"Many skeletons of eternally embracing couples have been discovered throughout the Roman Empire. I liked playing with the classic themes of mythology and history. Vulcan was an important god in the founding of Rome. He also built the first automatons (one of history's first robots!) It was a Roman couple that was originally discovered buried in an eternal embrace. What if these forbidden lovers, sharing one heart, buried under years of bloody civilization and restoration, were escaping from Vulcan? Because like... Ancient Aliens." - Emek
