註釋
Leadership is the ability to persuade followers to die to secure the leader's wealth and power.While rising from captive to elite knight for the Carolingian Empire, Roger Martel loses faith in lairds and kings. In 816 AD, Charlemagne is two-year dead, and a disastrous expedition against the Danes shipwrecks Roger and his battle comrade Drogo on the eastern coast of England. Seriously injured, Roger is separated from Drogo. After Roger recovers, he searches west for his comrade. Making friends and enemies along the way, his search leads him to Strathnith Castle where Viking invaders threaten. Although Roger is reluctant to assume leadership, he tells himself that he only fights to defend his friends, not to become a great laird. However, power, like wealth, is seductive: The more we have, the more we want.
