The first of the Seven Days on the Cross begins after the capture of Varinia, under the suspicion that she is part of a plot against the empire. She's taken to where she will be made an example. The orders are to make her last seven days under torture.

Although the intention is to make her give the names of the co-conspirators, the real reason for her long and painful martyrdom is to dissuade others to start such a plot.
