A Redemptive Crusade. A Test of Faith. A Reckoning with the Past.

Marching eastward under Duke Robert of Normandy, Etienne carries the weight of his sins like a stone upon his soul. Every step toward Jerusalem is a trial. Each battle tests his worth. The scorching desert erodes his strength while relentless hunger and the cries of the dying grind away at his resolve. Guilt festers beneath the surface. Doubt gnaws at him.

Treachery and disease lurk in the shadows. Battle looms ever closer. When Etienne makes a desperate vow to serve the Church if survival grants him another chance, his faith and convictions are tested in ways he never imagined.

Through blood-soaked battlefields and the unforgiving desert, salvation remains as distant as the Holy City itself. When faced with the ultimate test, will conviction be enough? Or will the weight of his past drag him into darkness?
