The film begins with the deaths of Aramis and Porthos in a fight, the suicide of Athos, and the death of d'Artagnan during the Siege of Maastricht (1673). Queen Anne of Austria has just lost her honor's defenders, while facing a political crisis. In need to find replacements for her deceased agents, Anne recruits the sons and daughters of the dead musketeers for a mission. When the original agents (and one of their foes) receive a temporary resurrection, they join their kids in the service of the queen.
