Outline

Pope Clement V, under the influence of King Philip, de Nogaret and Gawain, declares the Templars to be heretics. Jacques de Molay and some of the Templars hold up in the Chartres Temple rather than surrender to King Philip’s army, but they soon realise that they have been duped. Suspecting the trap, Landry, along with other Templars, refuses to march out of the Temple, which is attacked by King Philip’s army. During the battle, King Philip’s men attempt to use gunpowder to blow up the gate, but this is thwarted thanks to a Templar archer. When King Philip’s army try to build a siege tower, Landry leads an expedition into the camp and successfully sabotages it, but unfortunately three Templars are left behind in the camp. Under threat of torture (which did not work on de Molay) one of them discloses the location of the secret gate into the Chartres Temple. King Philip and his army attack the Temple using the secret gate, and defeat the Templars. At the palace, Isabella asks two of her lovers to rape Margaret after drugging her. Isabella later betrays these men and has them killed.
