   The prisoners face off with their captors in the calm before the storm. Something eternal surges from the depths of the sea, sending certainties tumbling into the cold waves.

   Libertines Chapter 3: The Twins, Part 1

   Our history moves backward in time now, to the dawning of the year of the events that we saw on the docks of Amonnia in Libya, back before the twin sisters Amalthea and Charis were reunited, when they were separated by a thousand miles and in very different circumstances. Amalthea, raised for many years to be the Oracle of Lillibeo, high on a mountain in Sicily, prepares to pursue a holy augury for the very first time. Will she produce the first actually divinely-inspired oracle anyone has seen in nearly a century? Her mentor Iomene, the High Priestess of Janus and current Oracle, guides her on these first steps to what everyone is sure will be her destiny. And at an even earlier moment in time, the previous autumn, Charis is throwing a party. Her responsibilities include sorting out the music, making sure the guests are taken care of, and hunting for the host, her master the great poet and cult leader Ovid. As usual, he is late. ...

    Libertines Chapter 1: The Oceanus, Part 1

    In a dusty library in the 1930s, a group of antiquarians stage a dramatic reading of a recently rediscovered ancient scroll from the 1st Century CE, restored and translated for the first time in the modern era. It tells the story of four prisoners chained together on a dock, bound for the slave markets of Rome. As it quickly becomes clear, all is not what it seems on this ship, and our four protagonists may yet have one last shot to take back control of their own lives, if they are willing to pay the price.
