Emma's Journey

Emma is studying Indo-Germanic studies in Erlangen. When she comes home for the holidays, she has a heated argument with her boyfriend. He gets physical and she flees from him, but cannot escape so easily.

When he tries to kill her, she prays fervently for a solution and is answered, but in the process falls into the year 11 BC, where she is found by Egmont. Because Emma looks like his first wife, he takes her to his village. But he is shocked when she opens her mouth for the first time and wants to leave her to her fate.

This presents Emma with some challenges: Where should she go if she is no longer tolerated in Egmont's village? Will she come back home and is her ex-boyfriend waiting for her there? Can she survive alone in the past? And how should she manage not to give herself away?
