In 1135 Norman power remains entrenched across southern Wales while the English succession dispute weakens central authority. Gerald de Windsor governs in Deheubarth with his wife Nest ferch Rhys, but treachery within the ruling network destroys the fragile stability surrounding their family.

In Cantref Mawr, resistance gathers around Gwenllian ferch Gruffudd, a Welsh princess prepared to command in her husband's absence. As Nest acts to protect her household and Gwenllian carries rebellion towards Kidwelly, the conflict forces women of two connected dynasties into opposing positions within the same struggle for Wales.
