The story
However, Francis II quickly asserts himself with sweeping, radical reforms—redistributing church wealth and welcoming refugees—which alarm the conservative cardinals.
Meanwhile, the cardinals seek a safer, centrist replacement: Sir John Brannox, an aristocratic theologian famed for his work The Middle Way.
As John Paul III assumes his role, he is quickly entangled in the Vatican's political games.
