At a stroke her position was transformed. Matilda now had a route to England and the throne. Robert's lands in Normandy gave her a safe corridor to the coast. Stephen was still the anointed king but for the first time, cracks were beginning to appear in his regime. How far would Matilda go to fight for the crown that she believed was hers? |
