Rudolf of Habsburg is crowned Holy Roman Emperor but now his enemy Ottokar wants war.

In order for his son Albert to succeed, several enemies must be removed from his path, starting with his former ally King Ottokar of Bohemia. Meanwhile, Ibrahim is teaching philosophy and making his own secret deals.
