When the alchemist Elias Thorne activates a mysterious artifact in his workshop, he is transported twenty-five centuries into the past and stranded in the primitive city of ancient Rome. And until he can repair his transportal device, he has to disguise himself as a street magician. He attracts the attention of a powerful senator who is involved in a high-stakes game of politics. Rome is on the brink of civil collapse and foreign armies are marching on the undefended city. But the working-class people have had enough, and they are not going to play their game anymore. Elias helps them to break the chains of oppression, and the people stage the first-ever protest strike in history.
