(~740 – 756 CE · Spain, France, and Italy) 

The Narrator remembers his time living among the Franks, and especially one frigid morning where he acted as a translator between a little boy and a Pope who fled Italy in the depths of winter to borrow an army on the strength of one of history's most important and breathtaking bald-faced lies.

Based on the first half of Chapter 8 of End by Geoff Micks.
