Chapter 15: Courage (Ava, 46 CE)
Recap: Jenna and Saman leave for Jerusalem. Galla’s family hears about the bris milah that was performed, and they leave the palace in a huff. They say they are heading to the Noris’ home. The servant who traveled with Jenna and Saman returns briefly to warn Aunt Annabelle that King Marmar heard about the bris milah and is sending his army to the palace. He advises her to escape quickly. All the servants apologize and tell Aunt Annabelle that, due to the danger, they must leave. Only one loyal servant remains.
