The Fifth doctor, Peri and Erimem visit the first great Church council in the year 325 AD. The Christian Church has been divided by the conflicting beliefs of Bishop Alexander and and a man named Arius, and the council is set up by the Emperor in order to establish what be will be considered doctrine. The conflict: Arius believes that God is absolute, indivisible and at the root of creation for the rest of the world, meaning that Christ must be a ''creation'' of God, rather than a divine aspect of God's self.

Emperor Constantine hopes that the council will restore order to the Empire by uniting the Church, enabling it to serve as a stabilising influence. Peri and Erimem soon become involved in the politics of the council and find out that some people are willing to kill in order to silence the voices of those who oppose them. Erimem, who has learned that Christianity is a loving religion, is horrified to hear that her new friend Arius won't be allowed to speak during the council and will have to rely on others to speak for him. She would never have allowed such injustice to happy in her own state, had she accepted her position as Pharaoh. Although she's still conflicted about the idea of religion to begin with, she realises that she can use her diplomatic experience to force the council to listen to Arius and stay true to their purported Christian compassion.
