There, he meets a Jewish man- an Essene- who is unsatisfied with his own religion and has many questions for the Celt. They become friends and what they plan together and execute will eventually change the world.Multiple narratives are begun in this introductory work. In Legion of Horatius, a plot against the reclusive Emperor Tiberius is fomented by one of his trusted generals.
