In the spring of 478 BCE, the destruction left by the Persian invasion remains visible even after the victory at Plataea. Athens and Sparta quarrel over command and the division of spoils, while communities in Ionia remain exposed to Persian retaliation and the alliance that saved Greece begins to split.

Arimnestos returns to sea to strike Persian-held coasts and discovers that the Great King’s power is far from broken. Rumours of Spartan obstruction force him to decide whether former allies have become a greater danger than the old enemy and what loyalty requires when the war for Greek freedom turns into a struggle for leadership among the victors.
