Relationships: Flavia/Saxon husband
Characters: Flavia (Lantern Bearers), Rowena (Lantern Bearers), Mull (Lantern Bearers)
Summary: Flavia, brought up in the last lingering light of Roman Britain, was carried off from her burning home by a 'laughing giant' of a Saxon, in a raid during which her father and friends were brutally killed. Three years later, her brother found her again - married, and with a child by that same 'laughing giant'. Given the chance to escape back to the part of Britain still held by the Roman British, with her brother and her child, she chose to stay with her husband rather than go with her brother. This story explores what those years were like for Flavia, and how she could come to make that choice. Although there is a threat of rape in this story, I don't feel it counts as non-con within the setting and culture of the period. Contains suicidal thoughts, Christianity, culture clash, Anglian pagan religion, magic.

There he met Ambrosius's young nephew Artos - who we now know as King Arthur. When Ambrosius died, Artos took over as the leader of the remnant of Roman Britain, and Aquila went with him to fight at the great battle of Badon Hill, as the commander of what had been the High King Ambrosius's bodyguard.
