known evidence. Many people want the shroud to be proof of Christ's mission but Knight and Lomas prove that it is not. The truth behind the shroud is an epic story of pride greed powerlust and suffering. It had been prophesised that the Messiah would return shortly after 1230AD. Jacques de Molay was born in 1244 became a Templar in 1265 and Grand Master om 1297; the Templars regarded themselves as the guardians of the secret teachings of Jesus. In 1307 Molay was arrested at the instigation of the Pope who was alarmed at the spread of this influence - and was crucified. Using the latest scientific techniques the authors prove that the shroud Molay was wrapped in is the one now known as the Turin Shroud.

I was a fan of oblivion and was told that this game
was very much like it but it had a better combat system, and
