9th year. e. Seventeen -year -old Lucius Corneline from a slight riding clan sent his father to serve on the German border, in the legions under the command of the governor of Quintille Var, but not at all happy about this. The young man is passionate about the slave of Marcius, which is about to become free. He seeks to devote himself to poetry and does not want to serve, like many young people of his generations. Mother, knowing this, even tried to arrange her son to serve in safe Athens, but the father, who has high hopes for the glorification of their family, insisted on a more profitable and honorary service. It is there, on the border, Lucia was destined to take part in the famous battle of the Roman legions in the Teutburg Forest against the rebellious Germans.
