In 1095, the Pope promised a ticket to salvation for any man who took up the cross. A holy war was born. But what if the path to heaven led directly through hell? This is not the epic of shining knights, but the survival log of starving ghosts. We uncover a journey fueled by divine faith that devolved into the unspeakable taboo of cannibalism; a holy relic dug from the dirt that resurrected a dying cause; and a river of blood that ultimately washed away a sacred vow. Forget the history you know. This is the dark, forbidden truth of the First Crusade.

About the author
Cogitator
I am Cogitator, a traveler navigating the myriad dimensions of storytelling. My work knows no fixed boundaries. I journey from the stark landscapes of realism to the fluid dreamscapes of the surreal, from the whispers of history to the prophecies of a world yet to come.
In every story, I strive to explore the complexities of the human condition and find a thread of truth within fiction.
If a story of mine resonates with you, I would consider it the highest honor. I look forward to sharing this journey with you.View all by Cogitator
