AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The peasant folk who live at the base of Mount Etna know that the only way to placate the mountain is through sacrifices. Though Virgol farms at the base of the mountain, he is not a native of the area and he scoffs at the villagers' beliefs. Etna, however, will not tolerate his impudence.
