"Jack ... I will give you and your descendants good lives ... but they must return to me in two thousand years and bring me their stories in your blood." Inspired by testing on Jason's ancestral DNA, the journey starts with Jacobus, a young Greek boy, growing up in Roman Italy, and follows his descendants as they migrate across borders, nations and centuries, to the present day. Each story is an original piece, using mythologies of the times and regions, across the nations and across the ages. 12 stories from across Europe and North Africa, from Roman times to the battlefields of WWI.
