Episode 1 (Season 2)

Episode 1 is the first episode of Season 2 of Britannia. It aired on 4th October on Epix.

Synopsis
''10 years previous to the invasion of Britannia. In a barren wasteland under the hot desert sun, Aulus commands Lucius to end the life of the man being crucified.''

Plot
10 years before the invasion of Britannia, Aulus issues a command to Lucius to kill a man who is being crucified.

Two years on from the initial invasion of Britannia, Amena, who is now Queen of the Cantii tribe and lover to Aulus, is working with Celt tribes to negotiate for their cooperation with the Roman Empire. Those who don't comply will be crushed.

Aulus continues in secret the search for Cait and her blind father Sawyer, as he sees them as a threat to his power as per the prophecy. Claudius arrives and interrupts his plans and after learning of Claudius' attempts to have him return to Rome now that the Empire has control of Britannia, he takes big measures to ensure Claudius knows the threat the Druids pose.

The Druids hold a synod in an effort to learn from the gods, to understand what their next move should be to combat the Romans. Veran channels a message from his past and Willa and Quane recognise this as signs the Dead Man has woken up.

Cait continues her training with Divis so she can fulfil the prophecy, but must take a leap of a cliff as a leap of faith to complete the Trial of the Air.
