In AD79, the volcano Mount Vesuvius unleashed its terrifying wrath upon the cities of Prompeii and Herculaneum, and the smaller towns in its domain around, smothering them from the face of the earth with its spitting fires of molten pumice, deadly burning showers of ash, and rivers of red-hot lava. Many tales and stories led toward this tragic event. One such tale was of a certain slave; a mean brought to Rome in chains, to entertain as a gladiator, to reluctantly kill his fellow man in the bloody arenas of the Roman world. But fate was to take him into conflicting fortunes; into strange, volatile destinies; that was to lead eventually to his involvement with the terrible catastrophe of Vesuvius. Such a man was Caradawg; a prodigious, fearless man, from the mountainous regions of the island province of Britannia. A slave who became a demigod. He was known to the Romans, as CARACTACUS.
