Arn Magnusson remembers, as a fearful crusading templar, his youth in fractured Sweden's West Gotland. He and his brother Erskin were friends with king Erik's son Knut, until a neighboring warlord killed the king to seize the crown during the local church's solemn consecration. After Arn's seemingly fatal fall and 'miraculous survival', his mother insisted on keeping a promise to God to offer the boy as oblate to the regional abbey. There abbot Henri allowed father Guilbert, a former templar, to add warrior skills to his monastic education. After an incident in which he was forced to kill a bride-robber in a duel, Arn tries to prevent his family's feud with a haughty neighbor's getting bloodily out of hand.

The haughty grandmaster's expedition ends as disastrously as Arn warned: the crusader army is annihilated by Saladin's at the battle of Hattin. The sultan's brother however rescues badly wounded Arn from the battlefield, nurses him to health and accompanies him home to Sweden. They arrive just in time to prevent Cecioa, who was told all Templars were dead, accepting to becoming abbess for the family's political sake. Their patriarchs' objections result in the bishop forbidding a wedding, but the archbishop undoes that after an intervention from the bride's friend, Knud's queen. The happy couple is now united with their strapping son Magnus, squire to the Folkung patriarch.

After happy years for Arn and his finally reunited family, king Knut is dying, spelling a bloody civil war. Fearing a Danish intervention would be fatal, the Folkungs arrange a deal by which Karl, whose father's throne Knut re-usurped, succeeds but must adopt Knut's firstborn Erik as crown prince. Rightly suspecting foul play, Arn sends his Danish former Templars squire along as supposed turncoat, in fact Eric's bodyguard. After he prevents Eric and his brothers, one of which is however slain, being cowardly drowned, Arn takes command of a revolt, heading for an epically bloody battle.
