1146 - Edessa falls to the forces of Zengi. In response, Pope Eugene III preaches the Second Crusade. His call to arms is heard all over Europe, even in the remote town of Coningsburgh where William de Warenne is inspired to take the cloth cross. However, he soon finds that religious zeal is one thing, but the harsh realities of fighting a jihad driven enemy in a torrid climate are quite another.
