It's not long before Reynolds and the princess' entourage are chased into hiding in an abandoned ruin, where the small band of guardsmen plan their escape. Meanwhile, a growing army of renegades surrounds the ruin and prepares to attack at the command of Augustus Talbert (Eric Roberts), a vengeful fallen nobleman snubbed by the princess. Meanwhile, the feisty Gwendolyn has met her romantic match in Reynolds, which only infuriates Talbert all the more. ~ Buzz McClain, Rovi
