The War for Rome

The king of the Sabines Tito Tazio invites Yemos and Wiros to Cures. However, it is an ambush that ends with the kidnapping of the Sabine priestesses.

Wiros seeks support from the kings of neighbouring areas, while Silvia begs the Sabines not to attack Yemos.

Tito advances. The Ruminales attack a Sabine garrison and as all seems lost, a contingent led by Wiros, charges. Yemos is wounded and the priestess Ersilia proposes to take him to the Tusci.

Yemos is dying and Ersilia takes Wiros to the village where she grew up to be treated; Titos is furious with Servios and the others who have retreated into the woods.

In Rome, the tensions caused by the lack of food leads to a clash; Titus reacts unexpectedly to the loyalty of the Latin kings.

When Titos steps in, the tides change with the Romans, who must retreat; Yemos decides to leave the sceptre to Wiros.

Wiros encourages his team to have hope for victory. On his wedding day with Ersilia, he faces a difficult truth about his brother.

Wiros surrenders to the Sabines and cedes the city of Rome; a woman leaves a cloak on the shoulders of the chained ex-king which leaves Tito distraught.
