Mysterious and enchanting, the village of Palena emerges from the morning fog, nestled amidst the captivating Aventine river. As its waters flow tumultuously, they carry with them tales of ancient civilizations and forgotten goddesses. Amongst the ruins on the Aventine stands a statue of an unknown goddess, believed to be Clementia, exuding an aura of grace and compassion.
