They had unparalleled wealth thanks to HER fortune and they had considerable respect thanks to HIS father. And they had the great advantage of the aid and counsel of Abbot Sugar, one of the truly extraordinary people of his day.In this episode, we learn more about this important figure of the day, the famed Abbot that was counsel to not only Alienor and Louis Capet, but to her Father, as well.
