First published 2025
In 391 CE, the empire remains damaged by civil war and rumours spread that its absent emperor has lost control. Gothic revolt and religious violence intensify while the architects of the previous conflict prepare to exploit the disorder.
Pavo works aboard a merchant vessel and plans to settle his family far from imperial politics. When the crisis reaches his route, he is drawn back into service and must decide what he is prepared to surrender to keep his wife and son alive while preventing another war.
