The Springs of Cresson
1 May 1187 — a small force of Templars and Hospitallers charges a far larger Muslim army and is annihilated. The military orders’ recklessness bleeds the kingdom of its best knights weeks before the reckoning.
This is one scene of Chapter 6 — Saladin in The Crusades, 1095–1291.
