After the fall of Troy by the hands of the Greeks, death and destruction followed. The great hero Hektor, son of Troy's King Priam, had died in battle. His wife, Andromache, reduced to a slave and his infant son, Astynax, dead, believed to have been thrown of a battlement and his dead body used to beat Priam to death.

Four hundred years later there is unrest in the great city of Sparta, the city where the legendary Helen of Troy was abducted by Paris and where her husband Menelaos King of Sparta conceived the idea of the Trojan War and brought destruction upon Troy. Amidst the unrest a a young slave girl by the name of Serilda escapes her master. She didn't expect much she'll probably be caught again, if she was lucky she might live the rest of her life as a recluse. That is until she meets elderly Lycurgus and his band of loyal followers.

Maybe just maybe she could show the world she is worth something.
