Overview: Cai is young when he’s suddenly given a chance to join the prestigious ranks of the Roman Legions. The opportunity takes him from the safe and secluded place he grew up, and into a very real and dangerous world that immediately starts chipping away at his youthful confidence, but he knows the biggest challenge is finding his place amongst those he’s looked up to for as long as he can remember.
Cai is driven by his desire to become something he’s been told about all his young life, so he must go on an unknown journey into a world of warriors; a world full of decisions and consequences. Unfortunately, contrary to believing he was ready to become a legionnaire, and to one day be a known warrior of the Roman Legions, Cai is confronted with a harsh reality, he may have been mistaken.
Born the year Rome began to establish a military region on the mysterious Island of Britannia, Cai is taken from the Island, by his mother, to join his father in Gaul. They eventually move and settle in Hispania, where Cai spends the majority of his young life training, until his world is devastated when both his parents die within a year of each other. He continues training with his uncle, until the unexpected deployment of the local Cohort, suddenly brings Cai to the brink of leaving his young life behind.
Even though it’s what he wants, entering the Legions at such a young age makes Cai feel sick, no matter how much he’s prepared for it. Cai then discovers the reason for the sudden deployment and his unexpected opportunity; the Cohort is sailing for Britannia where it will join the Legions and campaign to finally establish the Island as a Roman territory.
