In the early days of the Roman Empire, the noble Etruscan civilization in Italy is waning. Violated by a supernatural being, a young Etruscan noblewoman bears Horatrim, a child with inexplicable knowledge who grows into manhood in only six years. But Horatrim's demon father seeks him out in order to kill him, for Horatrim is a conduit through which the demon might be found and destroyed.
