In issue #2, The Engine of Empire, Marcus and his master, Gaius, find themselves facing disaster after Pompeii's destruction. With most of their wool workers dead or injured and the wool rotting in warehouses, the entire Campania region is sliding toward ruin and starvation. Desperate for a solution, Marcus turns to Ulysses. They use new designs to build the first machines, allowing the survivors to work much faster than ever before. They save the community, but the massive scale of the new industry creates a surplus that the old world wasn't built to handle.
