The Parisii lost. Now what?
After the defeat at Alesia, the world of the Parisii will never be the same. Rome doesn’t just conquer - it transforms. Watch as Celtic villages become Roman cities, as druids disappear and Latin replaces Gaulish, as a people’s entire identity shifts across three generations.
This is the story of what happened to the Parisii after conquest. It’s about grandfathers who remember freedom teaching grandchildren who only know empire. It’s about the painful beauty of survival and adaptation. And it’s about how a muddy settlement called Lutetia becomes a proper Roman city - complete with baths, amphitheaters, aqueducts, and all the infrastructure of civilization.
But nothing lasts forever. When Germanic tribes breach the Rhine frontier and the empire crumbles, Lutetia retreats to a fortified island. The stones of the amphitheater become fortress walls. A new faith - Christianity - takes root. And an elderly nun named Geneviève saves the city from Attila the Hun through sheer force of will and faith.
Rome is falling. But Paris is being born.
