It's the year 1242 and a knight stares out towards his enemies on a frozen battlefield, soon a queen will make him become that contemptible thing which lurks in the shadows and watches with eyes aflame with a greedy hunger; a hunger which would carry him through the ages into a world where two superpowers play a precarious game of chess across a boundary of reinforced concrete and barbwire. In his journeys he will meet a great mind, walk the streets of Victorian London and participate in the horrors of World War II only to find himself jealous of a mortal man who strives to raze a wall erected by the tyranny of a victorious army. From the sky come gifts which will plant a seed of hope in the hearts of children living among the squalor of a devastated capitol, a hope which will be cherished by a Stasi agent struggling to do what he was meant to do and a West German woman finding truth in the happiness of people. As a wall divides a city and a passageway creates an unlikely partnership, a murderer is bathing East Berlin in blood.
