Following Margareta's departure from the story, King Erik is now ruling Sweden and the rest of the Kalmar Union on his own. He has plenty of meetings dealing with the fall out of Margareta's death and it starts off really well for him. However, things will soon go from bad to worse in the war with Holstein over Slesvig and Erik will land himself in trouble that will only spiral from here. He earns a new nickname and at the same time his wife Queen Filippa gets some new land and responsibilities.
