E G Ovitz

The Seventh King E G Ovitz

The story of King Arthur is shrouded in the mist of time. However, the inspiration for the legend is clear. It is to be found in the later days of the Roman Empire, with a young tribune, a prince of Rome. He was Constantine, the son of a Caesar. The prince was the personal representative of the Augustus Maximus, the Emperor Diocletian. Diocletian and his three imperial colleagues had campaigned to restore a fractured empire under the banners of the gods of ancient Rome. And yet there were loyal soldiers of Rome that followed a different star, the rising star of Bethlehem. Those Christian soldiers had enemies in high places. It was a time of faith and superstition. In a trial of conscience, Constantine's life is transformed. And with that change comes the passing of the age. The sword is released from the stone, and the seeds of a legend are sown.
