The crusade washed over Europe, directed at the heathens in the north. The resistance of the pagans was small but fierce, and in the end they couldn’t hold back the wrath of the Catholic kingdoms. It left all that manpower, money, and ambition with nowhere to go. So they descended south, scourging all who spoke differently, Christian or not. Taking all they could. Giving nothing but death back. God wept.
