What to expect from Barbarians season 2?
“A year after the Battle of Varus, Roman troops had returned to Germania, stronger than before, and Ari was once again faced with a Roman past. His brother had joined the Roman side to punish Ari for betrayal Rome. While Fothelda and Ari tried to unite the tribes. Against Rome, Folkwin made a creepy challenge for the gods. “
A Barbarian King?
Arminius and Thaughnelda managed to bring together German tribes under one banner to take three Roman legions. The ambush was a great success, and it was a shameful defeat for the Roman Empire.
Being after a big victory, it seems like the more likely Arminius and Themelda can claim the title of the king and queen of tribes.
Naturally, close conflicts with the house might occur. Moonnelda’s father was planned with his former engagement, Haggan. The couple intends to attack when Arminius least expects it and claims power for themselves.
The Wrath of Rome?
War with Rome is far from above, and from a historical point of view, there are still many upcoming fighting.
While Arminius and the German tribes will be busy removing the remaining Romans in the east of Rhine, Emporer from Rome, Tiberius, will organize other soldiers. More Rome’s legion, led by Germanicus, will be on the road to fight Arminius.
The betrayal of Folkwin Wolfspeer?
After almost ending as a slave for the Romans, and losing Themellingda to Arminius, Folkwin became very far away with the couple. Even though Arminius offered to make Folkwin a prince if he was named King, the latter considered him an insult, expressing his intention to kill Arminius if he became the King of Germany.
Folkwin is a wild card for Arminius ambition. It was thanks to Folkwin that Arminius even lived, not to mention he was the person who pushed the lie that Thellingda was connected with the gods. Both of these actions resulted in his former friend, and his ex-girlfriend married, brought together tribes, and could potentially become a new king and queen.
