00:11we've heard he's a god
00:12he's a god
00:17he's going
00:20i know it
00:30...to save us...
00:34...to marry us...
00:47My name is Gannicus Lentulus Batiatus.
00:54Death has been good to me.
01:12Even when death placed my father under the daggers of Nero's Praetorians...
01:20...even when it gave my mother up to their tender mercies...
01:28...it did not do this to punish me.
01:31It did it...
01:33...to make me strong.
01:44Death gave me the fire to lift myself up from the filth of the Aventine gutters.
02:03The strength to face the arena.
02:13I have filled the pheromins boat with hundreds of souls.
02:17The End
02:19The End
02:19The End
02:21The End
02:34The End
02:47In the name of death, I have tasted glory.
02:53I have known the touch of high-caste women...
02:58...and the love of the crowd.
03:00But I...
03:04...only love death.
03:21Now, my love, asks one more thing of me.
03:34It asks that I make way for another loyal servant.
03:41This spirit of vengeance...
03:45...who promises to restore our city to glory.
03:56And so death asks me to lower my shield of finger length...
04:01...to shift my blade to the right...
04:04...and let the cold steel of his dagger...
04:10...slip through my ribs.
04:26And in return...
04:28...it has promised me one final reward...
04:32...that I will not be tossed onto the pile to feed the crows.
04:37I will be carried on a shield.
04:40I will be lamented.
04:42I will be buried in the city walls...
04:46...as befits all true sons of Rome.
04:52How can I refuse my love?
04:56I am Gannicus...
04:59...Lentulus...
05:00...Batiatus.
05:04And death...
05:06...has been good to me.
05:24Then is...
05:25...our honor...
05:26...worth more...
05:27...than the city that we hold dear?
