Young Nicolò was with a group of men on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem when they got captured by muslim raiders. The raiders take all their valuables, kill the older men and decide to sell the younger men as slaves.
But before they sell them they rape them and then castrate them. A few of the newly castreted men dies of blood loss or infections but Nicoló survives. The raiders want to bring the rest to the market when they got resuced by some knigts. Crusaders. They are, too, on their way to Jerusalem, but not on a pilgrimage.
Nicolò, who wants to take revenge on the Muslims, joins them and the knights train him on the way, teach him how to swordfight and all that. And then he's in Jerusalem and he and one of the muslim warriors kill each other...
They kill each other many times until they realize, whatever they do, they can't die. They become travel companions, they become friends and then more. But when he and Yusuf get to the part where they would get naked together, Nicolò always shies back because he's missing something down there...
