"She was loved,
she was feared,
she was the Queen of Dieu d'Amour.
She had a glorious past but no future"

The Queen of Dieu D'amour
The castle of St. Hilarion in Cyprus was named Dieu d'Amour in medieval time and was ruled by a series of Crusaders' Lusignan Queens with a glorious past. That's as far as history goes in this collection of short stories and tales invoking deeply rooted collective memories and longings. Most of the stories and tales are set in medieval times but some are timeless pieces of love and despair and the search for inner strength
