An Unwise King

Alfred's father has died, and now his older brother is king. John is a foolish and incompetent ruler. He only thinks of his own desires and not what is best for the kingdom. Alfred tries to keep an eye on things but is limited in what he can do since he has to be careful not to appear to be in opposition to his brother. John's neglect of the kingdom leads to poverty, riots, pestilence, and war. Can Alfred and the other lords save the kingdom before it is completely destroyed?
