In the 17th century, D'Artagnan, the former captain of Louis XIII's musketeers, is aboard a ship bound for America and bemoans the fact that he is married to a woman he does not love. As he ponders his fate, D'Artagnan remembers how he became embroiled in this predicament: After the king dies, France is thrown into turmoil, and the king's power-hungry brother-in-law, the Duc de Valdac, becomes regent. De Valdac plots to marry Princess Anne to the pliant Philip of Spain and wrest control from the ailing prime minister, Rochard.
