Saturday 17th October 1192 AD
Late in the night as starlight pierced the dark Jerusalem night sky. The wind was blowing through the empty narrow streets, bringing with it a chill to make one shiver in their robes. October was generally a dry month in this city, since Yosef and Commander Gallo's squad arrived it had only rained twice.
Yosef left the house of Aram Noah. They had a lengthy and productive conversation when the children went to sleep. Despite being strangers to each other, the circumstances which had brought them together established a Christian bond of brotherhood between them.
He was deeply moved and touched by the battles Aram had to battle from the moment his wife fell ill until now. Yosef promised to help him pick himself up somehow so that he can provide for his family.
