DISCLAIMER:

ANYTHING I WRITE HERE IS JUST RANDOM BULLSHIT, EVEN THOUGH IT'S HISTORICAL FICTION! There may be historical figures but I will try my best to respect them and be as truthful to their characters as much as possible.

Three pairs on the year 1180, although separated geographically, will soon meet by chance, mainly from a journey. A pilgrim's walk to some, but all knew it was of religious fervor made from the call of the pope.

The first pair, we follow the journey, internal or external, of a warden and his ward. They reside on Gwynedd, the kingdom of North Wales, which borders the mighty English and its Marcher Lords, alongside with its disjointed and weak neighbours on the south and eastern side. The ward, royal and high as he may be, was only a child. He had none to be with, one that he could trust, other than his warden. But what if that trust is slowly being shattered as the secrets of the warden has come out.

The next, a Doux and a Komēs. The Seljuks attempt to take Anatolia, and most of all, Manuel Komnenos, he who was proclaimed Emperor, had now died within the same year. Rather than waste his time, the Doux takes the chance to take the throne. The empire has had enough of Latins. There's one problem however. The imperial coffers are not doing as well, and there are enemies on every side, either from the court or their neighbours from the east and west.

Last, we are with a nearly dying burgrave and his closest friend, a landgrave, who tries his best to get the medical help the wounded man needs. The monks were helpful, but they had made quite a mess because of a book they have not fully delved into. The author, surprisingly, has the same name of the warden. But, perhaps the medical help wouldn't heal a painful event that will happen within the glory of taking the holy land.
