Chapter 27

==Summery==
Swimming onto shore, Marcus lifts Lillian up in a bridal carry and runs into the forest with her. He reasons that the pirates wont follow them anymore since they lack the means for an extended land-based expedition and their captain is dead, but the others hunting Lillian should have a lot of contacts with the nearby towns and villages, from which they will learn about the battle, and start chasing them again soon. After weighing the danger of staying in Gaul or returning to Britannia, Marcus decides to test their luck at the border of Germania. While Lillian is initially against the idea, due to her distaste of Germanian "Barbarians", she agrees to go wherever he does.
