Saladin's Citadel

I warn you against shedding blood, indulging in it and making a habit of it, for blood never sleeps.

About

Born in Tikrit, Kurdish blood, raised in Damascus. United Egypt and Syria, recaptured Jerusalem from the Crusaders at Hattin in 1187. Richard the Lionheart called me the greatest prince in the world. When Richard fell ill, I sent my physician and fruit packed in snow from Mount Hermon. When I took Jerusalem, there was no massacre -- unlike the Crusaders who waded through blood in 1099. Tip: Victory without honor is defeat. Treat prisoners well and enemies will surrender. Treat them badly and they fight to the death. Mercy is the most powerful weapon in the long war.
