[00:00:00]Imagine the heart of a hero, but the face of a monster. [music] At 16, Baldwin IV won Jerusalem's greatest battle.

[00:00:09]He was the Leper King, a hero who led his army from behind a beautiful, cold, silver mask.

[00:00:16]The disease was slowly consuming his flesh, [music] yet he still held a sword to protect his city.

[00:00:22]But his biggest victory was also [music] his tragedy.
