In the aftermath of Rome's collapse, a forgotten boy emperor returns not to reclaim the throne—but to reinvent what it means to rule.
Rome Reborn follows the extraordinary transformation of Romulus II, a discarded figure in the shadow of empire, who dares to rebuild the West not through legions, but through law, unity, and reform. As warlords claim kingdoms and old cities decay, Romulus breathes life into a fragile republic formed from shattered provinces and weary citizens.
From forging an accord with the Goths to reuniting East and West through diplomacy, and reviving Latin as a living tongue, Romulus steers a new kind of Roman state—one built on pluralism, merit, and civil resilience. But the past is never far behind. With Odoacer watching, power consolidating in Italy, and threats looming from all sides, the republic survives not through conquest, but through radical vision and political courage.
This first volume in the Twilight Reshaped series tells the alternate story of a Rome that didn't fall completely—but reshaped itself at the edge of the world.
