Leonor Teles did not forget that they had belonged to the murderer of Inês de Castro. But no, despite sharing the same fiery hair, the same passion for life and the same ambition for power, no, Leonor would not have the same fate as her cousin. She would be queen in life. She would have power in her hands.

The tone of criticism increases even more when it is rumored that she has become Count Andeiro's lover.
