The Centurion - 25. Character Index

The Centurions, warriors who know no equal in all of Ares, live for the chance to fight in great battles and prove their worth through blood and slaughter. Cursed to live not one day past the age of forty, the cruelties of life have taught these perfect soldiers to live without regret or concern for tomorrow, and to live each moment with untamable passion. Of all the people in Ares, only one race has the power to leash the hearts of these pinnacle fighters and that is the gentle hand of men called Legatio who, cursed themselves, long ago turned their backs to the love offered them by their warrior cousins. All but one, that is...

Jason Argot, rightful ruler of the Kingdom of Qul Tos, was born outside the bounders of the Centurion's Empire, Domus. Kept prisoner by his mother, the Queen Regent, he has grown into manhood without knowledge or understanding of his fellow Legatio, lacking the hatred and prejudices his people have toward their Centurion protectors. In fact, Jason has no knowledge of any man, having lived in naïve innocence locked in a tower high in the mountains, the path protected by a deadly maze called the Labyrinth.

Jason does know one thing, however. Above everything he could ever wish for, he desires love. With legions of Centurions coming to rescue this one young man from the cruelties of his mother, neither Jason not his Centurion rescuers know that the path they will walk together is the one foretold in legends and prophecies... a time of great turmoil and love.
