A Roman commander and his loyal aide share a meal together, discussing strength, loyalty, and bravery. Their conversation is abruptly interrupted when guards bring in an insolent boy caught trying to poison the local water supply—who is genuinely surprised by the commander’s unexpected compassion.
Later, tragedy strikes when the aide, Marcus, falls dangerously ill. With his fate seemingly sealed, rumors reach the garrison of a remarkable man in the region who can heal the lame and the sick.
