The second part of a four-part novelistic fresco about the life of the last Přemysl kings. After years of skilful diplomacy and fighting, Přemysl I. Otakar succeeds in obtaining the Golden Bull of Sicily, thereby asserting his son's claim to the hereditary rule. The "one-eyed king" Václav I (lost an eye in his youth while hunting) has been preparing for this task since childhood, he was already crowned during his father's lifetime, and after his death in 1230, he took the throne himself. He builds a royal court, tries to control the Austrian territory and
overcome family problems. Will he be able to live up to his great father's legacy? An eloquent and readable message from the life of the famous Přemysl family.
