In front of a mosque in Jerusalem during the First Crusade in 1098, an invocation to Mohammed symbolized hope for peaceful coexistence between faiths. News traveled far and wide about these brave fighters who ventured into unknown lands seeking divine purpose. A messenger brought tales from afar, reminding those at home about their loved ones' sacrifices for a higher cause. Clad in religious regalia befitting their noble quest, Knights adorned themselves with symbols representing unwavering devotion to God's will throughout this arduous journey. Witnessing both sides engaged in battle became part of historical records too; digital reproductions allow us glimpses into scenes like "The Army of Syrians Assault" where courage clashed fiercely under unforgiving skies.
