THE CURSED KNIGHT TEMPLAR

As the other groups prepared for battle, one group was in for a rude awakening.

-Jerusalem, Church of the Holy Sepulchre

"NNNOOOOO!" A deafening cry of disappointment echoed in the almost empty church.

They saw a group of people, twelve in number - adorned in striking dark blue robes, hoods drawn over their heads, and cloaks elegantly fastened with silver pins. This group was the twelve 'lucky' Watchers selected by Apollo to accompany the Knight Templar treasure consignment.

What was the cause of this disappointment?
