CRUSADER KING RICHARD I KILLS 2700 MUSLIM PRISONERS AFTER THE FALL OF ACRE

On August 20, 1191, the Massacre of Ayyadieh occurred during the Third Crusade after the fall of Acre when King Richard I had more than two thousand seven hundred Muslim Prisoners of war from the captured city beheaded in front of the Ayyubid armies of Sultan Saladin. Despite attacks by Muslim forces during the killings, the Christian Crusaders were able to retire in good order. Saladin subsequently ordered one thousand six hundred Crusader prisoners of war to be executed in retaliation.

The Conquest of Jerusalem and Third Crusade Overview

The Crusades, which occurred from the 11th to 13th centuries, were a series of religiously inspired military campaigns that had a major impact on both the Medieval Europe and the Middle East. These wars were fought between Christians and Muslims over control of the Holy Land, specifically Jerusalem. This essay will provide an overview of the background and events of these wars, as well as consider their lasting effects.

​​The First Crusade was initiated by Pope Urban II in 1095 due to increasing threats to Christian pilgrims traveling to Jerusalem from Muslim forces in the region. The Pope called upon all Christian leaders in Europe to join him in a holy war against the Muslims who had taken control of Jerusalem and much of the Holy Land. This led to a mass mobilization of European armies (Edbury, 1996). Many noblemen saw this as an opportunity to gain glory and renown while others sought to fulfill religious obligations or gain riches (Edbury, 1996). As such, any political or economic grievances existing between leaders in Europe were temporarily suspended as they united for a common purpose (Edbury, 1996).

​​In 1099, with support from many local Christians already living in the area, European forces successfully took control of Jerusalem after weeks of siege warfare followed by a bloody battle for the city’s streets (Edbury, 1996). Hundreds of thousands were killed during this campaign including both Muslim defenders and non-combatants caught up in the fighting. This marked a momentous victory for European forces and greatly enhanced their reputation throughout Christendom (Edbury, 1996).

​​Despite this success however, further crusades failed to expel Muslim forces from Palestine with many ending in defeat or retreat back into Europe (Edbury, 1996). The Third Crusade proved particularly significant as it was initiated by European leaders seeking revenge after Saladin recaptured Jerusalem from Christian forces in 1187 (Edbury 1996). Despite various attempts at negotiation between Christian and Muslim powers there was still no clear victor at its conclusion. Ultimately then Saladin retained control over much if not all of Palestine while Christians maintained some presence but lost direct control over Jerusalem (Edbury 1995).

​​The effects of these wars have been felt until this day with religious divisions still very much alive across Europe and elsewhere. At times tensions run high between communities tied together through centuries old enmities that trace their origin back all those years ago. In addition to providing impetus for other later wars such as those during the Reformation period or Napoleonic era it is clear that The Crusades left an enduring legacy which has molded our world even today.

​​In conclusion then it is clear that The Crusades had profound consequences for Medieval Europe and its surrounding regions which are still felt today. It is also notable how interlinked these events remain with one another so many centuries later making them important historical events worthy of study even now.

Proposal: instead of Desmond sets up a bakery, he sets up a new bar. But specifically manages to pull off such weird drinks from the future that everyone is fully 100% convinced that he’s really a witch.

Baker Desmond AU in Third Crusades Levant, Renaissance Italy and Colonial America

“This is witchcraft! Sorcery! The work of the devil!”

Desmond wondered if he should just book it.

Sure, it had taken time to create this bar. So many long hours finding the cheapest most okay building in a busy street. So many times talking to people to get them to open up to him and finally give his drinks a shot.

Well… more than a shot.

He knew cocktails would prove to be his selling point.

He even made mocktails for those who do not partake but he made sure they were more expensive than the usual because… well… profit.

Could Desmond be doing something else in his new lease of life?

Absolutely.

Was he going to?

No.

This was Altaïr’s territory… sorta.

Desmond had complete faith that Altaïr do as history demanded.

So Desmond could retire.

But, in all honesty…

He wished Altaïr could just assassinate Garnier de Naplouse already so he wouldn’t have to deal with this crap.

He should have just opened his bar away from Levant.

Maybe he should?

“Desmond, if you can just prove to the Grand Master’s representative that you don’t make concoction of the devil-”

The knight was one of his regulars. He was just trying to help (and keep his favorite bar alive).

But Naplouse’s representative.

He could see the greed in the man’s eyes as he continued to hurl garbage at him.

Desmond was pretty sure Naplouse didn’t even order this.

Desmond made sure he was kept busy with not being able to have enough ‘patients’ after all.

(Just because he’s not actively assassinating Altaïr’s targets doesn’t mean he would just a turn a blind eye to the atrocities he knew was happening)

No.

This man wanted to learn his secrets.

He wanted to encroach on Desmond’s hard-earned monopoly.

Desmond’s lips curved into the smile he had perfected after years of having to deal with the lowest trashes as a bartender.

“I understand.”

The greed in that man’s eyes shone brighter.

… as Desmond’s smile grew colder.

“I will pack up and leave then.”

“WHAT?!”

The exclamation of surprise came not only from the man harassing him and the knight who was trying to help him but from the three other guards who were just standing behind them.

An intimidation tactics if Desmond ever saw one.

He was sure they would trash his place if they were ordered to.

Reluctantly, of course.

But trashing one’s place was better than being called insubordinate and punished for it.

If things go to shit, Desmond could just kick all their asses and book it.

Desmond clasped his hands together as he said lightly, “Actually, someone came before and offered me a job in Ḥalab. I refused, of course.”

Which was true.

“But considering how-” Desmond stressed the word, “… unappreciated I am here.”

Desmond continued to smile as he said, “I believe it’s time for me to leave this place. Ḥalab is filled with many merchants with different ingredients I can use for my…”

Desmond glared at the greedy man as he continued to politely smile, “… concoctions.”

“Tha-that’s-” The man spluttered before shouting, “That is an admission of guilt! By not showing how you make them, you are admitting to being a devil worshiper.”

Desmond could see that none of his guards were buying that crap.

But they were powerless as well.

Desmond’s smile fell as he said, “If you’re not going to let me leave in peace, then I’ll just have to take you all down and keep you silent until I have to leave.”

“I promise not to give any of you lasting damage except you…” Desmond stared at the greedy man who flinched, “I’ll hurt you in a way that will make you remember your stupidity every single day.”

Desmond stepped towards him, making the knights take a step towards the man to protect him, the nearest one whispering, “Desmond, wai-”

“I won’t kill you.” Desmond smiled once more, making everybody freeze as a cold shudder went up their spine, “But you will waste the rest of your life wishing I had.”

.

.

That afternoon, Desmond the bartender left Acre. When the people checked his bar later that night, they saw men unconscious on the floor with one of Naplouse’s men tied to a chair, conscious but barely coherent.

Carved on his forehead was the words “1 Timothy 6:9”.

.

Desmond did not, in fact, go to Ḥalab.

But he did start his next bar in one of the cities that is part of the Silk Road.

#ah my bible knowledge once more comes to use #my religion teachers would be so proud /s #no altaïr in this one #i went with third crusades because #well it’s me #and also because renaissance italy would have loved desmond #and i wanted desmond to get annoyed XD #assassin's creed #desmond miles #ask and answer #teecup writes/has a plot #fic idea: assassin's creed

So you know how in Elden Ring, gathering an insane bounty of runes (aka killing lots and lots of things) seems to make you bigger?

You know, like rune bears. Red wolves and giant Miranda blossoms (rune wolves and rune flowers according to the code). Elite warriors such as the Black Knives, Cleanrot Knights, Tree Sentinels, etc? Hoarah Loux? Possibly Radahn?

Before age mellowed him out, Turtle Pope was a fearsome warrior known as... Turtle Paladin.

Rereading the Demon fight because I love watching my blorbos suffer, and oh my god Helsknight saying ‘You’re beginning to annoy me’ has me screaming again. he used Wels’ line. Like. how am I supposed to be okay with this.

I was wondering if anyone noticed that :D

I'm also currently rereading RnS [my sister has informed me rereading your story to see where it came from sometimes helps writer's block, and I will try any solution short of drinking snake oil at this point] and I only just got to chapter 13, but I will be joining you in blorbos suffering soon, anon.

#answering asks #anonymous #that was a very fun line to drop #something something knights and crusades #and hels and wels being a lot alike when they wanna be #besides trivializing the bad guy who was kicking your butt a few minutes ago is fun! #very indicative of third act power ups and the like! #rns asks
