1629, Transylvania: Reigning prince Bethlen Gábor has Don Diego, the Spanish chronicle knight be brought to his court in order to make him record his life and deeds for posterity. Don Diego, however, digs up things the prince wanted to hide as well : the killing of Báthory Gábor, letting Lippa to the Turks. Therefore he will be disgraced. It is just immediately before the death of the prince that both the court and Don Diego realise the essence of Bethlen's politics: "rope walking" between the two world powers in order to sustain Transylvania. Bethlen dies and his successors have to bear fear, uncertainty and the burden of his belatedly realised greatness. (jakelijan virallinen teksti)
