Plot Summary

The first crusade to free the Holy Land has ended. A mass of weary knights, squires, soldiers of fortune and Priests are making their way home across a Europe that has changed forever. George (James Purefoy), a handsome English knight, unsettled by the horrendous bloodletting he witnessed in Palestine, desires to hang up his sword and settle down to a quiet, peaceful life. On returning to England, he heads north where he's heard the land is good and the population sparse, and of a kindly King named Edgar (Simon Callow). He finds King Edgar in a terrible state. His beautiful daughter, Princess Lunna (Piper Perabo) has recently disappeared. In return for a small plot of land, George agrees to search for Princess Lunna. With Edgar's faithful servant, Elmendorf (Bill Treacher), George sets out. George discovers the Princess and the truth behind her strange disappearance. The quest now set before them ends in a love, a lie, and a legend that has lasted for a thousand years. Written by Schleppy

Quotes George: [George and Tarik are walking on the beach, about to part paths] Tarik, things won't be the same without you. What will I do with myself? When you're not praying five times a day.
Tarik: [laughs] Do exactly the same thing you would do when I *was* praying.
George: Oh, that's impossible.
Tarik: Why?
George: Because I was stealing your food.
