AENIGMAThis is not a book. It is the longest riddle ever written. Would you dare to solve it?It is the winter of the year 87 B.C. and a prophecy has been revealed at the Oracle of Delphi: "Seven they shall be to save the Treasure."

The fates intertwine the destiny of the chosen ones with that of these two great men in ancient history.As the quest for the Treasure unfolds, the story gradually transforms into a riddle. The responsibility of solving it falls on the shoulders of one of them, the Seventh, the most mysterious and evasive of all.
