The(ir) Blurb...

Burdened by a prophecy that dooms them to a violent death Elagabalus, a genderqueer Roman emperor, embraces excess. Much to the dismay of their controlling mother Elagabalus is enamored of a dashing charioteer. But as Elagabalus's habits grow increasingly sadistic, mother and lover must band together to fulfill destiny.
