You were just a starving child in 1212—barefoot, malnourished, and following a boy who claimed God would part the sea. He didn’t.
Welcome to the tragic, surreal nightmare that was the Children’s Crusade. In this immersive, slow-paced historical journey, we walk in your tattered footsteps—through mud, hunger, disease, betrayal, and blind faith. There’s no glory here. No salvation. Just the long, fading echo of a forgotten march.
This isn’t a legend. It’s a footnote.
And like thousands of real children in medieval France and Germany…
you never came home.
