Jerusalem Stories

A prophecy foretells that only one girl is destined to cure the king.

She fell from the stars into a desert at war. They called her a prophecy. She called herself Elena. Between a ruthless Viper King and a dying Veiled Lion, Elena refused to bow, refused to break, refused to let the darkness take another child. "The kingdom will never fall. The people will never fall. And the king..." She found Amaury's eyes, held them. "...will never fall. In absolute."

She grapples with obedience and defiance. With faith and secrets. She is the daughter of a crusader who will go down in history... infamously. But what of her? What of her escape from him and the journey that follows? A journey that will take her to her father's foe. The most powerful warrior and conqueror the lands have seen in many years. The Sultan who grants victory. Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub. ~ Assalaamu Alaykum This is a story that will try to adhere to being as halal as possible for the sake of authenticity and accuracy with the pertinent characters and their actions according to the context of the era and the religion. But while I am religious and all three main Abrahamic religions are part of my faith (in a sense I am ecumenical with all 3) I am therefore non-denominational so I don't practice Islam or the others in complete adherence to all tenets and rituals. So as a writer with passion for certain eras and historical figures, I take liberty in writing stories about them, with no intention to offend these people or anyone else, and I can't promise every little detail will be accurate or always halal (maybe sometimes there is haram intentionally because of certain characters personalities). Keep this in mind before reading. Graphic content warning: strong language, and blood and violence only

King Baldwin knows that he will soon die, but what happens when he falls in love with a princess from another country and imagines a future with her?

Year 1174, a boy at age thirteen is suddenly thrust into power upon the death of his father, King Amalric. He inherits a kingdom at war--the Kingdom of Jerusalem. However, he possesses a secret. He is dying of leprosy. Knowing he could be cast out of society forever, and knowing even if he remained king, he would suffer much and die young, King Baldwin IV determines to rule to the best of his ability although he often faces impossible odds with his inexperience and illness, but he refuses to give up. This is a collection of poetry and short stories based on the real life of King Baldwin IV. To read the series I'm writing based on him, go to my website under my pen name, Serafia Cross, at www.serafiacross.com, and you will find the series, 'The Last King of Legends' there. Though I try to keep as close to the truth as possible in the events of Baldwin's life, at times I exercise creative license and explore the 'what ifs'. I hope you enjoy them! Thank you!

"Time and Faith" is a philosophical and historical journey through three epochs of Jerusalem, where the destinies of young men reflect the eternal quest for true revelation. In ancient times, while studying the Torah, young hearts face the dilemma: follow the letter of the law or heed the call of mercy and justice. In the early Christian era, the conflict between reading the Gospel independently and blindly adhering to church dogmas reveals the contradiction between a direct encounter with the Creator's Word and the complexity of traditions. In the 16th century, Muslim youths debate why the Quran-the pure Word of the Creator-requires hundreds of hadiths to be understood, reminding us that true faith is born in the heart, not in accumulated interpretations. This book invites readers to ponder how to preserve the original purity of revelation amid the labyrinth of human interpretations through the ages.
