                                   Prolog: 
                                   --------


When Aeneas left the burning Troy behind, not even the gods expected to see his
descendants built a city that would overshadow the fallen one, and conquer
those, who had destroyed it so long ago.
But that’s not what this story is about. This is not a story about great
conquests and greater bloodshed.
To the contrary. This is a story about great politics and greater love. This is
a story of a revolution. This is a story about the people of Rome finding
themselves.
When Romulus founded Rome 753 BC, he became the first king. Another 6 kings
followed until the last one was chased away 510 BC by the angry Romans led by
Brutus, whose wife, Lucretia, took her life after she had been violated in her
own home.
Free of their former rulers, the Romans swore to never again allow a king to
reign over them and founded the Roman Republic.
And yet, not all were equal. Calling on the will of gods, the patricians rose
above the plebeians and took many rights for themselves. Not only did they seize
the political and religious power, but they proclaimed, that they were the only
ones who could enter a marriage as anything else would displease the deities.
But the plebeians didn’t accept that easily. They stood up for their rights
and demanded equality.
Join Sempronia Hermione and Lucius Cornelius Malfoy Draco on their journey as
they change the eternal City of Rome forever.
