Across the ancient Mediterranean, kingdoms strive for dominance. The great powers of Carthage and Egypt look on with avarice as the might of the Greeks is spent warring between themselves. While life on the battlefield is cheap, predatory slavery flourishes even more during these Dark Ages of carnage and chaos. Yet there is one amongst the Greeks who would set aflame a torch of peace that will blaze down through the ages.
