The Holy City Beckons
They say that in 1099, when the
Second Crusade took Jerusalem, the streets ran so
deep with blood that a man on horseback would have
his progress slowed by the flood. They say that the
Cainites who followed the invaders went mad then,
and that few who aided in the sack of the city were
ever seen again. They also tell stories of ancient
Cainites lurking in the Valley of Hinnom, where the
lepers dwell, and of monstrous acts of faith and devotion,
beneath the Temple Mount. They say many things about
Jerusalem, for it is a place of wonder and faith,
of blood and fear. And now its gates lie open. Enter,
if you dare.
