There, he learns both spiritual and martial skills, preparing for a destiny that will lead him to be a soldier of Christ in the Holy Land. Upon returning home, he becomes embroiled in the political intrigues of Sweden and, after a mistake that separates him from his beloved Cecilia, he is sent to fight in the Crusades for twenty years.
