All ten episodes from the first season of the Emmy Award-nominated
historical drama series focusing on the life and romances of the
young King Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys Meyers). Set in Renaissance
Britain during the early part of Henry's reign, the series portrays
the passionate and irascible king, his Spanish Queen Catherine
(Maria Doyle Kennedy), his ministers Sir Thomas More (Jeremy
Northam) and Cardinal Wolsey (Sam Neil), and a host of would-be
mistresses and wives. As bold and passionate about his country as
he is about his women, Henry's obsession with ensuring his legacy
leads to the beheading of both friends and foes, the waging of wars
and a challenge to the Catholic Church - events that forever
changed the face of the British Empire. Episodes comprise: 'In Cold
Blood', 'Simply Henry', 'Wolsey, Wolsey, Wolsey!', 'His Majesty,
the King', 'Arise, My Lord', 'True Love', 'Message to the Emperor',
'Truth and Justice', 'Look to God First' and 'The Death of Wolsey'.
A smoldering tale of romance and revenge set in the world of the
New York Times best seller Dawn of the Arcana! Ajin boys who
show signs of special abilities are conscripted to serve in the
imperial palace as beast-servants—status symbols and shields for
their royal masters, to be kept or discarded on a whim. When they
were children, Rangetsu’s twin brother Sogetsu was ripped from
her arms and sent to the palace to attend Prince Tenyou as a
beast-servant, where he quickly fell victim to bloody dynastic
intrigues. Now in a world that promises only bitterness,
Rangetsu’s one hope at avenging her brother is to disguise
herself as a man and find a way into the palace!

A smoldering tale of romance and revenge set in the world of the
New York Times best seller Dawn of the Arcana! Ajin boys who show
signs of special abilities are conscripted to serve in the imperial
palace as beast-servants-status symbols and shields for their royal
masters, to be kept or discarded on a whim. When they were
children, Rangetsu's twin brother Sogetsu was ripped from her arms

where he quickly fell victim to bloody dynastic intrigues. Now in a
world that promises only bitterness, Rangetsu's one hope at
avenging her brother is to disguise herself as a man and find a way
into the palace! Sogetsu may have been released from the emperor's
cruelty, but he's not yet completely free of his ordeal. In order
to survive the experiments he suffered through, Sogetsu's mind
splintered into many personalities...and only one of them made it
out of the inner palace. Now he is racked with guilt over being the
wrong Sogetsu, and the agony of feeling unworthy of being rescued
is pushing him into unexpected action!
“Vinieron por su marido. Las camionetas llegaron con estruendo,
los ocupantes bajaron entre gritos, sus nietos jugaban en la calle,
ambos corrieron asustados. Eran las siete y media de la tarde. Los
siguieron al menos seis hombres. Otros quedaron afuera, de guardia.
En el rústico patio interior, MarÃa Ordóñez sólo pudo abrazar
a los pequeños. La única habitación con puerta que habÃa en el
interior de la casa era la de abajo. Los invasores la derribaron.
Pero no habÃa nadie detrás. Se apoderaron de una laptop, una
tablet, una cámara, dos celulares: las herramientas de trabajo del
reportero. Él dormÃa en la planta superior. El cansancio de dos
dÃas de trabajo duro no permitió que el ruido alertara a Moisés
Sánchez. Probablemente despertó al sentir los golpes, o acaso
apenas cuando lo arrastraban fuera. Abrazar a los niños, fuerte:
hasta eso alcanzó el poder de MarÃa. Con sus nietos miró cómo
se llevaban al abueloâ€. The Truth Can't be Killed "They came for
her husband. The trucks arrived with a crash, the occupants came
down screaming, their grandchildren played in the street, both ran
scared. It was seven thirty in the afternoon. They were followed by
at least six men. Others stayed outside, on duty. In the rustic
interior courtyard, MarÃa Ordóñez could only hug the little
ones. The only room with a door inside the house was the one below.
The invaders tore her down. But there was no one behind. They
seized a laptop, a tablet, a camera, two cell phones: the
reporter's work tools. He slept on the top floor. The fatigue of
two days of hard work did not allow the noise to alert Moisés
Sánchez. He probably woke up when he felt the blows, or perhaps
just when they dragged him out. Embrace children, strong: until
that reached the power of Mary. With his grandchildren he watched
how they took the grandfather.
