The King's Fifth

Adventurous tale of conquest, greed, and morality.

If you have a thirst for historical adventures tinged with moral quandaries, "The King's Fifth" offers an intriguing journey. It's not just the allure of gold or the echo of conquistadors' footsteps that you'll follow; it's the rich tapestry of a young man's inner conflicts amidst the unrelenting pull of duty and desire.
