Difficult to read. Produced by PG Distributed Proofreaders Online Team "Qvo vadis: Kertomus Neron ajoilta" by Henryk Sienkiewicz is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set during the time of the Roman Empire, specifically in the era of Emperor Nero, and it explores the themes of love, power, and morality through the experiences of its characters. The main characters introduced in the opening portion include Petronius, a refined and wealthy Roman, and Marcus Vinicius, a young and passionate soldier who has just returned from military service in Asia. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Petronius as he wakes up groggy after a night of indulgence at Emperor Nero’s banquet, reflective of his life of luxury yet aware of his declining health. Meanwhile, Vinicius, his young relative, arrives with feelings of newfound love for Lygia, a beautiful girl of mysterious origins, which he shares with Petronius. Their dialogue reveals the political tensions of the time and hints at the forthcoming romantic and moral conflicts as Vinicius expresses his determination to win Lygia's affection, setting the stage for a rich tapestry of emotional and historical drama that unravels throughout the narrative.
