Description
In 14th-century Europe, the Black Plague sweeps through the land, leaving in its wake death and despair. Entire landscapes fall eerily silent, with fear permeating every corner of society. As papal authorities denounce sin as the cause of the calamity, Geronimo and Isabel's forbidden love defies all societal norms.
Their bond is tested by spiritual conflict, the weight of fate, and the unforgiving realities of a world in turmoil. When Geronimo is enslaved and Isabel, heartbroken, seeks refuge in a convent, their tragic journey unfolds, echoing the timeless struggles of myth and history. The narrative delves into the rigid societal norms of the time, particularly the limited roles and freedoms of women and the oppressive nature of religious and feudal authorities.
This poignant tale masterfully weaves historical authenticity with themes of love, faith, and free will, offering a deep exploration of human longing and spiritual resilience.
