Der Trovere

The heroes escort the noble Leonore to a celebration hosted by the ruthless landowner Correro di Madaluna. Leonore, however, loves Manrico, a troubadour from the Zahori people, while Correro seeks her hand. Their rivalry conceals a tragic family secret involving a supposedly cursed infant, a witch burned at the stake, and a long-unresolved murder. Based on Verdi’s opera Il Trovatore, this intrigue and rescue scenario takes place in Almada. The characters’ choices determine whether Leonore and Manrico meet a tragic fate or escape Correro’s grasp. Social interaction plays a central role, with opportunities for investigation, negotiation, and combat.
