The events taking place in France have repercussions in a large part of Europe. The kingdom is the birthplace of Gothic cathedrals, the Grand Court and the Courts of Love. European trade is largely centered around the fairs of Champagne, whose provinois'denarius prevails throughout Europe. The ability to influence France and its powerful is essential for the politically minded Cainites of Europe. And even those who try to turn away from it are caught in its web, at the mercy of insatiable predators. The reconquests of Philippe II Auguste on the Plantagenêt territories give back to the royal domain a splendor that it had not known for centuries. The King of France is once again a powerful monarch and the young and pious Louis IX exercises his authority with the same severity as his grandfather, crushing the revolts of ambitious lords guided in the shadows by immortal creatures with long teeth. The massacres of Cainites during the Albigensian Crusade represent a most serious warning for the Damned who would think of themselves as safe, isolated in their shelters, protected by their ghouls and puppets of flesh. The Inquisition is growing at a frightening speed and the convents of the begging orders are taking over the cities, bringing danger as close as possible.
