The Montage #
A retrospective tour narrated by Ulysses that catches the reader up on the last few months of "miracles."
"It started with Livy. Books 46 to 70. The lost decades. The gap between the rise of Hannibal and the fall of Carthage... filled in an afternoon."
Then the medical texts. Then the Ennius fragments. Every week, a new miracle. One after another. Sometimes we have to delay the announcement just to make it look plausible.
But Marcus... Marcus is in a hurry. The world thinks it's the algorithm. They think we cracked the code.
