In 378 CE, Fritigern’s Goths dominate much of Thrace while the remaining Roman forces wait for the armies of Valens and Gratian. Pavo prepares for the expected decisive campaign but receives no word from senior officers sent to the western court.

As the emperors and their legions converge, Pavo searches for the missing men and confronts rivalries inside the Roman command. The campaign leads to Adrianople, where haste, ambition and military misjudgement place the Eastern Empire and its army at risk of catastrophe.
