Prologue — Shadows Behind the Crown

I am Iris.
Among the world’s royal families, the British monarchy radiates a unique presence.
But behind its glittering crown lies a darker tale — one of bloodlines entwined with secret societies.
The Holy Grail, the Knights Templar, and the Freemasons—
Perhaps the crown is not merely a symbol of power, but a sign of an unbroken “lineage of control.”

Chapter 1 — The Holy Grail and the “Blood of Kings”

According to legend, Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene bore a child.
This bloodline is said to have extended into the Merovingian dynasty of France and beyond, spreading across Europe.
In this interpretation, the Holy Grail is not a cup at all, but the very bloodline of Christ.

Over time, this lineage allegedly connected with European nobility and, eventually, the British royal family.
Thus, royalty was not seen merely as rulers but as inheritors of “divine blood.”

Chapter 2 — The Legacy of the Knights Templar

The medieval Knights Templar were said to be guardians of the Grail.
During the Crusades, they acquired sacred treasures and came to dominate Europe’s financial system.
Yet their power drew fear and envy, leading to brutal suppression by kings and the Church.

Urban legend claims that the treasures and bloodline safeguarded by the Templars found their way into the British monarchy—
entrusting the royal family with the role of “heirs of the Grail.”

Chapter 3 — The House of Windsor and the Elite

Today’s British royal family is known as the House of Windsor,
but their lineage traces back to German origins.
Amid World War I, the family changed its name from Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to Windsor—an effort to distance itself from its German ties.

Yet conspiracy theorists argue that the bloodline weaves directly into other European royals and powerful dynasties such as the Rothschilds.
They see this as proof that “the monarchy and financial aristocracy are two faces of the same hidden power.”

Chapter 4 — The Freemason Connection

The Freemasons, known for spreading Enlightenment ideals, are steeped in symbols and rituals—
many of which curiously overlap with royal traditions.
The compass and square, the “All-Seeing Eye”—
these motifs also appear in royal crests and palace architecture.

“The monarchy as the visible authority, the Masons as the hidden power.”
Together, they are said to manipulate the course of world events—
a theory whispered in urban legends to this day.

Epilogue — Bloodline or Illusion?

Is the British royal bloodline nothing more than genealogy?
Or does it trace back to a sacred lineage—the mystical legacy of the Grail?

One thing is certain: the monarchy remains a symbol far beyond ordinary comprehension.
Blood, power, and the shadows of secret societies—
this combination may shape the course of history yet to come.

Next time—another fragment of hidden truth awaits us.
I will return to guide you once more.
