The Work of Heaven.

[aleathiel]

Title: The Work of Heaven
Pairing: Baldwin IV of Jerusalem/Balian of Ibelin (Edward Norton/Orlando Bloom)
Rating: NC17
Disclaimer: Some of the dialogue belongs to Twentieth Century Fox.

AN: Looking at the trailers, the king’s mask does not appear to have a mouth hole, just eyes. In my world, there are both. For a start, simply because conversation would be oddly muffled otherwise. And also so that he can drink etc.

For razzleslash, the final word on everything, for not mocking my punctuation lapses too much. For eirien_rhovan who created the beautiful banner above and put up with my constantly changing my mind and asking her to alter it. And for perseph2hades, without whom this fic would (as well as not being written at all) be longer, messier and much less focused. Thank you.

This fic was written before the release of the film. It may not stick exactly to canon. That said:
Warning: Contains spoilers for Kingdom of Heaven

“The king would make this kingdom a Heaven on Earth, Balian. If we have the strength to do as he wishes.”
