Story · House of the Vestal Virgins
You're standing at the House of the Vestal Virgins, on the eastern edge of the Roman Forum. First, look at the small round building right next to it. That's the Temple of Vesta. The sacred fire of Rome burned there, and the women who lived here made sure it never went out.
