We are in the year 305 AD, when Constantius I was emperor of the West within the tetrarchic reign of the Roman empire. An uprising was underway in Roman Britain. While Constantius I was fighting this uprising to restore Roman power in Britain siuth of the Hadrian's Wall, he as well did one last try to establish Roman power north up to the Antonius' Wall where Scots and Picts were living. Britain is in troublesome times as the Picts were invading Roman Britain from time to time while Rome forwarded quite far north of the Hadrian's Wall. However, none of both seemed to gain the final victory for decades. Within this settings, the story of a Pictish village is being told in scrpts shortly found in a cellar of a Monastery in York. For centuries, the cellar holding some scripts of Roman authors telling about the Pictish-Roman wars has long been forgotten after monks had walled up the cellar to save these scripts when Vikings were again and again raiding York without sparing monasteries. While renovating the Monastery in our days, the scripts have been fiund again and restored for the sake to read about Pictish-Roman wars of which little has been known until then. The Pictish-Roman Wars have shortly been put into a novel by a Scottish author.
