The Roman Empire is crumbling, and a shadow looms in the east...
376 AD: the Eastern Roman Empire is alone against the tide of
barbarians swelling on her borders. Emperor Valens juggles the
paltry border defences to stave off invasion from the Goths north
of the Danube. Meanwhile, in Constantinople, a pact between faith
and politics spawns a lethal plot that will bring the dark and
massive hordes from the east crashing down on these struggling
borders. The fates conspire to see Numerius Vitellius Pavo,
enslaved as a boy after the death of his legionary father, thrust
into the limitanei, the border legions, just before they are sent
to recapture the long-lost eastern Kingdom of Bosporus. He is cast
into the jaws of this plot, so twisted that the survival of the
entire Roman world hangs in the balance...
