A barbarian child raised by Briton nobles. A slave destined to rule. From the ash of the old world, a new Britannia is born.

Thirty years have passed since Britannia voted to throw off the Roman yoke. Now, the old world crumbles. Pirates roam the seas, bandits threaten the highways, and barbarian refugees from the East arrive on Britannia's shores, uninvited. The rich profit from the chaos, while the poor suffer. A new Dark Age is approaching - but all is not lost.

A Saxon child is found on a Briton beach with nothing but a precious stone at his neck and a memory of a distant war from which his people have fled. Raised by a Briton nobleman, trained in warfare and ancient knowledge, he soon becomes embroiled in a struggle that will determine the future of all Britannia.
