The oasis of the Syrian desert is rich and blessed – Palmyra, lying on the crossroads of caravan routes. But the fate of the kingdom, which fell in the field of attraction of two powerful empires, is unenviable: the battle between Parthia and Rome is ripening here. It seems that the elderly ruler of the Wabat is not able to hold the reins of government, and the rebellion, inflated by the party neighbors, flashes in Palmyra. Who to rely on if one son of the ruler turns out to be a traitor, the other – a windy guellar, and the third is a fool? But the alarm has already reached Rome, and the faithful combat comrades of the Centurions Caton and Macron led their soldiers to help the ruler’s garrison locked in the citadel … Will they be in time?
