Do you know the city of Palmyra?'
'No.'
'Once it was a major city of the world. A place of temples to the sun and moon and of great archways curving against the desert sky. A place of trade, where all races lived as one. Then it fell as all civilisations can sem to fall. It was destroyed, its people were put to death.'
'That's terrible.'
'The destroyers were the Romans, those thought to be the great civilisers of the ancient world.
