Season 3 begins with John of Gaunt and his allies launching a full insurrection in an attempt to take the throne from Richard II. In the ensuing conflict Richard II's lover, Robert de Vere, is killed, but the enemy claimant John of Gaunt is also slain. However the French King, Charles VI, falls into madness and his wife, Isabeau forges an alliance with Charles's younger brother Louis. Judging England to be a threat, Isabeau has her daughter, Queen of England Isabella of Valois, abducted while she stages a plot to depose Richard II and place John of Gaunt's son, Henry, on the throne as Henry IV. This plot succeeds and Henry is executed. However not everyone in England accepts the new king's rule and many including the de Vere family and the new king's sister, Elizabeth whom unite under the House of York, descendants of Henry III through Edmund if Langley. Season 3 takes place between 1398-1407.
