Meet Your Narrator

Anna Lucia.

She is ten years old. The daughter of a Roman Senator. She has green eyes, curly brown hair, and absolutely cannot sit still when someone is getting a story wrong.

For months she has been sneaking away from her family’s estate to hear Jesus preach. She has witnessed things no one in Rome believes. She has seen women transformed. She has seen the risen Lord through the eyes of Mary of Magdala herself.

And now Rome is spreading rumors. Anna Lucia gathers her little sister Livia and her skeptical cousins in the courtyard and sets the record straight. One woman at a time.

Who She Is
Age & Background Ten years old. Roman Senator’s daughter. One of the most privileged children in Rome who keeps sneaking off to hear a Jewish preacher.
Personality Dramatic. Passionate. Cannot stand an inaccurate story. Learned to command a room by watching her father hold court in the Roman Senate.
Her Secret She has been sneaking away to hear Jesus. She was never supposed to be there. But something kept pulling her back. And what she witnessed changed everything.
Her Mission Rome keeps getting the stories wrong. Anna Lucia was there. She knows the truth. And she is going to tell every single person who will listen.
The Audience

Every story needs
an audience.

Anna Lucia gathers her family in the courtyard for every story. They are loud, loving, skeptical, and completely devoted to her even when they pretend not to be.

Livia
The Little Sister

Front row. Every time. Mouth open, eyes wide, believing every word before Anna has even finished saying it. The most devoted audience member in the history of storytelling.

The Older Boys
Two Cousins · Too Cool

They pretend they have better things to do. They always end up completely riveted. Every single time.

The Younger Boys
Two Cousins · Always Wiggling

Distracted. Fidgety. Probably throwing something. But they always gasp at exactly the right moment.

The Older Girls
Two Cousins · Already Know Everything

Arms folded. Eyebrows raised. They think they have heard it all before. They have not heard this.

The Series

From Eve to
Proverbs 31.
