The story is about the boyhood of Eumenes, who would later become Alexander Great's secretarial officer. One night he dreamed of a mysterious lady and the story begins.
Great series so far, however I'm almost dissapointed they did the whole future flash before setting out his backstory. It kinda ruined the chances of something bad occuring to him, i mean we know he turns out 1/2 decently by the first few chapters :(
