To Kill the Christ! - Chapter Eleven: Confrontation at the River Trent 
Chapter Eleven: Confrontation at the River Trent
Leaving Aquae Sulis to return to their beginning, they were a far cry from the three travelers who had started from the Wye. In addition to Morius and Gaio, four warriors had joined them, as had five squires, boys who were little more than apprentices to war. Morius had found the new men, none of them from the guards who had fled the Ggaron. They had horses and were warmly if crudely dressed. Morius had traded ponies for oxen and two more horses, though he felt he was gypped on ...

To Kill the Christ! - Chapter Thirteen: Dannoius the Druid
Chapter Thirteen: Dannoius the Druid
Dusk arrived as Carl and his companions rode to the jail. It was a low, rectangular block building set against the large stone face of a limestone outcropping. When a guard unlocked the wooden door and Carl stooped low to enter, a foul smell assaulted his senses. It was dank as a Paris sewer. There was no light. The guard brought a torch.

To Kill the Christ! - Chapter Five: Raphael

Chapter Fourteen: A Contest of Wills
The year flew. Progress was made in many directions, but no one was satisfied for an especially cold winter and inadequate finances had hindered the start of Long Reach. Fortunately, they could learn the language even in the cold. There was great difficulty staring them in the face.
