God Wills It!
INTRO:
The year is 1095, and trouble has reached the Kingdoms of Christ. The Empire of Greece (Byzantine) had been failing to the Saracens (Muslims) for years, and it appeared only a matter of time before Constantinople, the Capital of the Hellenes and an important City of Christendom, would fall to Saracen hands. The Pope, the highest spiritual authority of Western Christians, and the Roman (Byzantine) Emperor, the highest ruler of Eastern Christians, had convened several meetings and agreed that something had to be done, not just about the Saracens, but about the violence between the Christians. Soon, the Pope shall declare a Holy War against the Saracens with 2 main objectives; save the Greek Empire, and retake Jerusalem in the name of Christ.
Meanwhile, in the land of the Muslims, the word of Allah was appearing to fail; the Power of the Caliph had been greatly diminished by various powers, and dangerous Alzanadiqa (Heretics) have been gaining power in lands once held by the Righteous. The Muslims, feeling a sense that society is on a decline, have started turning to more Orthodox and Hard Line interpretations of the Qu'ran and the Hadiths, regardless of what the Caliph commands. As the Sultans and Emirs of Allah fight each other for land and power, they have no idea that soon the Latins (Christians) would be upon them.
