A day of incredible triumph is marred by a Roman crackdown, which lands Gestas in jail. As the unimaginable happens, Almelem searches for a way to salvage the movement and save their friends. They discover that there is even more hope in a tragedy than in a victory, if only they can find a new beginning.
