The king of the Sabines Titos Tatios invites Yemos and Wiros to Cures. However, it is an ambush that ends with the kidnapping of the Sabine priestesses.

Tito advances. The Ruminales attack a Sabine garrison and as all seems lost, a contingent led by Wiros, charges. Yemos is wounded and the priestess Ersilia proposes to take him to the Tusci.
