About Barbarians II A year after the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, the Roman troops are marching on Germania again, stronger than ever, and Ari must once again face his Roman past. His brother has pledged allegiance to the Roman side to punish Ari for his treason against Rome. While Thusnelda and Ari try to unite the tribes against Rome, Folkwin dares to challenge the Gods.
