Set in 763 BCE during the 4th Greek Olympiad, a decade before the founding of Rome; this dark, mythical historical fiction narrative reimagines the dawn of an empire through a lens of tragedy, magic, and brutal political intrigue. It chronicles the violent destruction of an ancient Italic Sacred Spring ritual and the harrowing survival of the young twin brothers Romulus and Remus. As Latin communities clash in a desperate scramble for land and resources, the Etruscan city-state of Veii emerges as a dominant force, led by a ruthless king and bound to a sinister, divine cabal determined to extinguish the twins before a fateful prophecy can unfold. Rich with action, deceit, and supernatural menace, the story lays bare the blood-soaked foundation of the world Rome would eventually dominate.
