In the unforgiving wilderness of Roman Britain, a young Roman officer embarks on a perilous quest to recover a lost legionary eagle, a symbol of Rome's power and honor.

Marcus Aquila, a tribune in the Ninth Legion, is tasked with the dangerous mission of finding the golden eagle that was lost twenty years earlier. Guided by rumors and ancient maps, Marcus and his loyal companion, Esca, venture into the untamed lands of Caledonia, where fierce tribes and treacherous terrain await them.

As they delve deeper into the unknown, Marcus and Esca encounter a world that is both enchanting and perilous.
