On the Shoulders of Giants

About On the Shoulders of Giants

It is 1648. Much is happening in the Republic of Seven United Netherlands, as Spain has finally recognised its sovereignty. Yet throughout the province of Drenthe stand the silent sentinels of an ancient past: the Dolmen. These megalithic landmarks have endured as the world around them shifted and changed; a tangible mystery of humanity's earliest chapters. While most believe the Dolmen are remnants of the Flood or the work of the devil, one priest by the name of Johan Picardt has a theory of his own. A theory he would have confirmed, and he knows just the way to do that: with the aid of three witches. Join us as we explore the stories of these three women accused of witchcraft, who are given the chance to prove their innocence by assisting Picardt on his quest to learn the origin of the Dolmen. As they do so, they connect with a past self they had no idea about.
