Synopsis

Maud's return to Rutshire kindled Declan’s anger while Tony drew her toward Corinium. Rupert sought a path through the impasse, yet past transgressions rose again to haunt him. Venturer enjoyed an unexpected stroke of fortune, but as *A Midsummer Night’s Dream* dissolved into disarray, Tony ensnared Maud with visions of renown. Her captivating portrayal of Titania revealed that ambition carried a price far steeper than she had imagined.
