Entrusted with shaping the future of the Imperium and its Great Houses by imparting wisdom, the Sisterhood is the beating heart of government, yet it doesn't get final say. That responsibility lies solely with Emperor Corrino, though heavily reliant as he is on his Truthsayer Kasha (Jihae), he knows full-well that he's open to manipulation.
It's in this climate of mutual suspicion that Valya makes moves to put a Sister on the throne, but the more influence the Sisterhood gains, the more enemies it makes. And Valya finds a formidable foe in Desmond Hart (Travis Fimmel), an ex-soldier with the Emperor's ear, a grudge against the Sisterhood, and a destructive nature.
