Swept up in the religious fervour surrounding the First Crusade, Christo leaves his home and joins the Armies of the faithful. Uncertain if he will ever return or if he will live to see its conclusion. Alone among foreign peoples and exposed to mockery for his Saxon Heritage he struggles to integrate himself among his comrades.
The Crusade takes him far from the world he knows, and he experiences customs and places unlike those of his homeland and begins his journey towards cities he has only heard from the bible.
Along the way he will experience the Hardships of war, the intricacies of diplomacy, the pain of betrayal and the joy of victory.
