In the tumultuous year 1190 AD, Elric is known as many things: a thug, a thief, a bully, a bigot, a murderer—a truly despicable piece of gallows bait. The people of York have long yearned for respite from his reign of terror and receive it when Elric takes the cross and joins King Richard’s Crusade to the Holy Land.

Elric isn’t going alone; after an unforgivable act of violence on the grounds of York Castle, a discorporated demon, deprived of its body in a fierce battle fought over a century prior, manages to possess Elric and give him a mission. Elric and the demon, now sharing the same body, journey through the cities of the Mediterranean en route to the Holy Land, causing carnage wherever they land.

Along the way, they encounter a diverse cast of characters, including Saracen warriors, a world-weary knight drowning his sorrows, a skilled Nubian assassin, a mysterious Cypriot princess, and fellow outcasts from York. But when the enigmatic secret society known as the Lost Hunt dispatches its own agent to the Holy Land, Elric finds himself in an unlikely and unwilling alliance.

Their quests converge on a single, coveted prize: the Chalice. A Chalice with powers of restoration and resurrection. In the hands of Elric and his demonic companion, this ancient relic, now in a new and unexpected form, could bring about catastrophe on an unprecedented scale, endangering the lives of countless souls.
