England and Normandy, circe 1347
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!
- "Into Battle"

My name is Hill, Thomas Hill, and I'm in Oxford during the English Civil War deciphering ciphers! I can't understand a word of these cryptic messages! Not many 'Hill' girls either, only the one who has rather strange eyes.

Calais, 1347
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled

I'm at Hampton Court in 1543 and have just been betrothed to the king. Not looking forward to my wedding night at all!

It's 1832 in Washington DC and wondering if Andrew Jackson will be re-elected.

I'm in India in the 1980s. What a rollercoaster of a life I'm having!
