As Cristoforo Colombo sails to discover new lands, his life is thrown into a storm unsuspectingly designed by his enemies; unknown forces lurk behind him as he sails on to the New Indies. His successful discovery and titles as Governor, Admiral, and Viceroy, turn his voyages into a long life of threats. A conspiracy turns against his life when the ambitious Pope Alexander, the Spaniard Borgia, heeding counsel from Nicolo Machiavelli, embarks in a plan to put the New Indies under the power of the papacy. Sunken into poverty when the Spain does not pay his rights over the New Indies, Colombo is coerced by Pope Alexander into a piracy commission. Colombo raids the Spaniard paymasters ship carrying over a hundred thousand gold coins for the Crusaders. Unbeknown to him Pope Alexander denounces him as the pirate behind the raid of the Spaniards' galleon. Colombo to Terra Firma seeking the Promised Land for the Hebrew people, is catapulted into modern times. The unsold saga is discovered by its archivist in modern times and delivered to Cristoforo Colombo last descendant in America Elena DiCorso in Boston.
