Ishtrix, the King of the Caninefates, ordered the execution of eight farmers to coverup his affair with a Greek noble woman, the wife of a legislator of the Roman administration of the Province Lower Germany.

Two teenagers, who live in Lugdunum Caninefatium, don't agree with the case and speak out against it.
