By The Fiftieth Year Of His Reign, Louis Xiv Has Made France The Most Powerful State In The Western World. Yet The Sun King's Appetite For Glory Knows No Bounds. In A Bold Stroke, He Sends His Natural Philosopher On An Expedition To Seek The Source Of Immortality -- The Rare, Perhaps Mythical, Sea Monsters.
