The Man in the Iron Mask is a name given to a prisoner arrested and held in a number of jails. He was held in the custody for a period of 34 years and was forced to wear an iron mask. In the story, the King Louis XIII of France has two sons. They are twins born of Queen Anne of Austria and are exactly alike in physical structure, appearance, habits, manners and etiquette. One of the twins becomes the King Louis XIV, while the other is confined into the prison. Aramis, one of King’s guards, comes as a confessor and tells him the true story and also arranges his escape and installation as the king and replacement of the present king in prison in his place. A rebellion takes place. The rebels are crushed. The King’s severity and clemency go hand in hand. Finally, D'Artagnan, the Man of Iron, dies a hero’s death.
