00:15You
00:18The party
00:21Corus yet lives though grievously fucking injured
00:25Proculus moves against us
00:26The villain Fides is known to be his man upon the occasion
00:29What of your task?
00:31I broke words and wine with Opata and gained his confidence
00:33I would see my man in deserved possession in the impending games
00:37Elevating the Sirian at my own expense
00:40What of dispatches from Rome?
00:42Any been received?
00:43No, Dominus
00:44Viridia, it swells hard to see you stir from chambers
00:48Sirian
00:49Should the gods favor you towards the arena, you shall face three
00:54The brothers Ferox
00:55Vicious half-man
00:58Dominus has tainted it by positioning woman towards the arena
01:01Seize fate as champion of this fucking house
01:38The brothers Ferox may be twisted in form yet stand fierce opponent
01:43Capable of sending any man
01:46Old woman
01:48Into the afterlife
02:05Send the cunt to grass and be done with it
02:12No distraction
02:13Pulling attention and blessing Sotiris with open attack
02:24Good, good
02:27Now press advantage
02:37The...
02:45You assume proper place
02:47For weakened animal
02:49For weakened animal
02:53Excuse me
03:02Huh
03:03Hud
03:07Is it intend to lay in a repose all morning, or prove worthy of the mark of brotherhood you now
03:14bear, and rise to fucking occasion?
03:20Dominus, a message arrives from Crassus.
03:31Prepare for honored arrival.
03:38That is the sum of it?
03:41It stands all received.
03:43When? When will Crassus bless us with fucking presents?
03:47We do not know.
03:49Question was not posed, expecting fucking a reply.
03:56Seafloor polis to reflection. Fill pool with water, fresh and clear.
04:01Mercier will attend to menial duties. Go.
04:05We must present finest wines and exotic meats. Have meal prepared to move the gods themselves to salvation.
04:11For this day?
04:12Every fucking day, until Crassus materializes, or coffer ends fucking dry.
04:17We cannot bear such expense beyond week's end.
04:19You break words towards any beyond fucking calamity.
04:25Apologies.
04:27Sentiment deserved to be broken from my tongue, alone.
04:32Fuck Jupiter's face!
04:34We stand idle time for Crassus' absent position in approaching games.
04:39How do labors progress in such regard?
04:42Vaxing at fucking best?
04:44The opinion stands maker of decision, yet his bitch, Casutia, growls and froth like Cerberus at the gate, denying entry.
04:53What of Opata?
04:56Chorus lays infirm.
04:59Unable to ply the man with honey word toward his cause.
05:02Even if so swayed, I fear Casutia will hold fast and hateful resolution.
05:07My concern well shared.
05:10Yet something fucking must move the woman!
05:14Ugh.
05:16Ugh.
05:19Ugh.
05:25Your man possesses admirable talent beyond sands of the arena.
05:30His enthusiasm but rises to the occasion of your beauty.
05:34More wine?
05:36Ugh.
05:39Ugh.
05:40I would pause a moment.
05:45Ugh.
05:50Ugh.
05:54Ugh.
05:56Ugh.
05:56Ugh.
05:56Gratitude.
05:58Ugh.
05:59Leave us.
06:01Hmm.
06:02Ugh.
06:04How I wish aged husband possessed such artful tongue beyond a ration in the Senate.
06:13How fair is Curcubinius?
06:15Oh, I would hardly know his gazes forever towards Rome and growing tensions between Pompey and Crassus.
06:22A grievous concern, that of civil war.
06:24Yet, Selesian threat to ports and goods more pressing.
06:30We stand well removed from waters of the Tyrrhenian and fucking plunderers upon its waves.
06:35And yet, bodies have been found in our various streets.
06:40Perhaps, fallen to Selesian blades.
06:42Bodies?
06:43Six.
06:44Discovered in wake of storm.
06:45Among them, the brute Phides.
06:48Hmm.
06:49An unpleasant specimen favored by Troculus.
06:52Throat slit as gutted fish.
07:01I did not know the man.
07:03Perhaps he felt a misadventure of his own construction.
07:07It stands deepest mystery why I yet wear this.
07:13Yesterday's fashion extended beyond use or consideration.
07:17Sackcloth is elevated to silk upon frames such as yours.
07:21Sackcloth shall be a blessing before long.
07:24It stands impossible challenge to obtain new fabric with those Selesian shits preying upon our merchant ships.
07:32Word upon Breeze has caressed ear of the finest Egyptian linens arriving tomorrow at gates close.
07:38To be received by the traitor Spirius.
07:42Egyptian?
07:44Are you certain?
07:45As sun breaking dawn each day.
07:49Gratitude.
07:50For timely consideration.
07:52Are we not friends?
07:53Well, I would see mountains reform towards shared interests.
07:57I would not ask such Herculean effort.
08:00Hmm.
08:02Yet.
08:03There is one favor I would humbly entreat.
08:07You'll give it voice and see it well received.
08:09Thoughts turn towards games of Ludi Apollinari's noble husband presents.
08:14Place mind and ease.
08:15Your men shall hold position in them.
08:17Honored.
08:17As always.
08:18Yet I broach subject not for myself, but for the house of Asher.
08:26You petitioned for the fucking Syrian?
08:28By tenuous association only.
08:31I speak toward a worthy figure of his doctorate.
08:35Chorus.
08:36Deserving of the presentation of his labors.
08:42What's turned you to gain from unsavory request?
08:47A man indebted by gracious act pays future dividends when called upon.
08:51You have always possessed delicate sensibilities of foresight.
08:56Yet I fear this may have been rare miscalculation.
09:04In what regard?
09:06Rumour vibrates that the Syrian's man has suffered grievous injury.
09:13Injury.
09:14Hmm?
09:17Does he yet live?
09:23Fuck the gods!
09:25Ah!
09:26We at last come to common ground upon subject.
09:30How does he fare?
09:32Do you not see me fucking rise before you?
09:36The spirit's inflamed.
09:37Although weak are flesh.
09:39I yet do a breath.
09:41And the rest shall follow shortly.
09:44News to Hardencock.
09:46As what I break shall in return.
09:50Crassus says word of impending arrival.
09:54Crassus.
09:55Upon what hour?
09:56Enigma yet to be revealed.
09:58Always thought where he will stand towards House conspiring to present a woman in the area.
10:03As long as it harrows adulations from the crowd on coin and fucking palm.
10:07Crassus shall send delighted.
10:09We will then turn favourable humour towards advantage and press the man to commit effort into rebuilding the arena.
10:15Destroyed by Spartacus and his mongrels.
10:18Assuming we gain position in the arena.
10:19When we gain position.
10:22You fucking goat.
10:25Come.
10:26Stand in need of food and wine.
10:29And cleansing waters to remove stench of narrowly averted death.
10:36I have stayed men upon wrench to give signal when procession comes to view.
10:40When sounded, I would have you fall to my side.
10:43Dominus.
10:44We have received unannounced guest.
10:46Good arbiter.
10:49You grace us with unexpected presence.
10:53Gratitude sends an order for your generous gift of grain.
10:56Give it no thought.
10:58Apologies for appearing in advance of proper warning.
11:01News only just reached ear of your man's injuries.
11:04I had feared him no longer among us.
11:07I yet cling to fucking life and stand absent need for concern.
11:10Oh, he exaggerates recovery.
11:13As a matter of pride.
11:15Apologies.
11:15I would offer wine and midday repast.
11:17Yet, pressing concerns pulls me to market.
11:20I shall take my leave then.
11:21Oh!
11:22No, remain.
11:23Chorus says to the bath to soak troubled wounds.
11:26Concern will be put from Thawd knowing the weight of his suffering is lifted.
11:31By carrying hands.
11:34Your presence would lend comfort.
11:48Are you often invited into the Sulean's bath?
11:52It has been known to happen.
11:54Upon occasion.
11:55Hmm.
11:56I was unaware he possessed such...
12:00appetite.
12:01His desires do not extend towards his fucking doctore.
12:04Nor mine towards his.
12:05You do not fave element of such rich complexion?
12:09The tone of a man's skin stands meaningless.
12:11When cut, the colour holds equal for all.
12:17Fall from presence.
12:30A woman's hands offer rough comfort.
12:37A man's...
12:39More...
12:39Familiar.
12:41With rugged terrain.
12:44Traverses with practised ease.
12:49You need not burden yourself with such a job.
12:51Hmm.
12:52It's a rare privilege.
12:54For only a mortal to touch the heavens.
13:01Who handled you so roughly?
13:06An old acquaintance.
13:07Who took issue with recent conversation.
13:11Does the villain carry a name?
13:13Verde's.
13:15He fell upon me with a clutch of men.
13:18Their lives claimed for the offence, yet the man himself fluttered to the winds.
13:22And swiftly plummeted.
13:24Never to spread wings again.
13:28Verde is no longer to us breath.
13:31Difficulty with throat slid.
13:35Wounds not inflicted by my hands.
13:38Then whose?
13:39He was known to have dealings with Proculus.
13:42A thing I'm certain you're well aware of.
13:45I've witnessed that.
13:47I've mentioned to Casutia this very day.
13:52It troubles me to see flesh so murdered by basement of Vryx.
13:59I would see wounds visited tenfold upon Proculus's men in the arena.
14:09Twice in as many visits you have mentioned desire to see yourself in the games.
14:15Is such your only desire in holding my company?
14:20I am the Tory of this house.
14:23Gloria Nirena consumes fucking mind.
14:26As well as that of the Syrian.
14:28One would assume.
14:35It's a thing of no matter.
14:37We must all play our part in this game of men and their ambitions.
14:45Words to be agreed upon.
14:49Place worried thought aside.
14:51I have broke subject with Casutia and will revisit upon soonest opportunity.
15:00Gratitude towards effort.
15:04Wherever such me lead.
15:11Next time you find yourself in need.
15:19Our lips.
15:22And I shall storm Olympus to see you satisfied.
15:38A bold claim.
15:44For one so slight.
15:48Valiant purpose source in your presence.
15:53His gesture yet in service of the Syrian.
16:00He stands far from fucking sort.
16:18The
16:23Oyster sound fresh.
16:26Deptied himself, this is each fucking one of them.
16:30they smell of his ass
16:33it would make you
16:34the more ants are
16:36I fear they threaten to exceed
16:37weight of purse added to what
16:39Stan's already purchased
16:40you would see Crassus presented with Finn
16:42fucking offering
16:43I would see him well attended
16:46short of coffers emptied in a tent
16:48you fret beyond reason
16:50yet not beyond purpose

17:45I again invite any Roman to step forth
17:49and test worth against the house of Proculus
17:57the house of Asher would see challenge accepted

25:59proculus

26:44eyes full upon you with thoughts of fucking
26:50well she will find bits you embrace within my arms

27:39I will mourn your death at the little hands of Satyrus and his brothers
27:50see title of champion
27:52fall to more deserving name
27:57focus effort
27:58and do you recall words broken between us
28:10oh
28:15oh
28:45Let's go!
28:49Come on.
28:52Come on.
29:22Good.
29:25Instruction towards victory at last finds purchase.
29:34Fucking woman locks his house.
29:37With her prowess.
29:40By elevation of position not yet earned.
29:43By Dominus, rewarding her with the mark of the brotherhood absent proper fucking test.
29:48And by shifting her father's allegiance from his rightful place.
29:55All could hold truth, yet none negate poor showing against Achillia.
29:58Herato and Ephesius should have bested her.
30:00Yes, perhaps they would have had you not foolishly pressed your own advantage.
30:04A fault oft repeated.
30:08Well, of those are the fucking words you broke with her over yesterday's meal.
30:11How to defeat your fucking son.
30:14In Chorus's absence, I stand doctorate.
30:18And words shared reflected such.
30:26You place her victory above mine.
30:31I place the victory of this fucking house!
30:36Over all concerns.
30:43And even those of blood.
30:49Well, does it stand so tenuous a bond?
31:00You are my son.
31:05I would see you rise above all of us.
31:14And I will honor you.
31:19When my time comes in the arena.
31:23First, you won herself with thoughtful strategy.
31:33I fight as I was taught.
31:36By my father.
31:42Then the failure is mine.
31:51Well, may you find a more willing student than a fucking Nubian.
31:55No, son.
31:56No!
32:02Can't you lash out, absent thought of consequence?
32:07And yet you've far off over how a woman bested you.
32:24Place game aside and gather yourself.
32:27I would have you accompany me.
32:29Where?
32:29Where honored mother commands.
32:31If passions lie beyond these walls,
32:34I fear I stand not your reflection.
32:36Are we so opposed, you and I?
32:39When you were yet a child, we were of one heart and mind.
32:42I'm far removed from the youth I was.
32:45Yet here I stand, willing to embrace you as such.
32:51Apologies.
32:52Apologies.
32:54I'm not myself.
32:57And have not been so for too long a time.
33:01Life has been unkind in its offering.
33:04It is but oscillation between joy and despair.
33:09Each new day presents fresh choice between them.
33:14What is choice?
33:15When fate has final say,
33:18often leaving but fractured remnants in its wake,
33:21you yet breathe.
33:23Well, I thank the gods it is so.
33:26I would have you return to the happy child
33:29that so brightened this house.
33:32And world beyond.
33:36And if it holds nothing but shadow.
33:38We cannot halt setting of the sun,
33:40yet perhaps together we may ignite torch
33:43to guide our way from darkness.
33:49I promised father a game of Latrunkulite.
33:52Game shall greet you upon return.
33:55Operator whispers that Spurius the Trader
33:58receives Egyptian linen.
34:01How I would see us draped in fineries
34:04befitting mother and radiant daughter.
34:12Then let us to market.
34:15Together.
34:25Sun threatens to bake senses to oblivion.
34:28Should we pause and fall to shape?
34:31I find it comforting upon skin.
34:34It lifts heart to see you resurrected
34:37among the living, the Riddia.
34:40Look, Tasha's, Grace's presence.
34:44Where stands his wife?
34:46The name escapes me.
34:48A woman of tenuous impression,
34:50recently called to the shores of the afterlife.
34:52Poor man.
34:54A loss most keenly felt.
34:56There stood no love between them.
34:59Only advantage of marriage,
35:00strengthening respect of families.
35:02Does cut a form.
35:04Does he not?
35:05Any woman would be blessed to call him husband.
35:08Perhaps we should pay respect
35:10and offer what comfort may be afforded.
35:13The heat is a living thing, is it not?
35:15I would lay eyes upon Egyptian linen
35:17so breathlessly promised.
35:19Lest it evaporate in advance of purchase?
35:22Let us fall to purpose, then.
35:24And consider words with Tertius
35:26at later convenience.
35:32This charge upon whim,
35:34absent concern towards obligation,
35:36claimed my own.
35:37Crassus yanks his lease
35:39and expect obedient courage
35:40to fall to fucking heel.
35:46Does voice offend
35:47or do thoughts wander astray
35:49from fucking consideration?
35:50You care not for eyes upon us.
36:02Let us attend,
36:03demand an undertaking
36:04and return to Villa.
36:06Perhaps some fucking incident.
36:21Is this the sum of it?
36:23Or does the man seek to transport
36:25all of fucking Rome as well?
36:28What eyes lay upon
36:29is all I have been charged to deliver.
36:31Then our business conclude,
36:32fall from fucking sight.
36:34I will see us removed from the street
36:36in advance of encroaching night.
36:39Do you yet have more words to break?
36:42Or do you stand dumbstruck
36:43by glorious form before you?
36:45Apologies.
36:46I was instructed
36:47payment would be due upon
36:48receipt.
36:53And, uh,
36:54what is the sum?
36:56Thirty denarii.
36:59Thirty denarii.
37:04Purse stands shy of
37:05required sum.
37:06Send notice for balance
37:08and I shall see you satisfied.
37:10Upon what day?
37:12Of my fucking choosing.
37:15Press matter
37:16and find yourself forever
37:18absent of need
37:20of coin.
37:23At your leisure, then.
37:28the curse stands
37:29which is man
37:30and fucking republic.
37:31Yet it falls upon this house
37:33to see debt paid.
37:34How do you hold the man
37:35became so swollen
37:36with wealth?
37:37By shrewdly using
37:38the coin of others
37:39in place of his own.
37:41I think to aspire to.
37:44Pay mine towards footing.
37:48Injury to valued burden
37:49will be visited
37:50tenfold
37:51upon those accountable.
38:02Retrieve more water.
38:04I would see pool filled
38:05before a dominus returns.
38:07Or bravely humor
38:08so often unleashed.
38:11His mood is but reflective
38:13of forces brought to bear.
38:15You must not hold
38:16such against him.
38:17I shall do as commanded.
38:19You are not to speak
38:21to me in such manner.
38:22Apologies.
38:23for breaking
38:24unwanted words.
38:28Messier.
38:29What would you have me do?
38:31I cannot return feelings
38:32I do not hold.
38:33I wish to the gods
38:34I could reverse sun
38:35and see them unspoken.
38:38I do not mean
38:39to be unkind.
38:40Nor I.
38:41Yet I do not know
38:42how to be.
38:44Who am presented
38:45each day
38:46with that which I desire
38:47yet cannot have.
39:06your attention wonders, brother.
39:08towards vexing cores.
39:16It take well to style
39:18I've done the carers.
39:19I never favoured it.
39:22You stand too vulnerable
39:23absent, shield.
39:25Yours offered little protection
39:27when I sent you
39:28to fucking ground.
39:29Do not ascribe to skill
39:30what lies in fault of another.
39:34More careful thought
39:35will greet you
39:35next we meet.
39:39Strategy counselled
39:40by one more experienced.
39:49It is a heavy thing
39:51living beneath shadow
39:52of noble father.
39:56I live in no man's shadow.
39:58Only a woman's then.
40:06upon a day
40:08maybe in
40:11upon a fucking day
40:14officious
40:16let us ball
40:17to prop a fucking contest.
40:19Push!
40:20Push!
40:21Push!
40:22Push!
40:22Push!
40:22Push!
40:22Push!

40:29Push!
40:31Oh!
40:34How?
40:34Save are you?
40:36Oh!
40:37This one.
40:38A gift from the Gods.
40:40Never felt a sequel.
40:41I have yet more to offer
40:43one so luminous.
40:44The finest stola this city has ever beheld in anticipation of your father's games, sir.
40:53The games?
40:54Entering the pole when it's dressed in such finery shall precipitate absolute riot.
40:59I will not be in attendance.
41:01Your father expects it, sir.
41:03A desire I've not heard expressed from his lips.
41:06You must come, Viridia.
41:07You have been too long removed from eyes of adoring...
41:14Oh, it's...
41:17Oh, it's...
41:19Oh, it's...
41:20Inesco!
41:25Please, sir!
42:07Why you fall upon us?
42:09Pose question to noble husband
42:19We need but one part out from fucking life
42:28Fucking cunts
42:52The door!
42:55Ah!
42:57Ah!
43:04Ah!
43:06Ah!
43:06Ah!
43:08Ah!
43:12Keep moving, you fucking bitch!
43:14Or I should have your fucking life!
43:16Ah!
43:18Ah!
43:19Ah!
43:24Ah!
43:28Ah!
43:31Ah!
43:43Ah!
43:44Ah!
43:45Ah!
43:46Ah!
43:46Ah!
43:50Oh, no, no, no, no.
43:55Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
44:17Here are you!
44:18Oh, my God.
44:49Yes!
45:19Grrrhh!
45:25Grррr.
45:26Grr.
45:30Grrrrr!
45:30Grrr.
45:35Grrrrr!!
45:39Grrrr.
45:40Grrrr.
45:41Grrrrr.
45:41Grrrr.
45:43Grrrr.
45:43Grr.
45:44Grrr.
45:45Grrr.
45:46Grrrr.
45:57You are safe now.
46:06You are hurt.
46:08I was welcome a thousand such wounds.
46:11If earning of them.
46:13Yet so you grace this world.
46:15You know what I have you for from it.
46:17My life, the cause.
46:28Meridia!
46:33I thought you did!
46:38Such would have held true.
46:40Had Asher and his man not chanced upon us.
46:49Asher.
46:50Who are these men?
46:53What is this one of the policies of the manor?
46:57Selecians.
47:01We must return it to your villa.
47:03Quickly.
47:07Pirates.
47:08Here within city walls.
47:10So far removed from fucking sea.
47:13They grow bold absent proper response from Rome.
47:17Well, thank the gods.
47:18You did not fall to rancorous harm.
47:21They held no divinity in it.
47:23Asher and his man delivered us from untimely fate.
47:27Who would that Heratia stood us fortunate?
47:30The Edel's wife slain in the streets whilst Sonia graced fucking sky.
47:38Wife and daughter stood apparent bounty sought.
47:41There was ransom.
47:42One will suspect an outrage that shall be answered in blood.
47:47I fear it has already been drawn.
47:49He suffered injury in the exchange.
47:51No thought given to safety beyond our own.
47:54He shall be properly attended.
47:55See yourselves to bath and wine to calm inflamed nerves.
48:02Once more, tongue bends towards gratitude.
48:06Unnecessary.
48:08Ed gratefully received.
48:11I thank the gods you were present
48:14and had not succumbed to rumour of previous wounds.
48:19I best stood as any man of means and skill would have
48:22to protect the Republic.
48:27Fall to the baths.
48:29I would break words with the Syrian in private.
48:33We shall attend to Crassus' shipment.
48:39Crassus?
48:40We prepare for his imminent arrival.
48:43He disengages from his army in Rome,
48:45so entrenched outside its gates?
48:47Such as message recently dispatched into my hands.
48:50More than could be said of Pompey.
48:53He remains unmoved by request to unset from opposing perch
48:58and quell these Selytian cutthroats.
49:00Perhaps loss of untold men in failed attempt may give them pause.
49:06Or they shall see efforts redoubled
49:08at expense Hart can ill afford.
49:11We must remain vigilant against such possibility.
49:15The beloved daughter broke words carrying truth.
49:19Gratitude is owed.
49:23As is reward rising to level of deed.
49:30Your noble daughter yet among the living presents reward beyond measure.
49:36A debt unpaid promises future expense.
49:39Often many times original sum.
49:42It is well known, by all blessed with sense of fucking hearing,
49:46that you desire entry to approaching games of the Ludi Apollinaris.
49:51Thoughts occasionally turn upon subjects.
49:54And cease the churning of them.
49:55I shall see you well-positioned.
50:02I...
50:05I do not possess for it.
50:07Do not misconceive intent.
50:09I but erase debt.
50:11One I would not see plied against me upon inconvenient moment.
50:17Then we stand balanced in all regards.
50:21Come.
50:22I shall have my medicus attend your wounds.
50:24Oh, a burden I will not oppose.
50:26My own shall seat on concerning wounds.
50:28I assure you mine stands of greater skill.
50:30Of that I hold no question.
50:32Yet I prefer not to stand in your debt.
50:39You learn quickly, Syrian.
50:42Very well.
50:42Now, let us part ways equally untethered.
51:00You left Dominus at Cabinius' villa to return alone?
51:03Asher proves himself capable.
51:05Those who underestimate him do so at their own fucking peril.
51:09I would still see guards dispatched.
51:10Police concern aside.
51:12The man himself appears.
51:15Dominus!
51:17Fetch the medicus!
51:19Quickly!
51:19Oh, fuck medicus!
51:21I will bathe hard-fought wound in a river of fucking wine!
51:26Gabinius breaks words towards such elated mood?
51:29He breaks words that shall elevate this house.
51:32We stand blessed with position in his fucking games.
51:41And you, you fucking titan, your part in this shall not soon fall to this cottage remembrance.
51:51Wine!
51:52Where is the fucking wine?
51:54How did you broach subject with Gabinius?
51:56A thing not required.
51:57He offered unprompted reward towards rescue, beloved wife and daughter.
52:02And you maneuvered such towards advantage in the arena.
52:05I maneuvered nothing.
52:07Tongues went to leave from mouth at the thought, but...
52:11Heart held it fast in place.
52:14Viridia's life spared such reward enough to consume all desire.
52:20The gods, I hold no faith in favor, humble Asher.
52:27And you as well.
52:29With unwanted task now removed.
52:33Task?
52:35Lowering yourself to imagine affection to gain opener's aid towards the games.
52:40A preening little shit no longer stands of use.
52:44It is a relief not to be forced into his company.
52:50See all within this loot is the formation.
52:53Let us present glorious news.
52:56A fucking ascension!
53:15You expect Burning Gaze to set her aflame?
53:19If I were so fortunate, surely my father would rush to extinguish Blaze.
53:32This house has given rise to story champions of lore and legends.
53:38Yet all who have come before shall pale against what I have fought with blood and bone to see opportunity
53:46presented.
53:47And such have been secured.
53:51We have gained position in the games of the ludi Apollinaries!
53:59And who shall grace the sands, Dominus?
54:01Talcon, Holtan.
54:03The boy is overcome by visions of glory.
54:08Positions and placement have yet to be broached.
54:11Yet know this.
54:12We shall see the brothers Ferox the fucking grasp for offense presented by the shit Proculus.
54:19By the hands of the goddess of fucking death.
54:28Fall to your beds and gather strength for coming days.
54:31I will announce those among you who are for the arena.
54:34Dominus!
54:35Procession has been spotted up on road towards Vela.
54:44Our patron Crassus at last arrives.
54:47Let him stand at all.
54:49At the fearsome offering of the house of fucking Asher!
55:00Altoria!
55:01Fall to my side.
55:02And let us create destiny with worthy embrace.
55:16Do ropes follow matter pleasing to eye?
55:19You intend to welcome the man to present your ass for his pleasure.
55:24His wagon arrives.
55:27Straighten backs.
55:28Assume pleasant disposition yet cast gaze downwards to avoid catching eye.
55:52Chorus, three steps linger in a pace.
56:19Mighty Crassus, you honor us with your noble presence.
56:22You mistake me, Sirian.
56:27Caesar.
56:29Caesar.
56:31Caesar.
56:34Caesar.
56:37Caesar.
56:39Caesar.
56:40Caesar.
56:49Caesar.
56:51Caesar.
