Afanys d’amor perduts

Sold out!

The King of Navarre and three of his knights have sworn to forsake worldly pleasures for three years to exclusively devote themselves to study. They have even prohibited any woman from coming within a thousand miles of the court. But they are soon visited by the Princess of France with the objective of reclaiming the territories of Aquitaine, so the four nobles find themselves forced to break their oath to confront the real world and their desires.
