The Norman philosophy is simple. No fighting today then either hunt dead animal or raid neighbor’s manor. Master not at home make merry with mistress and then seek absolution from confessor.
This saga moves on into the era of the Norsemen. French is the new first language as the sons of the Norman Conqueror struggle to build their power bases. Duke Robert's younger brothers do not take no for an answer.
The Western Mediterranean is a Norman lake. Sicily, and the southern land mass of Italy have fallen to their advance. The desire to make Jerusalem Christian becomes the Crusade of the age.
Deva’s marriage of convenience gives her access to courtly excess. The experience is not without its dangers as she loses one spouse and moves on to others.
The men of our once proud Saxon family are embroiled with the princely band of royal brothers.Waldere and Hengist are set to crusade, Geffrey to guard their assets at home.
King William the 2nd of England is content to allow his elder brother Robert to carry the Crusader banner while he consolidates his Norman gains. Prince Henry, the youngest balances one brother against another and covets more than his neighbors ’ox. Women if not a weakness are his passion.Deva if not quite the femme fatale may yield to his final demand.
This battle of the sexes has winners and losers. it is the nature of the game.
Read, enjoy.
