It is a prequel to the stories which make up the fix-up novel Agent of Byzantium into which Pillar of Cloud, Pillar of Fire was incorporated. The Point of Divergence was that Muhammad converted to Christianity and became a monk rather than being the Prophet of Islam. The story deals with an episode in his later life in a monastery in Ir-Ruhaiyeh, Syria.
