It will be from the gloomy fortress of Papyrius that Marcus will move to the rescue, striving to reconquer an empire at the mercy of barbarians and usurpers: he will fight with the disenchantment of the mercenary, surrounded by the betrayal and unreliability of his own commanders, but in the tragedy of the twilight of Rome, he will rediscover in the courage of his Empress the pride of fighting for Rome... Or for what remains of it.

In a world that represents the opposite of the golden and decadent Empire in the East, Marcus will rediscover his family and his loved ones, but also the reasons why he had left them behind. But above all, he will discover how the pitfalls of the Frankish court are no less lethal than those of Constantinople.

Aelia Ariadne is increasingly surrounded by declared enemies and hidden traitors, even in the narrowest circle of her own family; to defend herself, she will have to rely once more on her trusty western centurion, but in doing so she will risk losing forever not only his affection for her, but also his respect. And while Marcus will again do his duty to the fullest against the enemies of the Empire, the Augusta will discover that the haughty Teuton princess led by him to court could represent a threat more dangerous than ever.

But what might have seemed a trivial conflict between two of Rome's many heirs in the West, will prove to be a decisive clash for the fate not only of Gaul, but of the whole of Europe.

And when the Merlin places the sword of the last Pendragon on the heel stone of the Stone Circle, the fate of Britain will be fulfilled.

But when tragedy strikes into her life with the merciless violence of the real world, the young elf will tourn to survive first into an outlaw and then into a witch.
