Brethren of the Cruciform Sword

The Brethren of the Cruciform Sword form a fanatical order sworn to protect the Holy Grail from profane hands. Under Kazim's command, they ambush Donovan's Nazi convoy in a desert valley, unleashing a fierce firefight with rifles and grenades. They inflict casualties on Vogel's troops while absorbing heavy losses—one dies in a grenade blast—and press the attack until Kazim falls mortally wounded. Their resolute defense embodies a creed that deems the Grail a curse for the unworthy, clashing directly with Nazi seekers and highlighting the quest's moral perils.
