In the aftermath of the Battle of Marj Ayyun, the Kingdom of Jerusalem is once again under threat from its most powerful enemy, the Sultan of Damascus and Egypt, Salah eh Din. Honfroy, a young lord of Outremer, is in a conflict that rages along the River Jordan, the frontier between the Christians and Moslems.
