I think the Crusades is the correct answer.
Answer:
<h3>it had such a great appeal that drove her crazy.</h3><h3 />
Explanation:
The author uses the phrase "killing power" to describe the eyes of her secret love because<u> it had such a great appeal that drove her crazy</u>. It made her feel <u>light-headed and dizzy making her almost fall into the ground.</u>
The author always felt that her secret lover had the most mesmerizing eyes and when he looked straight across the room and into her eyes, she became <u>breathless. </u>
Thus, the phrase "killing power" helps in expressing how she felt when her secret lover looked straight into her eyes.
