The bones of heretics smolder on the auto-da-fe'. David is a merchant of deceit, a poet of lies. A dwarf, he claims to be a prince of a lost tribe of Israel.

Destruction awaits the Muslim Turks if Christendom joins with his powerful desert tribe. But why hurry? The food and beds are warm, the ladies plump and willing.
