Queen Consort of the Holy Land Prologue

It is almost 100 years since Christian armies from Europe seized Jerusalem. Europe suffers in the grip of repression and poverty. Peasant and lord alike flee to the Holy Land in search of fortune or salvation.

In the midst of struggling misfortune Jerusalem thrives under the rule of the just King Baldwin who has held a peace between the Saracens for over a decade. Now Jerusalem battles for its survival not against an outer threat, but instead one from within that would see to the destruction of this fragile peace forever.

But there is one person that could've stopped the conflict. The one person whose tales have become so interwoven through the passing of many centuries history has almost forgotten erasing her very existence from the earth itself. The consort of King Baldwin and Queen of all Jerusalem, Sahara daughter of Tiberius.

Will Sahara be enough to put an end to the foreboding war before it begins or will blood and death be brought upon the land she's always called home?
