In the year of grace 1192, Arn de Gothia returns to Götaland after twenty years of exile as a Templar knight in the Holy Land. He returns with great projects and a considerable fortune, longing to reunite with his beloved Cecilia and seeking peace between the warring lineages. Arn brings with him builders, artisans, and doctors, both Christian and Saracen, to contribute to his task. This is the starting point of a new era in Europe, which will lay the foundations for a new concept of State. The epic battle of Gestilren, in 1210, marks the climax of this third and final part of Jan Guillou's story about Arn Magnusson and Cecilia Algotsdotter, and the creation of the kingdom of Sweden at the end of the 12th century.
