1
00:00:15,891 --> 00:00:16,767
[grunting]
2
00:00:17,184 --> 00:00:17,852
- [blade rings, blood splatters]
- [yells]
3
00:00:18,018 --> 00:00:18,936
[grunts]
4
00:00:20,187 --> 00:00:21,105
Doctore!
5
00:00:21,731 --> 00:00:24,859
Korris yet lives, though
grievously fucking injured.
6
00:00:25,025 --> 00:00:26,527
Proculus moves against us?
7
00:00:26,694 --> 00:00:29,405
The villain Fides is known
to be his man upon occasion.
8
00:00:29,739 --> 00:00:31,073
What of your task?
9
00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:32,533
[Korris] I broke words
and wine with Opiter
10
00:00:32,700 --> 00:00:34,285
and gained his confidence.
11
00:00:34,410 --> 00:00:37,455
I would see my men in deserved
position in the impending games.
12
00:00:37,621 --> 00:00:40,124
Elevating the Syrian
at my own expense?
13
00:00:40,291 --> 00:00:43,377
What of dispatches from Rome?
Any been received?
14
00:00:43,544 --> 00:00:44,587
No, Dominus.
15
00:00:44,754 --> 00:00:46,046
[Gabinius] Viridia.
16
00:00:46,213 --> 00:00:48,924
It swells heart to see
you stir from chambers.
17
00:00:49,049 --> 00:00:50,217
The Syrian.
18
00:00:50,801 --> 00:00:52,136
[Korris] Should the gods
favor you towards the arena,
19
00:00:52,303 --> 00:00:53,637
you shall face three-
20
00:00:54,305 --> 00:00:55,556
the Brothers Ferox,
21
00:00:55,723 --> 00:00:57,600
vicious half-men.
22
00:00:58,434 --> 00:01:00,603
Dominus has tainted it
by positioning woman
23
00:01:00,770 --> 00:01:02,271
towards the arena.
24
00:01:02,438 --> 00:01:05,649
[Ashur] Seize fate as
champion of this fucking house.
25
00:01:07,151 --> 00:01:09,028
[blades ring, blood splatters]
26
00:01:09,195 --> 00:01:12,615
[rapid percussive music,
vocalizing]
27
00:01:13,282 --> 00:01:18,245
[dark, eerie music]
28
00:01:18,412 --> 00:01:21,916
[unnerving music]
29
00:01:28,297 --> 00:01:29,924
[steady, pulsating music]
30
00:01:30,090 --> 00:01:31,550
[thud on shield]
31
00:01:39,015 --> 00:01:41,227
[Celadus] Brothers Ferox
may be twisted in form,
32
00:01:41,393 --> 00:01:43,687
yet stand fierce opponent
33
00:01:43,854 --> 00:01:45,689
capable of sending any man...
34
00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:47,733
or woman
35
00:01:48,359 --> 00:01:49,693
into the afterlife.
36
00:01:50,319 --> 00:01:53,322
[steady, pulsating music
continues]
37
00:01:53,489 --> 00:01:55,741
[yelling]
38
00:02:00,204 --> 00:02:01,038
[crack]
39
00:02:01,163 --> 00:02:02,957
[yells in pain]
40
00:02:05,209 --> 00:02:07,211
Send the cunt to grass
and be done with it.
41
00:02:07,378 --> 00:02:09,128
[men laugh]
42
00:02:09,630 --> 00:02:11,006
[yelps]
43
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:13,926
[Celadus] Note distraction.
44
00:02:14,093 --> 00:02:17,471
Pulling attention and blessing
Satyrus with open attack.
45
00:02:20,432 --> 00:02:23,769
[yelling]
46
00:02:24,353 --> 00:02:25,728
Good. Good.
47
00:02:27,439 --> 00:02:29,316
Now press advantage.
48
00:02:30,901 --> 00:02:32,736
[screams aggressively]
49
00:02:34,405 --> 00:02:36,781
[grunting, shouting]
50
00:02:37,575 --> 00:02:39,118
[music stops]
51
00:02:41,412 --> 00:02:45,165
[coughs breathlessly, splutters]
52
00:02:45,332 --> 00:02:47,209
[Tarchon]
You assume proper place
53
00:02:48,377 --> 00:02:49,503
for weakened animal.
54
00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:51,380
[men laugh]
55
00:02:56,802 --> 00:02:59,805
[Achillia coughs,
breathes heavily]
56
00:03:02,850 --> 00:03:04,059
[Ashur] Ah.
57
00:03:07,605 --> 00:03:10,524
[Ashur] Is it intent
to lay in repose all morning
58
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:14,820
or prove worthy of the mark
of Brotherhood you now bear
59
00:03:15,446 --> 00:03:17,781
and rise to fucking occasion?
60
00:03:17,948 --> 00:03:20,367
[urines continues trickling]
61
00:03:20,784 --> 00:03:23,537
Dominus, a message arrives.
62
00:03:24,079 --> 00:03:25,204
From Crassus.
63
00:03:26,498 --> 00:03:28,751
[dramatic music swells]
64
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:31,253
[Ashur] Aha.
65
00:03:31,420 --> 00:03:33,881
'Prepare for honored arrival.'
66
00:03:38,010 --> 00:03:40,596
That is the sum of it?
67
00:03:41,388 --> 00:03:43,265
[Hilara]
It stands all received.
68
00:03:43,390 --> 00:03:44,767
When?
69
00:03:44,934 --> 00:03:47,311
When will Crassus bless us
with fucking presence?
70
00:03:47,478 --> 00:03:49,021
[Messia] We do not know.
71
00:03:49,897 --> 00:03:52,900
Question was not posed
expecting fucking reply.
72
00:03:53,776 --> 00:03:54,860
[sighs]
73
00:03:56,612 --> 00:03:58,322
See floor polished
to reflection.
74
00:03:58,489 --> 00:04:01,325
Fill pool with water,
fresh and clear.
75
00:04:01,492 --> 00:04:03,577
Messia will attend
to menial duties.
76
00:04:04,161 --> 00:04:05,371
Go.
77
00:04:05,996 --> 00:04:08,165
[Ashur] We must present
finest wines and exotic meats.
78
00:04:08,749 --> 00:04:11,293
Have meal prepared to move the
gods themselves to salivation.
79
00:04:11,418 --> 00:04:13,337
- For this day?
- Every fucking day
80
00:04:13,504 --> 00:04:16,757
until Crassus materializes
or coffer runs fucking dry.
81
00:04:16,923 --> 00:04:19,301
We cannot bear such
expense beyond week's end.
82
00:04:19,468 --> 00:04:23,514
You break words towards any
beyond fucking calamity?
83
00:04:25,391 --> 00:04:26,392
Apologies.
84
00:04:27,476 --> 00:04:30,938
Sentiment deserved to be broken
from my tongue alone.
85
00:04:32,022 --> 00:04:34,233
Fuck Jupiter's face!
86
00:04:34,692 --> 00:04:36,318
We stand ill-timed for Crassus,
87
00:04:36,485 --> 00:04:38,654
absent position
in approaching games.
88
00:04:38,821 --> 00:04:41,448
How do labors progress
in such regard?
89
00:04:42,157 --> 00:04:44,118
Vexing at fucking best.
90
00:04:44,576 --> 00:04:46,161
Gabinius stands maker
of decision,
91
00:04:46,328 --> 00:04:49,331
yet his bitch Cossutia
growls and froths
92
00:04:49,498 --> 00:04:52,209
like Cerberus at the gate,
denying entry.
93
00:04:53,419 --> 00:04:54,670
What of Opiter?
94
00:04:56,296 --> 00:04:57,756
Korris lays infirm,
95
00:04:58,632 --> 00:05:01,844
unable to ply the man with
honey word towards cause.
96
00:05:01,969 --> 00:05:03,345
Even if so swayed,
97
00:05:03,512 --> 00:05:07,391
I fear Cossutia will hold
fast in hateful resolution.
98
00:05:07,933 --> 00:05:09,601
A concern well shared.
99
00:05:10,602 --> 00:05:13,522
Yet something fucking
must move the woman.
100
00:05:13,689 --> 00:05:15,941
[woman moans sensually]
101
00:05:19,486 --> 00:05:22,531
[moans erotically]
102
00:05:25,576 --> 00:05:27,578
Your man possesses
admirable talent
103
00:05:27,745 --> 00:05:29,329
beyond sands of the arena.
104
00:05:29,496 --> 00:05:33,584
His enthusiasm but rises
to the occasion of your beauty.
105
00:05:34,460 --> 00:05:38,589
- [Cossutia laughs pleasurably]
- More wine?
106
00:05:39,673 --> 00:05:41,633
[moans passionately] I would...
107
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:42,968
pause...
108
00:05:43,302 --> 00:05:45,971
a moment. [pants]
109
00:05:48,682 --> 00:05:50,642
[giggles excitedly]
110
00:05:50,808 --> 00:05:52,603
Ah!
111
00:05:52,770 --> 00:05:54,229
[sighs]
112
00:05:56,398 --> 00:05:58,025
Gratitude!
113
00:05:59,735 --> 00:06:02,321
- Leave us.
- [Cossutia sighs lightly]
114
00:06:03,405 --> 00:06:04,865
[giggles breathlessly]
115
00:06:05,032 --> 00:06:09,244
How I wish aged husband
possessed such artful tongue.
116
00:06:10,496 --> 00:06:13,082
- Beyond oration in the Senate.
- [Opiter chuckles]
117
00:06:13,248 --> 00:06:16,460
- How fares good Gabinius?
- Oh, I would hardly know.
118
00:06:16,585 --> 00:06:18,253
His gaze is forever towards Rome
119
00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:21,548
and growing tensions between
Pompey and Crassus.
120
00:06:22,007 --> 00:06:24,968
A grievous concern,
that of civil war.
121
00:06:25,636 --> 00:06:27,679
Yet Cilician threat
122
00:06:27,805 --> 00:06:30,057
to ports and goods
more pressing.
123
00:06:30,224 --> 00:06:32,601
We stand well removed from
waters of the Tyrrhenian
124
00:06:32,768 --> 00:06:35,437
and fucking plunderers
upon its waves.
125
00:06:35,604 --> 00:06:38,899
And yet bodies have been found
in our very streets,
126
00:06:39,983 --> 00:06:42,361
perhaps fallen
to Cilician blades.
127
00:06:42,528 --> 00:06:43,529
Bodies?
128
00:06:43,654 --> 00:06:45,280
Six, discovered
in wake of storm.
129
00:06:45,614 --> 00:06:46,698
Among them
130
00:06:47,074 --> 00:06:48,575
the brute Fides,
131
00:06:49,326 --> 00:06:51,787
an unpleasant specimen
favored by Proculus.
132
00:06:52,329 --> 00:06:55,249
Throat slit as gutted fish.
133
00:06:56,457 --> 00:06:57,584
[blade rings]
134
00:06:57,709 --> 00:07:00,003
[thunder booms]
135
00:07:00,921 --> 00:07:02,005
I did not know the man.
136
00:07:02,923 --> 00:07:06,009
Perhaps he fell to misadventure
of his own construction.
137
00:07:06,844 --> 00:07:09,096
[sighs] It stands
deepest mystery
138
00:07:09,263 --> 00:07:12,349
why I yet wear this,
139
00:07:13,100 --> 00:07:17,437
yesterday's fashion extended
beyond use or consideration.
140
00:07:17,563 --> 00:07:21,441
Sackcloth is elevated to silk
upon frames such as yours.
141
00:07:21,608 --> 00:07:23,694
Sackcloth shall be
a blessing before long.
142
00:07:23,819 --> 00:07:27,656
It stands impossible challenge
to obtain new fabric
143
00:07:27,823 --> 00:07:31,577
with those Cilician shits
preying upon our merchant ships.
144
00:07:31,743 --> 00:07:33,662
Word upon breeze
has caressed ear
145
00:07:33,829 --> 00:07:35,998
of the finest Egyptian linens
146
00:07:36,165 --> 00:07:38,332
arriving tomorrow
at gates' close,
147
00:07:38,917 --> 00:07:41,211
to be received by
the trader, Spurius.
148
00:07:42,671 --> 00:07:43,839
Egyptian?
149
00:07:44,381 --> 00:07:47,426
- Are you certain?
- As sun breaking dawn each day.
150
00:07:48,969 --> 00:07:52,222
Gratitude for
timely consideration.
151
00:07:52,347 --> 00:07:53,432
Are we not friends?
152
00:07:53,599 --> 00:07:55,517
One I would see
mountains reformed
153
00:07:55,642 --> 00:07:57,186
towards shared interests.
154
00:07:57,352 --> 00:08:00,397
[chuckles] I would not
ask such Herculean effort.
155
00:08:00,522 --> 00:08:01,398
Mmm.
156
00:08:02,482 --> 00:08:06,612
Yet...there is one favor
I would humbly entreat.
157
00:08:06,778 --> 00:08:09,031
Oh, give it voice and
see it well received.
158
00:08:09,198 --> 00:08:12,743
Thoughts turn towards
games of Ludi Apollinares
159
00:08:12,910 --> 00:08:14,328
noble husband presents.
160
00:08:14,453 --> 00:08:15,537
Place mind at ease.
161
00:08:15,704 --> 00:08:16,622
Your men shall hold
position in them.
162
00:08:16,747 --> 00:08:18,248
Honored, as always.
163
00:08:18,624 --> 00:08:21,501
Yet I broach subject
not for myself but...
164
00:08:22,127 --> 00:08:23,921
for the House of Ashur.
165
00:08:26,632 --> 00:08:28,467
You petition for
the fucking Syrian?
166
00:08:28,634 --> 00:08:31,220
By tenuous association only.
167
00:08:31,845 --> 00:08:35,640
I speak toward worthy figure
of his Doctore, Korris,
168
00:08:36,558 --> 00:08:38,894
deserving of the presentation
of his labors.
169
00:08:42,648 --> 00:08:45,067
What stand you to gain from...
170
00:08:45,734 --> 00:08:46,985
unsavory request?
171
00:08:47,152 --> 00:08:49,071
A man indebted by gracious act
172
00:08:49,238 --> 00:08:52,157
pays future dividends
when called upon.
173
00:08:53,116 --> 00:08:54,284
You have always possessed
174
00:08:54,451 --> 00:08:56,286
delicate sensibilities
of foresight.
175
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,413
Yet I fear
176
00:08:58,914 --> 00:09:00,582
this may have been...
177
00:09:01,625 --> 00:09:03,585
rare miscalculation.
178
00:09:04,294 --> 00:09:06,171
[scoffs] In what regard?
179
00:09:06,338 --> 00:09:09,424
Rumor vibrates that
the Syrian's man
180
00:09:09,591 --> 00:09:12,636
has suffered grievous injury.
181
00:09:13,595 --> 00:09:14,888
- Injury?
- Mm.
182
00:09:17,140 --> 00:09:18,308
Does he yet live?
183
00:09:18,475 --> 00:09:21,228
[winces]
184
00:09:23,438 --> 00:09:25,023
[Korris] Fuck the gods!
185
00:09:25,190 --> 00:09:26,191
Ah.
186
00:09:26,942 --> 00:09:30,028
We at last come to
common ground upon subject.
187
00:09:31,113 --> 00:09:32,322
How does he fare?
188
00:09:32,739 --> 00:09:35,325
Do you not see me
fucking rise before you?
189
00:09:36,159 --> 00:09:39,579
With spirits inflamed,
although weak of flesh.
190
00:09:39,705 --> 00:09:41,748
I yet draw breath. [winces]
191
00:09:41,915 --> 00:09:44,001
And the rest shall
follow shortly.
192
00:09:44,126 --> 00:09:45,711
News to harden cock.
193
00:09:46,670 --> 00:09:49,381
As what I break shall in return.
194
00:09:50,299 --> 00:09:53,343
Crassus sends word
of impending arrival.
195
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:54,511
Crassus?
196
00:09:55,429 --> 00:09:57,764
- Upon what hour?
- Enigma yet to be revealed.
197
00:09:57,931 --> 00:09:59,308
It weighs thought,
198
00:09:59,433 --> 00:10:01,852
where he will stand
towards house conspiring
199
00:10:02,019 --> 00:10:03,437
to present a woman in the arena.
200
00:10:03,603 --> 00:10:05,105
As long as it heralds
adulation from the crowd
201
00:10:05,272 --> 00:10:09,151
and coin in fucking palm,
Crassus shall stand delighted.
202
00:10:10,068 --> 00:10:11,987
We will then turn favorable
humor towards advantage
203
00:10:12,154 --> 00:10:15,073
and press the man to commit
effort into rebuilding the arena
204
00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,534
destroyed by Spartacus
and his mongrels.
205
00:10:17,701 --> 00:10:19,411
Assuming we gain position
in the arena.
206
00:10:19,536 --> 00:10:22,497
When we gain position.
207
00:10:22,914 --> 00:10:24,207
You fucking goat.
208
00:10:25,459 --> 00:10:28,045
Come. You stand in need
of food and wine...
209
00:10:29,254 --> 00:10:30,589
and cleansing waters
210
00:10:30,714 --> 00:10:33,508
to remove stench of
narrowly averted death.
211
00:10:36,595 --> 00:10:38,555
I have stationed men
upon ridge to give signal
212
00:10:38,722 --> 00:10:40,182
when procession comes to view.
213
00:10:40,349 --> 00:10:43,560
When sounded, I would
have you fall to my side-
214
00:10:43,727 --> 00:10:44,728
Dominus.
215
00:10:44,895 --> 00:10:46,813
We have received
unannounced guest.
216
00:10:47,439 --> 00:10:49,566
Good Opiter! [chuckles lightly]
217
00:10:49,733 --> 00:10:52,694
You grace us with
unexpected presence.
218
00:10:52,861 --> 00:10:55,822
Gratitude stands in order
for your generous gift of grain.
219
00:10:55,989 --> 00:10:57,699
Oh, give it no thought.
[chuckles]
220
00:10:57,866 --> 00:11:01,745
Apologies for appearing in
advance of proper... warning.
221
00:11:01,912 --> 00:11:04,831
News only just reached ear
of your man's injuries.
222
00:11:04,956 --> 00:11:06,708
I had feared him
no longer among us.
223
00:11:06,875 --> 00:11:09,711
I yet cling to fucking life and
stand absent need for concern.
224
00:11:09,878 --> 00:11:14,549
Oh, he exaggerates recovery
as a matter of pride.
225
00:11:14,716 --> 00:11:16,760
Apologies. I would offer
wine and midday repast,
226
00:11:16,927 --> 00:11:19,930
yet pressing concerns
pulls me to market.
227
00:11:20,347 --> 00:11:22,766
- I shall take my leave, then.
- Oh, no. Remain.
228
00:11:22,933 --> 00:11:25,894
Korris is to the baths
to soak troubled wounds.
229
00:11:26,478 --> 00:11:27,938
Concern will be
put from thought
230
00:11:28,063 --> 00:11:30,607
knowing the weight of
his suffering is lifted
231
00:11:31,274 --> 00:11:32,818
by caring hands.
232
00:11:33,235 --> 00:11:34,694
[intriguing music]
233
00:11:34,861 --> 00:11:36,863
Your presence
would lend comfort.
234
00:11:40,242 --> 00:11:42,494
[steam whooshes]
235
00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:47,749
[intriguing music continues]
236
00:11:48,792 --> 00:11:51,169
Are you often invited
into the Syrian's bath?
237
00:11:52,254 --> 00:11:55,048
It has been known to happen,
upon occasion.
238
00:11:55,215 --> 00:11:56,383
Hmm.
239
00:11:56,842 --> 00:11:59,094
I was unaware he
possessed such...
240
00:11:59,886 --> 00:12:01,012
appetites.
241
00:12:01,596 --> 00:12:04,349
His desires do not extend
towards his fucking Doctore,
242
00:12:04,516 --> 00:12:05,767
nor mine towards his.
243
00:12:05,934 --> 00:12:09,104
You do not favor one
of such rich complexion?
244
00:12:09,271 --> 00:12:11,648
The tone of a man's skin
stands meaningless.
245
00:12:12,399 --> 00:12:13,567
When cut,
246
00:12:14,151 --> 00:12:15,527
the color holds equal for all.
247
00:12:15,694 --> 00:12:16,695
Ow!
248
00:12:17,863 --> 00:12:19,364
Fall from presence.
249
00:12:30,333 --> 00:12:33,420
A woman's hands
offer rough comfort.
250
00:12:37,090 --> 00:12:39,468
A man's, more...
251
00:12:39,634 --> 00:12:42,262
familiar with rugged terrain...
252
00:12:44,306 --> 00:12:46,725
traverses with practiced ease.
253
00:12:49,144 --> 00:12:51,229
You need not burden yourself
with such a chore.
254
00:12:51,354 --> 00:12:53,815
Hm. It's a rare privilege
255
00:12:53,982 --> 00:12:56,610
for a mere mortal
to touch the heavens.
256
00:12:58,236 --> 00:13:01,406
[intriguing music]
257
00:13:01,573 --> 00:13:03,867
Who handled you so roughly?
258
00:13:06,369 --> 00:13:07,746
An old acquaintance
259
00:13:07,913 --> 00:13:10,248
who took issue with
recent conversation.
260
00:13:10,874 --> 00:13:12,876
Does the villain carry a name?
261
00:13:13,293 --> 00:13:14,336
Fides.
262
00:13:15,128 --> 00:13:17,130
He fell upon me with
a clutch of men.
263
00:13:17,631 --> 00:13:18,924
Their lives claimed
for the offense,
264
00:13:19,090 --> 00:13:22,052
yet the man himself
fluttered to the winds.
265
00:13:22,219 --> 00:13:23,970
And swiftly plummeted,
266
00:13:24,554 --> 00:13:26,556
never to spread wings again.
267
00:13:28,767 --> 00:13:30,727
Fides no longer draws breath?
268
00:13:31,186 --> 00:13:33,104
Difficulty with throat slit.
269
00:13:35,232 --> 00:13:37,567
Wounds not inflicted
by my hands.
270
00:13:38,235 --> 00:13:39,236
Then whose?
271
00:13:39,778 --> 00:13:41,988
He was known to have
dealings with Proculus,
272
00:13:42,781 --> 00:13:44,866
a thing I'm certain
you're well aware of.
273
00:13:45,951 --> 00:13:47,369
I have witnessed such
274
00:13:48,245 --> 00:13:51,081
and mentioned
to Cossutia this very day.
275
00:13:52,958 --> 00:13:57,963
Troubles me to see flesh
so marred by base maneuverings.
276
00:13:59,756 --> 00:14:02,842
I would see wounds
visited tenfold
277
00:14:03,009 --> 00:14:04,553
upon Proculus' men
278
00:14:04,970 --> 00:14:06,388
in the arena.
279
00:14:08,515 --> 00:14:11,726
Twice in as many visits
you have mentioned desire
280
00:14:11,893 --> 00:14:13,979
to see yourself in the games.
281
00:14:15,897 --> 00:14:19,317
Is such your own desire
in holding my company?
282
00:14:20,569 --> 00:14:22,404
I am Doctore of this house.
283
00:14:23,321 --> 00:14:26,116
Glory in the arena
consumes fucking mind.
284
00:14:26,241 --> 00:14:27,993
As well as that of the Syrian,
285
00:14:28,410 --> 00:14:29,911
one would assume.
286
00:14:32,956 --> 00:14:35,083
[chuckles]
287
00:14:35,250 --> 00:14:37,002
It's a thing of no matter.
288
00:14:38,044 --> 00:14:39,796
We must all play our part
289
00:14:39,921 --> 00:14:43,216
in this game of men
and their ambitions.
290
00:14:45,719 --> 00:14:49,097
Words to be agreed upon.
[chuckles]
291
00:14:49,264 --> 00:14:51,349
Place worried thought aside.
292
00:14:52,017 --> 00:14:53,768
I have broached subject
with Cossutia
293
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:57,897
and will revisit upon
soonest opportunity.
294
00:15:00,025 --> 00:15:02,736
Gratitude towards effort...
295
00:15:04,321 --> 00:15:06,197
wherever such may lead.
296
00:15:08,408 --> 00:15:10,702
[intriguing music continues]
297
00:15:10,869 --> 00:15:14,748
Next time you find
yourself in need...
298
00:15:16,374 --> 00:15:18,668
[longing music]
299
00:15:20,170 --> 00:15:21,338
part lips...
300
00:15:23,298 --> 00:15:25,592
and I shall storm Olympus
301
00:15:25,759 --> 00:15:27,677
to see you satisfied.
302
00:15:33,975 --> 00:15:35,560
[chuckles softly]
303
00:15:39,439 --> 00:15:41,566
A bold claim...
304
00:15:45,362 --> 00:15:47,155
for one so slight.
305
00:15:48,114 --> 00:15:51,409
Valiant purpose soars
in your presence.
306
00:15:53,495 --> 00:15:56,706
Is gesture yet in
service of the Syrian?
307
00:16:00,752 --> 00:16:03,588
He stands far
from fucking thought.
308
00:16:08,259 --> 00:16:11,304
[vigorous flute music plays,
drums beat]
309
00:16:11,471 --> 00:16:13,765
[woman moans lustfully]
310
00:16:14,474 --> 00:16:16,768
[indistinct chatter]
311
00:16:18,061 --> 00:16:22,649
Beef and fowl unmatched
by any offering in Capua!
312
00:16:23,525 --> 00:16:25,193
Oysters stand fresh?
313
00:16:25,819 --> 00:16:28,613
Neptune himself blesses
each fucking one of them.
314
00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:32,492
They smell of his ass.
315
00:16:33,535 --> 00:16:36,037
What make you of
the moray and sar? Huh?
316
00:16:36,204 --> 00:16:38,581
I fear they threaten
to exceed weight of purse,
317
00:16:38,998 --> 00:16:40,625
added to what stands
already purchased.
318
00:16:40,792 --> 00:16:43,545
You would see Crassus presented
with thin fucking offering?
319
00:16:43,670 --> 00:16:45,714
I would see him well attended,
320
00:16:46,381 --> 00:16:48,508
short of coffers
emptied in attempt.
321
00:16:48,675 --> 00:16:51,344
- You fret beyond reason.
- Yet not beyond purpose.
322
00:16:52,178 --> 00:16:56,182
As vilica, am I not charged
with the accounts of your house?
323
00:16:56,599 --> 00:16:57,892
You stand so.
324
00:16:58,977 --> 00:17:03,106
And I benefactor of
such attentive counsel.
325
00:17:03,523 --> 00:17:06,025
[crowd cheers in distance]
326
00:17:09,404 --> 00:17:11,448
[vigorous flute music plays,
drums beat]
327
00:17:11,614 --> 00:17:13,907
[crowd laughs]
328
00:17:14,659 --> 00:17:16,327
[men grunt]
329
00:17:16,493 --> 00:17:20,290
[vigorous flute music
and drums continue]
330
00:17:23,626 --> 00:17:25,420
[crowd laughs]
331
00:17:25,587 --> 00:17:27,839
[crowd cheer, boo]
332
00:17:28,548 --> 00:17:29,799
[crowd laughs]
333
00:17:29,966 --> 00:17:32,761
- Ammonius, victor once again.
- [crowd cheers]
334
00:17:32,886 --> 00:17:34,304
I almost fucking had him.
335
00:17:34,471 --> 00:17:36,890
You almost had his cock
in fucking arse.
336
00:17:37,056 --> 00:17:39,434
[crowd laughs]
337
00:17:39,559 --> 00:17:41,478
Good citizens of Capua,
338
00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:45,857
in honor of the approaching
games of the Ludi Apollinares,
339
00:17:45,982 --> 00:17:48,902
I again invite any Roman
to step forth
340
00:17:49,068 --> 00:17:52,530
and test worth against
the House of Proculus!
341
00:17:52,697 --> 00:17:54,532
[crowd cheers]
342
00:17:54,699 --> 00:17:55,742
Yeah!
343
00:17:57,660 --> 00:18:00,830
The House of Ashur would
see challenge accepted.
344
00:18:05,460 --> 00:18:07,128
Upon the sands of the arena.
345
00:18:07,295 --> 00:18:08,254
[crowd mutters]
346
00:18:08,421 --> 00:18:10,465
You stand absent giant shadow.
347
00:18:11,090 --> 00:18:13,301
Where lurks your mighty Doctore?
348
00:18:13,468 --> 00:18:16,679
Trainer of those who fall
against better fucking men.
349
00:18:16,846 --> 00:18:19,182
[crowd laughs]
350
00:18:19,349 --> 00:18:21,351
I thought it courtesy he
not eclipse your children
351
00:18:21,476 --> 00:18:24,145
spilled from aberrant womb.
352
00:18:24,312 --> 00:18:25,855
[crowd laughs]
353
00:18:26,022 --> 00:18:27,482
We spill but wine
354
00:18:27,649 --> 00:18:30,652
and the blood of shit and piss
you deem fucking champion.
355
00:18:30,819 --> 00:18:32,695
[crowd laughs]
356
00:18:32,862 --> 00:18:34,239
Victory well earned,
357
00:18:34,656 --> 00:18:36,616
even for half-men.
358
00:18:36,950 --> 00:18:38,576
[Crowd] Ooh!
359
00:18:38,743 --> 00:18:40,870
Yet, let us see
contest revisited
360
00:18:41,037 --> 00:18:44,415
against the newest offering
from the House of Ashur.
361
00:18:45,834 --> 00:18:48,294
A sight of wonder and awe,
362
00:18:48,461 --> 00:18:51,464
never before witnessed
upon the sands of the arena.
363
00:18:53,049 --> 00:18:55,343
Let the Syrian
move good Gabinius
364
00:18:55,510 --> 00:18:57,637
to secure position
in the games,
365
00:18:57,804 --> 00:19:00,348
and then behold
the Brothers Ferox,
366
00:19:00,515 --> 00:19:04,602
as again they send his
champion to deserved end.
367
00:19:04,769 --> 00:19:06,938
[crowd cheers]
368
00:19:07,272 --> 00:19:09,524
We stand ready to fuck
369
00:19:09,691 --> 00:19:12,610
all who dare stand before us.
370
00:19:12,777 --> 00:19:14,445
[crowd laughs]
371
00:19:14,571 --> 00:19:18,241
Colossal words from
such little fucking man.
372
00:19:18,575 --> 00:19:19,367
Perhaps--
373
00:19:19,492 --> 00:19:23,288
[crowd laughs, cheers]
374
00:19:23,454 --> 00:19:25,707
[Satyrus] Brother Balbus
shows us the way!
375
00:19:25,874 --> 00:19:28,835
[crowd laughs]
376
00:19:29,002 --> 00:19:31,379
Let us honor the Syrian
with gifts of food
377
00:19:31,546 --> 00:19:35,383
to feed malnourished men
beneath his fucking roof!
378
00:19:35,550 --> 00:19:38,469
- [crowd laughs, jeers]
- [woman] Fuck the Syrian!
379
00:19:38,595 --> 00:19:42,307
[man] Go to fucking hell!
Fucking cunt!
380
00:19:45,810 --> 00:19:47,478
[laughter]
381
00:19:47,645 --> 00:19:49,606
[Erato] Words fall
as shit from mouth.
382
00:19:49,772 --> 00:19:51,357
It stands fucking so.
383
00:19:51,524 --> 00:19:56,154
I witnessed a woman graced with
cunt and cock, one atop another.
384
00:19:56,321 --> 00:19:58,114
[all laugh]
385
00:19:58,239 --> 00:20:00,700
So did you fuck her, or she you?
386
00:20:00,867 --> 00:20:02,785
[all laugh]
387
00:20:04,746 --> 00:20:07,749
[indistinct chatter, laughter]
388
00:20:18,593 --> 00:20:21,596
[Celadus] My own shit would
offer more flavored taste.
389
00:20:22,347 --> 00:20:25,350
[men laugh in background]
390
00:20:25,767 --> 00:20:28,436
Does cook offer anything
beyond fucking porridge?
391
00:20:28,603 --> 00:20:32,941
Hm. Houses of higher esteem
have been known to present meat.
392
00:20:33,066 --> 00:20:34,484
The gods fuck us, then.
393
00:20:34,651 --> 00:20:37,320
A thing of deep familiarity
beneath this roof.
394
00:20:39,322 --> 00:20:41,658
- You stand not afraid?
- Towards?
395
00:20:42,116 --> 00:20:44,661
Breaking meal
with someone so hated.
396
00:20:44,827 --> 00:20:46,454
[scoffs] They but
fall to distemper
397
00:20:46,621 --> 00:20:49,332
in response to your promised
station as champion.
398
00:20:49,499 --> 00:20:51,876
Absent time and effort
has claimed their own.
399
00:20:52,043 --> 00:20:55,672
I bear the mark of the fucking
Brotherhood, as they do.
400
00:20:55,838 --> 00:20:56,839
Yet not as they earned it.
401
00:20:57,006 --> 00:20:58,800
A thing not of my choosing.
402
00:20:59,425 --> 00:21:01,302
We all set upon rightful path,
403
00:21:01,970 --> 00:21:04,764
footfall placed upon succession,
one following another.
404
00:21:05,348 --> 00:21:08,017
You fall to seat only
to break words absent meaning?
405
00:21:08,184 --> 00:21:09,477
[chuckles]
406
00:21:10,061 --> 00:21:12,563
Bold proclamation from one who
spent the morning upon ground,
407
00:21:12,689 --> 00:21:14,190
mouth filled with fucking dirt.
408
00:21:14,357 --> 00:21:17,568
Give name to one among us
who could best three opponents.
409
00:21:17,735 --> 00:21:20,405
If Dominus maneuvers entry
to games next presented,
410
00:21:20,530 --> 00:21:23,741
you shall face equal
number in the arena.
411
00:21:23,908 --> 00:21:26,536
[scoffs] The Brothers Ferox?
412
00:21:26,703 --> 00:21:28,663
Half-men barely formed
beyond that of a child.
413
00:21:28,830 --> 00:21:31,874
Bend your fucking ear and
you clutch my words to heart.
414
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:35,837
The Brothers fight as one,
with singular mind.
415
00:21:37,005 --> 00:21:41,718
The men that you face here
stand absent such purpose.
416
00:21:43,886 --> 00:21:46,639
[all giggle childishly]
417
00:21:46,806 --> 00:21:49,183
They appear of singular mind
to fucking eyes.
418
00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:50,893
Yet one presses attack
419
00:21:51,060 --> 00:21:53,896
absent thought of those who
would aid him in such regard.
420
00:21:54,230 --> 00:21:57,608
You fight but single opponent.
421
00:21:58,526 --> 00:22:00,737
You best him, and the
others will quickly fall.
422
00:22:02,905 --> 00:22:05,074
[contemplative music]
423
00:22:05,241 --> 00:22:06,826
You speak of your son.
424
00:22:07,618 --> 00:22:11,497
- Tarchon?
- No, I speak of a gladiator...
425
00:22:12,832 --> 00:22:15,918
consumed by hubris,
with a thirst for glory.
426
00:22:17,378 --> 00:22:21,382
A thing to be tempered if
he is to survive in the arena.
427
00:22:30,058 --> 00:22:31,642
[grunts]
428
00:22:32,977 --> 00:22:34,270
[suspenseful music]
429
00:22:34,395 --> 00:22:37,315
Take stock of what
you see before you.
430
00:22:38,399 --> 00:22:42,737
This is what Capua
thinks of our house,
431
00:22:43,613 --> 00:22:48,284
because none of you shits
demonstrate fucking worth!
432
00:22:49,911 --> 00:22:52,914
You gorge yourself
upon my generosity,
433
00:22:53,081 --> 00:22:54,624
-and in return,
-[bowl shatters]
434
00:22:54,749 --> 00:22:58,503
produce nothing but bleating
excuses and disappointment!
435
00:23:00,213 --> 00:23:01,547
And know this.
436
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:04,717
Toil and task pulled
from effort of your Dominus
437
00:23:04,884 --> 00:23:07,428
shall see this house
to deserved position
438
00:23:07,595 --> 00:23:09,055
in the fucking games.
439
00:23:10,014 --> 00:23:11,516
And upon such day,
440
00:23:11,641 --> 00:23:14,727
you shall claim victory
against the House of Proculus,
441
00:23:15,770 --> 00:23:19,565
or I will see you all
to the fucking mines!
442
00:23:21,943 --> 00:23:23,277
[Ashur] Doctore.
443
00:23:25,113 --> 00:23:26,989
The marketplace appears
to disagree with you.
444
00:23:27,156 --> 00:23:28,783
Break good words
towards mind of Opiter
445
00:23:28,950 --> 00:23:31,953
so I may ram them
up Proculus' ass.
446
00:23:32,453 --> 00:23:35,331
The man seems moved to aid us.
447
00:23:35,498 --> 00:23:37,917
And how gauge you imagined
success upon venture?
448
00:23:38,084 --> 00:23:41,420
Opiter has proved
unexpectedly persuasive.
449
00:23:43,673 --> 00:23:44,799
[sniffs]
450
00:23:47,593 --> 00:23:51,305
After all these years
of blood and sacrifice...
451
00:23:51,931 --> 00:23:54,934
clawing to precipice
of honored position...
452
00:23:56,352 --> 00:23:59,689
only to stake future upon man
so slight of fucking note!
453
00:23:59,856 --> 00:24:04,152
Such specters often move where
men of more solid form cannot.
454
00:24:06,154 --> 00:24:08,364
[pensive music]
455
00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:17,957
What do eyes behold?
456
00:24:21,794 --> 00:24:23,963
A chamber, embracing void.
457
00:24:25,506 --> 00:24:27,216
Was not always so.
458
00:24:27,800 --> 00:24:31,387
Here once stood the champions
of the House of Batiatus.
459
00:24:32,638 --> 00:24:35,391
Visage and cock
captured in stone.
460
00:24:37,351 --> 00:24:41,647
Gannicus, Crixus,
the mad Thracian Spartacus,
461
00:24:42,273 --> 00:24:43,941
gods of the arena.
462
00:24:44,108 --> 00:24:46,110
[Ashur] Gods of the arena.
463
00:24:49,530 --> 00:24:51,199
My former Dominus
schemed his way
464
00:24:51,365 --> 00:24:53,117
from beneath mountains of shit
465
00:24:53,284 --> 00:24:56,454
to seize victory
upon their backs.
466
00:25:00,750 --> 00:25:02,585
Yet here stands Ashur...
467
00:25:03,669 --> 00:25:07,798
ever his better,
clutching air for thread...
468
00:25:09,133 --> 00:25:10,843
of fucking possibility.
469
00:25:10,968 --> 00:25:13,721
Then let us weave it
into tapestry of victory
470
00:25:13,888 --> 00:25:17,642
and show this fucking city
that we tower above all others.
471
00:25:18,059 --> 00:25:19,602
[Hilara] Dominus.
472
00:25:19,769 --> 00:25:22,855
Apologies. Another message has
been dispatched from Crassus.
473
00:25:23,022 --> 00:25:25,942
Ah. Does it clarify
hour of day of arrival?
474
00:25:26,108 --> 00:25:28,819
Not of person, but of baggage.
475
00:25:33,616 --> 00:25:34,867
Ha!
476
00:25:35,701 --> 00:25:37,912
He sends possessions in advance
477
00:25:38,079 --> 00:25:39,997
and commands me as
beast of fucking burden
478
00:25:40,164 --> 00:25:42,917
upon setting of morrow's sun!
479
00:25:43,417 --> 00:25:44,877
Labors more befitting a slave.
480
00:25:45,002 --> 00:25:47,880
As I yet stand
in his fucking eyes.
481
00:25:48,047 --> 00:25:50,466
A notion to be stricken
if we defy odds
482
00:25:50,633 --> 00:25:52,218
and see Achillia to victory.
483
00:25:52,385 --> 00:25:54,095
I shall reclaim
mantle borrowed by--
484
00:25:54,262 --> 00:25:55,179
No.
485
00:25:56,097 --> 00:25:58,099
Your absence was gravely
noted in the Albana
486
00:25:58,266 --> 00:25:59,517
by that shit Proculus.
487
00:25:59,684 --> 00:26:01,435
I would have you fall to my side
488
00:26:01,602 --> 00:26:05,481
and remain so attached in
event of future provocation.
489
00:26:07,275 --> 00:26:08,567
Your will,
490
00:26:09,235 --> 00:26:10,987
my fucking hands.
491
00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:14,490
[resolute music]
492
00:26:20,246 --> 00:26:22,623
[dramatic eastern music]
493
00:26:26,252 --> 00:26:28,129
[music swells]
494
00:26:28,296 --> 00:26:30,506
[grunting]
495
00:26:32,216 --> 00:26:34,510
[Achillia grunts]
496
00:26:36,262 --> 00:26:38,514
[introspective music]
497
00:26:44,770 --> 00:26:47,565
Eyes fall upon you
with thoughts of fucking.
498
00:26:50,985 --> 00:26:54,280
Well, she will find bitter
embrace within my arms.
499
00:26:54,655 --> 00:26:55,865
[chuckles]
500
00:27:00,411 --> 00:27:02,621
[whip lashes, cracks]
501
00:27:04,498 --> 00:27:06,167
[Celadus] Tarchon,
502
00:27:06,334 --> 00:27:08,627
Ephesius, Erato, take position.
503
00:27:10,296 --> 00:27:11,964
Achillia.
504
00:27:14,258 --> 00:27:16,552
[foreboding music]
505
00:27:30,483 --> 00:27:31,692
Begin.
506
00:27:35,071 --> 00:27:37,198
[Achillia screams aggressively]
507
00:27:37,365 --> 00:27:39,241
[yelps in pain, coughs]
508
00:27:39,408 --> 00:27:41,118
I will mourn your death
509
00:27:41,994 --> 00:27:45,915
at the little hands of
Satyrus and his brothers.
510
00:27:47,083 --> 00:27:48,376
[grunts aggressively]
511
00:27:48,542 --> 00:27:49,377
[crack]
512
00:27:51,212 --> 00:27:55,758
And see title of champion
fall to more deserving name.
513
00:27:57,635 --> 00:27:58,928
Focus effort.
514
00:27:59,804 --> 00:28:02,515
And you recall words
broken between us.
515
00:28:13,401 --> 00:28:16,278
[Achillia screams aggressively]
516
00:28:16,445 --> 00:28:18,697
[men grunt]
517
00:28:22,410 --> 00:28:25,454
[Achillia screams aggressively]
518
00:28:27,790 --> 00:28:31,127
[screams aggressively]
519
00:28:33,170 --> 00:28:35,131
[blades ring]
520
00:28:39,385 --> 00:28:42,179
[men laugh]
521
00:28:42,346 --> 00:28:45,015
[tense music slowly builds]
522
00:28:51,439 --> 00:28:53,732
[grunting]
523
00:28:55,484 --> 00:28:57,361
[screams aggressively]
524
00:28:57,528 --> 00:29:00,364
[music fades]
525
00:29:00,489 --> 00:29:02,825
[breathes heavily]
526
00:29:16,255 --> 00:29:17,798
Proper place
527
00:29:18,299 --> 00:29:20,134
for weakened animal.
528
00:29:22,386 --> 00:29:23,596
Good.
529
00:29:25,473 --> 00:29:29,226
Instruction towards victory
at last finds purchase.
530
00:29:30,895 --> 00:29:31,770
[grunts]
531
00:29:32,313 --> 00:29:33,772
[gate clangs loudly]
532
00:29:34,982 --> 00:29:36,859
That fucking woman
mocks this house.
533
00:29:37,943 --> 00:29:39,403
With her prowess?
534
00:29:40,488 --> 00:29:42,656
By elevation of
position not yet earned,
535
00:29:42,823 --> 00:29:45,784
by Dominus rewarding her with
the mark of the Brotherhood,
536
00:29:45,951 --> 00:29:48,037
absent proper fucking test.
537
00:29:48,204 --> 00:29:49,246
And...
538
00:29:50,789 --> 00:29:52,166
by shifting
a father's allegiance
539
00:29:52,333 --> 00:29:53,709
from its rightful place.
540
00:29:55,002 --> 00:29:56,337
All could hold truth,
541
00:29:56,462 --> 00:29:58,130
yet none negate poor
showing against Achillia.
542
00:29:58,297 --> 00:29:59,965
Erato and Ephesius
should have bested her.
543
00:30:00,132 --> 00:30:01,550
Yes. Perhaps they would have
544
00:30:01,717 --> 00:30:04,136
had you not foolishly pressed
your own advantage,
545
00:30:04,929 --> 00:30:07,348
a fault oft repeated.
546
00:30:08,557 --> 00:30:10,226
Are those the fucking
words you broke with her
547
00:30:10,392 --> 00:30:13,187
over yesterday's meal-
how to defeat your fucking son?
548
00:30:14,021 --> 00:30:17,983
In Korris' absence,
I stand Doctore.
549
00:30:18,943 --> 00:30:21,362
And words shared reflected such.
550
00:30:26,700 --> 00:30:28,827
You place her victory
above mine.
551
00:30:31,622 --> 00:30:35,751
I place the victory
of this fucking house...
552
00:30:36,961 --> 00:30:39,255
over all concerns.
553
00:30:43,175 --> 00:30:44,927
And even those of blood.
554
00:30:49,348 --> 00:30:51,642
Well,
does it stand so tenuous a bond?
555
00:31:00,526 --> 00:31:02,528
You are my son.
556
00:31:05,447 --> 00:31:07,283
I would see you
557
00:31:07,449 --> 00:31:09,577
rise above all others.
558
00:31:14,873 --> 00:31:17,167
And I will honor you...
559
00:31:19,545 --> 00:31:22,172
when my time comes in the arena.
560
00:31:23,716 --> 00:31:24,883
First,
561
00:31:25,009 --> 00:31:26,635
you honor self...
562
00:31:27,428 --> 00:31:29,305
with thoughtful strategy.
563
00:31:33,642 --> 00:31:35,352
I fight as I was taught-
564
00:31:36,478 --> 00:31:37,896
by my father.
565
00:31:38,731 --> 00:31:40,983
[somber music]
566
00:31:42,651 --> 00:31:44,570
Then the failure is mine.
567
00:31:45,696 --> 00:31:48,115
[somber music continues]
568
00:31:51,660 --> 00:31:54,663
May you find a more willing
student in the fucking Nubian.
569
00:31:54,830 --> 00:31:57,249
- Look, son-
- [yells aggressively]
570
00:31:58,667 --> 00:32:00,919
[dramatic music]
571
00:32:02,713 --> 00:32:06,050
Again, you lash out,
absent thought of consequence.
572
00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,470
And yet you froth
573
00:32:09,637 --> 00:32:12,139
over how a woman bested you.
574
00:32:16,810 --> 00:32:19,021
[gate slams]
575
00:32:20,814 --> 00:32:23,025
[birds chirp]
576
00:32:24,943 --> 00:32:26,654
Place game aside
and gather yourself.
577
00:32:26,820 --> 00:32:28,364
I would have you accompany me.
578
00:32:29,114 --> 00:32:29,990
Where?
579
00:32:30,157 --> 00:32:31,367
Where honored mother commands.
580
00:32:31,533 --> 00:32:33,827
If passions lie
beyond these walls,
581
00:32:33,994 --> 00:32:35,996
I fear I stand
not your reflection.
582
00:32:36,789 --> 00:32:38,874
[Cossutia] Are we so opposed,
you and I?
583
00:32:39,333 --> 00:32:42,628
When you were yet a child,
we were of one heart and mind.
584
00:32:42,795 --> 00:32:44,505
I'm far removed
from the youth I was.
585
00:32:44,672 --> 00:32:48,509
Yet here I stand, willing
to embrace you as such.
586
00:32:51,804 --> 00:32:52,971
Apologies.
587
00:32:54,556 --> 00:32:56,100
I am not myself.
588
00:32:58,018 --> 00:33:00,896
And have not been
so for too long a time.
589
00:33:01,647 --> 00:33:04,566
Life has been unkind
in its offering.
590
00:33:04,692 --> 00:33:06,652
It is but oscillation
591
00:33:06,777 --> 00:33:09,446
between joy and despair.
592
00:33:09,613 --> 00:33:13,784
Each new day presents
fresh choice between them.
593
00:33:14,118 --> 00:33:15,494
What is choice
594
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:17,621
when fate has final say,
595
00:33:17,788 --> 00:33:21,041
often leaving but fractured
remnants in its wake?
596
00:33:21,166 --> 00:33:22,418
You yet breathe.
597
00:33:22,876 --> 00:33:25,462
And I thank the gods it is so.
598
00:33:26,255 --> 00:33:28,924
I would have you return
to the happy child
599
00:33:29,049 --> 00:33:32,678
that so brightened this house...
600
00:33:32,845 --> 00:33:35,055
and world beyond.
601
00:33:36,098 --> 00:33:37,891
And if it holds
nothing but shadow?
602
00:33:38,058 --> 00:33:40,102
We cannot halt
setting of the sun,
603
00:33:40,269 --> 00:33:43,731
yet perhaps together,
we may ignite torch
604
00:33:43,897 --> 00:33:45,733
to guide our way
605
00:33:45,899 --> 00:33:47,735
from darkness.
606
00:33:49,570 --> 00:33:51,780
I promised Father
a game of Latrunculi.
607
00:33:52,364 --> 00:33:54,533
Game shall greet you
upon return.
608
00:33:55,159 --> 00:33:59,246
Opiter whispers that Spurius
the trader receives...
609
00:33:59,621 --> 00:34:01,415
Egyptian linen.
610
00:34:01,999 --> 00:34:04,710
How I would see us
draped in fineries
611
00:34:04,877 --> 00:34:06,086
befitting mother
612
00:34:06,211 --> 00:34:09,089
and radiant daughter.
613
00:34:13,552 --> 00:34:15,304
Then let us to market.
614
00:34:16,013 --> 00:34:17,014
Together.
615
00:34:18,389 --> 00:34:20,684
[indistinct chatter]
616
00:34:20,851 --> 00:34:23,687
[droning flute music plays]
617
00:34:23,853 --> 00:34:24,646
Oh!
618
00:34:25,438 --> 00:34:28,065
The sun threatens to
bake senses to oblivion.
619
00:34:28,525 --> 00:34:30,860
Should we pause
and fall to shade?
620
00:34:31,277 --> 00:34:33,362
I find it comforting upon skin.
621
00:34:34,864 --> 00:34:36,867
It lifts heart to
see you resurrected
622
00:34:37,034 --> 00:34:38,786
among the living, Viridia.
623
00:34:39,578 --> 00:34:41,121
[gasps] Look.
624
00:34:41,288 --> 00:34:43,456
Tertius graces presence.
625
00:34:44,291 --> 00:34:47,335
Where stands his wife?
The name escapes me.
626
00:34:47,503 --> 00:34:49,545
A woman of tenuous impression,
627
00:34:49,713 --> 00:34:52,424
recently called to the
shores of the afterlife.
628
00:34:52,591 --> 00:34:55,969
Poor man.
A loss most keenly felt.
629
00:34:56,386 --> 00:34:58,764
[scoffs] There stood
no love between them.
630
00:34:59,139 --> 00:35:00,224
Only advantage of marriage,
631
00:35:00,390 --> 00:35:02,100
strengthening
respective families.
632
00:35:02,643 --> 00:35:05,187
He does cut a form, does he not?
633
00:35:05,938 --> 00:35:08,357
Any woman would be blessed
to call him husband.
634
00:35:08,524 --> 00:35:09,858
Perhaps we should pay respect
635
00:35:10,025 --> 00:35:12,569
and offer what comfort
may be afforded.
636
00:35:13,403 --> 00:35:15,489
The heat is a living thing,
is it not?
637
00:35:16,156 --> 00:35:18,867
I would lay eyes upon Egyptian
linen so breathlessly promised,
638
00:35:19,284 --> 00:35:21,370
lest it evaporate in
advance of purchase.
639
00:35:22,663 --> 00:35:24,456
Let us fall to purpose, then,
640
00:35:24,623 --> 00:35:28,335
and consider words with Tertius
at later convenience.
641
00:35:32,631 --> 00:35:34,007
Discharged upon whim,
642
00:35:34,174 --> 00:35:36,885
absent concern towards
obligation claimed my own.
643
00:35:37,469 --> 00:35:40,013
Crassus yanks his leash
and expect obedient cur
644
00:35:40,180 --> 00:35:42,391
to fall to fucking heel.
645
00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:47,771
Does voice offend,
646
00:35:48,313 --> 00:35:50,524
or do thoughts wander astray
from fucking consideration?
647
00:35:50,691 --> 00:35:52,609
I care not for eyes upon us.
648
00:35:53,986 --> 00:35:56,280
[uneasy music]
649
00:36:02,244 --> 00:36:05,581
Let us attend demanded
undertaking and return to villa.
650
00:36:06,415 --> 00:36:08,375
Absent fucking incident.
651
00:36:19,469 --> 00:36:21,054
[chest thuds]
652
00:36:21,847 --> 00:36:23,181
Is this the sum of it,
653
00:36:23,765 --> 00:36:25,392
or does the man
seek to transport
654
00:36:25,559 --> 00:36:27,603
all of fucking Rome
as well?
655
00:36:28,186 --> 00:36:30,439
What eyes lay upon is all
I have been charged to deliver.
656
00:36:30,564 --> 00:36:33,817
Then our business concludes.
Fall from fucking sight.
657
00:36:34,651 --> 00:36:36,153
I would see us
removed from the street
658
00:36:36,278 --> 00:36:38,280
in advance of
encroaching night.
659
00:36:39,907 --> 00:36:41,533
You yet have more
words to break,
660
00:36:41,700 --> 00:36:45,037
or do you stand dumbstruck
by glorious form before you?
661
00:36:45,203 --> 00:36:48,999
Apologies. I was instructed
payment would be due upon...
662
00:36:49,124 --> 00:36:50,292
receipt.
663
00:36:52,294 --> 00:36:55,672
[clears throat]
And, uh...what is the sum?
664
00:36:55,797 --> 00:36:57,341
30 denarii.
665
00:36:59,217 --> 00:37:00,636
30 denarii.
666
00:37:01,929 --> 00:37:04,139
[coins jingle]
667
00:37:04,306 --> 00:37:06,600
Purse stands shy
of required sum.
668
00:37:06,767 --> 00:37:09,686
Send notice for balance,
and I shall see you satisfied.
669
00:37:09,853 --> 00:37:11,188
Upon what day?
670
00:37:12,606 --> 00:37:14,691
Of my fucking choosing.
671
00:37:15,609 --> 00:37:20,739
Press matter and find yourself
forever absent of need...
672
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:22,866
of coin.
673
00:37:23,241 --> 00:37:24,868
At your leisure, then.
674
00:37:28,246 --> 00:37:31,041
Crassus stands richest man
in fucking Republic,
675
00:37:31,750 --> 00:37:34,044
yet it falls upon this house
to see debt paid.
676
00:37:34,211 --> 00:37:37,172
How do you hold the man
became so swollen with wealth?
677
00:37:37,297 --> 00:37:40,634
By shrewdly using the coin of
others in place of his own.
678
00:37:41,510 --> 00:37:43,345
A thing to aspire to.
679
00:37:44,596 --> 00:37:46,556
Pay mind towards footing!
680
00:37:48,100 --> 00:37:51,311
Injury to valued burden
will be visited tenfold
681
00:37:51,478 --> 00:37:53,939
upon those accountable.
682
00:37:55,107 --> 00:37:57,609
[eerie, mysterious music]
683
00:38:02,114 --> 00:38:03,740
[Messia] Retrieve more water.
684
00:38:03,907 --> 00:38:06,702
I would see pool filled before
our Dominus returns,
685
00:38:07,494 --> 00:38:10,163
or brave ill humor
so often unleashed.
686
00:38:11,415 --> 00:38:14,918
His mood is but reflective
of forces brought to bear.
687
00:38:15,335 --> 00:38:17,170
You must not hold
such against him.
688
00:38:17,337 --> 00:38:18,964
I shall do as commanded.
689
00:38:19,548 --> 00:38:21,800
You are not to speak
to me in such manner.
690
00:38:21,967 --> 00:38:23,051
Apologies...
691
00:38:23,593 --> 00:38:25,679
for breaking unwanted words.
692
00:38:28,056 --> 00:38:30,809
Messia, what would
you have me do?
693
00:38:30,976 --> 00:38:33,145
I cannot return feelings
I do not hold.
694
00:38:33,270 --> 00:38:35,230
I wish to the gods
I could reverse sun
695
00:38:35,397 --> 00:38:37,149
and see them unspoken.
696
00:38:38,191 --> 00:38:40,360
I do not mean to be unkind.
697
00:38:40,527 --> 00:38:41,361
Nor I.
698
00:38:41,737 --> 00:38:43,530
Yet I do not know how to be
699
00:38:44,573 --> 00:38:47,617
when presented each day
with that which I desire
700
00:38:48,076 --> 00:38:49,536
yet cannot have.
701
00:38:51,204 --> 00:38:54,458
[wistful music]
702
00:38:58,170 --> 00:39:00,422
[grunts]
703
00:39:02,215 --> 00:39:04,509
[intense music slows]
704
00:39:06,553 --> 00:39:07,929
[Ephesius] Your attention
wanders, brother.
705
00:39:08,096 --> 00:39:10,140
[Tarchon] Towards vexing cause.
706
00:39:16,813 --> 00:39:19,316
You take well to
style of dimachaerus.
707
00:39:20,150 --> 00:39:21,318
I never favored it.
708
00:39:22,069 --> 00:39:24,738
You stand too vulnerable
absent shield.
709
00:39:25,739 --> 00:39:26,948
Yours offered little protection
710
00:39:27,115 --> 00:39:28,867
when I sent you
to fucking ground.
711
00:39:29,493 --> 00:39:32,746
Do not ascribe to skill
what lies in fault of another.
712
00:39:34,039 --> 00:39:36,833
More careful thought
will greet you next we meet.
713
00:39:39,461 --> 00:39:42,422
Strategy counselled
by one more experienced?
714
00:39:44,299 --> 00:39:46,510
[dramatic tone]
715
00:39:46,885 --> 00:39:48,011
Yes, good.
716
00:39:49,429 --> 00:39:50,847
It is a heavy thing,
717
00:39:51,348 --> 00:39:53,975
living beneath
shadow of noble father.
718
00:39:56,770 --> 00:40:00,107
- I live in no man's shadow.
- Only a woman's, then?
719
00:40:04,361 --> 00:40:06,154
[solemn music]
720
00:40:06,321 --> 00:40:07,531
Upon a day,
721
00:40:08,365 --> 00:40:09,407
Nubian.
722
00:40:11,159 --> 00:40:12,869
Upon a fucking day.
723
00:40:14,538 --> 00:40:15,539
[Tarchon] Ephesius!
724
00:40:16,373 --> 00:40:18,625
Let us fall to
proper fucking contest!
725
00:40:19,334 --> 00:40:21,586
[both grunt]
726
00:40:29,219 --> 00:40:30,262
[chuckles]
727
00:40:31,346 --> 00:40:32,639
Oh, no.
728
00:40:33,348 --> 00:40:35,642
How favor you...
729
00:40:36,518 --> 00:40:37,894
- Oh!
- ...this one?
730
00:40:38,019 --> 00:40:39,563
[Horatia] A gift from the gods.
731
00:40:39,688 --> 00:40:41,189
I've never felt its equal.
732
00:40:41,356 --> 00:40:43,608
[merchant] I have yet more
to offer one so luminous.
733
00:40:43,733 --> 00:40:45,318
[Cossutia] We are going
to fashion the finest stola
734
00:40:45,485 --> 00:40:48,196
this city has ever beheld...
735
00:40:48,363 --> 00:40:52,534
in anticipation of
your father's games.
736
00:40:53,410 --> 00:40:54,703
The games?
737
00:40:54,870 --> 00:40:57,164
Entering the pulvinus
draped in such finery
738
00:40:57,330 --> 00:40:59,374
shall precipitate absolute riot.
739
00:40:59,541 --> 00:41:03,003
- I will not be in attendance.
- Your father expects it so.
740
00:41:03,753 --> 00:41:05,505
A desire I have not heard
expressed from his lips.
741
00:41:05,672 --> 00:41:07,174
You must come, Viridia.
742
00:41:07,340 --> 00:41:10,010
You have been too long removed
from eyes of adoring public-
743
00:41:10,135 --> 00:41:12,012
[man grunts, blood splatters]
744
00:41:15,265 --> 00:41:16,308
[Cossutia] Guards!
745
00:41:16,474 --> 00:41:17,726
[woman screams]
746
00:41:17,893 --> 00:41:19,477
[guard screams aggressively,
blades clang]
747
00:41:19,603 --> 00:41:20,770
We must go!
748
00:41:20,937 --> 00:41:25,525
[men grunt, blades clang]
749
00:41:25,692 --> 00:41:28,695
-[guard] This way, come.
-[panicked screaming]
750
00:41:29,446 --> 00:41:31,698
[tense music]
751
00:41:32,407 --> 00:41:33,408
[men grunt]
752
00:41:33,575 --> 00:41:35,702
[blade rings, blood splatters]
753
00:41:35,827 --> 00:41:37,746
[panicked screaming]
754
00:41:37,913 --> 00:41:38,997
Seize them!
755
00:41:40,498 --> 00:41:41,458
[grunts]
756
00:41:41,625 --> 00:41:44,252
[panicked screaming continues]
757
00:41:44,377 --> 00:41:47,672
[distorted screaming]
758
00:41:53,303 --> 00:41:55,222
- [man grunts]
- [Viridia screams]
759
00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:00,143
Viridia!
760
00:42:02,437 --> 00:42:04,898
[ominous pulsating music]
761
00:42:07,943 --> 00:42:09,236
Why do you fall upon us?
762
00:42:09,402 --> 00:42:11,321
Pose question to noble husband.
[laughs]
763
00:42:11,988 --> 00:42:14,783
- Argh!
- [grunts]
764
00:42:15,742 --> 00:42:18,036
[laughs mockingly, grunts]
765
00:42:18,870 --> 00:42:20,080
Mother!
766
00:42:20,247 --> 00:42:22,499
We need but one.
Part her from fucking life.
767
00:42:25,460 --> 00:42:27,754
[breathes heavily]
768
00:42:28,505 --> 00:42:30,006
Fucking cunts!
769
00:42:31,007 --> 00:42:33,343
[Viridia yells]
770
00:42:33,927 --> 00:42:37,264
[Ashur grunts aggressively,
blades clang]
771
00:42:38,473 --> 00:42:40,350
[tense music]
772
00:42:40,517 --> 00:42:42,852
[men grunt, blades clang]
773
00:42:44,479 --> 00:42:46,773
[tense music continues]
774
00:42:50,652 --> 00:42:54,489
[blade rings, flesh squelches,
blood-curdling scream]
775
00:42:56,032 --> 00:42:57,909
[blade rings, blood splatters]
776
00:42:58,493 --> 00:43:01,288
[ominous music slowly builds]

778
00:43:07,460 --> 00:43:09,796
[dark momentous music]
779
00:43:11,298 --> 00:43:12,424
[blades clang]
780
00:43:12,590 --> 00:43:13,925
Keep moving, you fucking bitch,
781
00:43:14,092 --> 00:43:16,094
or I shall have
your fucking blood!
782
00:43:16,636 --> 00:43:18,722
- [crunch!]
- Argh!
783
00:43:20,557 --> 00:43:22,142
[grunts]
784
00:43:22,434 --> 00:43:23,643
Argh!
785
00:43:25,186 --> 00:43:26,229
[screams]
786
00:43:26,396 --> 00:43:28,523
[flesh squelches, blood drips]
787
00:43:28,648 --> 00:43:31,818
[breathes heavily]

[grunts aggressively]
796
00:44:11,608 --> 00:44:13,151
[man grunts in pain]
797
00:44:13,276 --> 00:44:14,861
[bone crunches]
798
00:44:17,364 --> 00:44:18,573
Behind you!
799
00:44:18,740 --> 00:44:22,077
[heroic music continues]
800
00:44:23,244 --> 00:44:26,081
[blades ring, blood splatters]
801
00:44:29,584 --> 00:44:31,961
[men grunt, blades clang]

00:44:37,842 --> 00:44:39,302
[blade rings, blood splatters]
804
00:44:40,512 --> 00:44:44,182
[tense, momentous music
slowly builds]
805
00:44:49,896 --> 00:44:50,939
[Cossutia shrieks]
806
00:44:51,106 --> 00:44:52,065
[blade rings, flesh thuds]
807
00:44:52,232 --> 00:44:54,317
[blood-curdling scream]
808
00:44:55,735 --> 00:44:57,987
[heroic music]
809
00:44:58,696 --> 00:45:01,032
[music fades]
810
00:45:01,741 --> 00:45:02,992
[distant screaming]
811
00:45:03,159 --> 00:45:04,828
[Cossutia sobs]

[men grunt, blades clang]
813
00:45:19,175 --> 00:45:20,552
[flesh squelches]
814
00:45:20,718 --> 00:45:22,720
[screams chillingly]
815
00:45:31,771 --> 00:45:33,982
[heroic music]
816
00:45:36,693 --> 00:45:39,612
[blade rings, blood splatters]
817
00:45:39,779 --> 00:45:42,490
[gasps breathlessly, groans]
818
00:45:52,083 --> 00:45:53,042
[exhales sharply]
819
00:45:53,168 --> 00:45:57,213
[soft, assured music]
820
00:45:57,380 --> 00:45:59,007
You are safe now.
821
00:46:05,096 --> 00:46:06,639
[Viridia inhales shakily]
822
00:46:06,764 --> 00:46:07,891
You're hurt.
823
00:46:08,391 --> 00:46:10,727
I would welcome
a thousand such wounds
824
00:46:11,352 --> 00:46:12,645
if earning of them
825
00:46:13,229 --> 00:46:14,981
yet saw you grace this world.
826
00:46:16,024 --> 00:46:19,652
Nor would I have you fall
from it, my life the cause.
827
00:46:23,239 --> 00:46:25,033
[winces]
828
00:46:28,703 --> 00:46:30,121
[Cossutia] Viridia!
829
00:46:31,539 --> 00:46:33,041
[gasps] Mother!
830
00:46:33,166 --> 00:46:36,127
I thought you dead! [sobs]
831
00:46:38,505 --> 00:46:39,839
Such would have held true,
832
00:46:40,006 --> 00:46:42,467
had Ashur and his man
not chanced upon us.
833
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,054
[Cossutia sobs]
834
00:46:49,849 --> 00:46:50,767
Ashur.
835
00:46:50,892 --> 00:46:52,519
[Viridia] Who are these men?
836
00:46:57,524 --> 00:46:58,900
Cilicians.
837
00:47:01,694 --> 00:47:04,739
We must return you
to your villa, quickly.
838
00:47:06,741 --> 00:47:10,411
[Gabinius] Pirates?
Here within city walls?
839
00:47:10,745 --> 00:47:12,914
So far removed from fucking sea?
840
00:47:13,081 --> 00:47:16,125
They grow bold, absent
proper response from Rome.
841
00:47:17,335 --> 00:47:21,047
Oh, thank the gods you did
not fall to rancorous harm.
842
00:47:21,214 --> 00:47:22,882
[Viridia]
They held no divinity in it.
843
00:47:23,049 --> 00:47:26,010
Ashur and his man delivered
us from untimely fate.
844
00:47:26,928 --> 00:47:30,390
[sobs] Would that Horatia
stood as fortunate.
845
00:47:31,057 --> 00:47:32,392
The Aedile's wife?
846
00:47:32,684 --> 00:47:33,601
Slain?
847
00:47:34,519 --> 00:47:37,814
In the streets, whilst sun
yet graced fucking sky?
848
00:47:37,939 --> 00:47:40,942
Wife and daughter stood
apparent bounty sought.
849
00:47:41,359 --> 00:47:43,861
Towards ransom,
one would suspect.
850
00:47:44,028 --> 00:47:47,031
An outrage that shall
be answered in blood.
851
00:47:47,198 --> 00:47:49,284
I fear it has
already been drawn.
852
00:47:49,450 --> 00:47:51,619
He suffered injury
in the exchange,
853
00:47:51,786 --> 00:47:53,621
no thought given to
safety beyond our own.
854
00:47:53,788 --> 00:47:55,623
He shall be properly attended.
855
00:47:56,207 --> 00:48:00,503
See yourselves to bath and wine,
to calm inflamed nerves.
856
00:48:02,255 --> 00:48:03,548
Once more,
857
00:48:03,965 --> 00:48:05,800
tongue bends towards gratitude.
858
00:48:05,967 --> 00:48:07,468
Unnecessary.
859
00:48:08,386 --> 00:48:10,179
Yet gratefully received.
860
00:48:11,389 --> 00:48:14,058
[Cossutia] I thank the gods
you were present...
861
00:48:15,059 --> 00:48:18,813
and had not succumbed
to rumor of previous wounds.
862
00:48:19,772 --> 00:48:22,275
I but stood as any man of
means and skill would have-
863
00:48:22,859 --> 00:48:24,319
to protect the Republic.
864
00:48:27,447 --> 00:48:29,073
[Gabinius] Fall to the baths.
865
00:48:29,240 --> 00:48:32,952
I would break words with
the Syrian in private.
866
00:48:33,786 --> 00:48:36,122
I shall attend
to Crassus' shipment.
867
00:48:39,375 --> 00:48:40,501
Crassus?
868
00:48:40,668 --> 00:48:42,795
We prepare for
his imminent arrival.
869
00:48:43,254 --> 00:48:45,006
He disengages from
his army in Rome,
870
00:48:45,173 --> 00:48:46,674
so entrenched
outside its gates?
871
00:48:46,841 --> 00:48:50,136
Such is message recently
dispatched into my hands.
872
00:48:50,928 --> 00:48:52,805
More than can be said of Pompey.
873
00:48:54,098 --> 00:48:57,685
He remains unmoved by request
to unset from opposing perch
874
00:48:57,852 --> 00:49:00,188
and quell these
Cilician cutthroats.
875
00:49:00,313 --> 00:49:03,775
Perhaps loss of untold men
in failed attempt
876
00:49:04,150 --> 00:49:05,568
may give them pause.
877
00:49:06,152 --> 00:49:08,988
Or they shall see
efforts redoubled
878
00:49:09,113 --> 00:49:11,491
at expense heart
can ill afford.
879
00:49:11,658 --> 00:49:14,452
We must remain vigilant
against such possibility.
880
00:49:15,536 --> 00:49:18,539
Beloved daughter broke
words carrying truth.
881
00:49:19,791 --> 00:49:21,918
Gratitude is owed.
882
00:49:23,169 --> 00:49:26,172
As is reward
rising to level of deed.
883
00:49:26,964 --> 00:49:29,217
[insects chirp]
884
00:49:30,385 --> 00:49:33,554
Your... noble daughter
yet among the living
885
00:49:33,721 --> 00:49:35,890
presents reward beyond measure.
886
00:49:36,057 --> 00:49:39,143
A debt unpaid promises
future expense.
887
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,979
Often many times original sum.
888
00:49:42,855 --> 00:49:46,234
It is well known by all blessed
with sense of fucking hearing
889
00:49:46,984 --> 00:49:49,112
that you desire entry
to approaching games
890
00:49:49,237 --> 00:49:50,947
of the Ludi Apollinares.
891
00:49:51,322 --> 00:49:53,700
Thoughts occasionally
turn upon subject.
892
00:49:53,825 --> 00:49:57,328
Then cease the churning of them.
I shall see you well positioned.
893
00:50:00,039 --> 00:50:01,833
[chuckles softly]
894
00:50:02,542 --> 00:50:03,501
I...
895
00:50:05,670 --> 00:50:07,338
I do not possess words.
896
00:50:07,505 --> 00:50:09,507
Do not misconceive intent.
897
00:50:09,674 --> 00:50:11,342
I but erase debt,
898
00:50:11,467 --> 00:50:13,511
one I would not see
plied against me
899
00:50:13,678 --> 00:50:16,180
upon inconvenient moment.
900
00:50:16,347 --> 00:50:17,306
Ah.
901
00:50:17,724 --> 00:50:20,768
Then we stand balanced,
in all regards.
902
00:50:21,853 --> 00:50:23,896
Come. I shall have my medicus
attend your wounds.
903
00:50:24,063 --> 00:50:25,398
Oh, a burden I will not impose.
904
00:50:25,565 --> 00:50:27,817
My own shall see to
unconcerning wounds.
905
00:50:27,942 --> 00:50:30,361
I assure you mine stands
of greater skill.
906
00:50:30,486 --> 00:50:32,405
Of that I hold no question.
907
00:50:32,905 --> 00:50:36,409
Yet I prefer not
to stand in your debt.
908
00:50:37,952 --> 00:50:39,245
[chuckles softly]
909
00:50:39,412 --> 00:50:41,330
You learn quickly, Syrian.
910
00:50:42,123 --> 00:50:43,374
Very well.
911
00:50:43,875 --> 00:50:46,169
Let us part ways equally...
912
00:50:46,711 --> 00:50:48,129
untethered.
913
00:50:53,259 --> 00:50:54,969
[exhales deeply]
914
00:51:00,099 --> 00:51:03,603
You left Dominus at Gabinius'
villa, to return alone?
915
00:51:03,770 --> 00:51:05,646
Ashur proves himself capable.
916
00:51:05,813 --> 00:51:07,440
Those who underestimate him
917
00:51:07,607 --> 00:51:09,317
do so at their
own fucking peril.
918
00:51:09,484 --> 00:51:10,860
I would still see guards
dispatched.
919
00:51:11,027 --> 00:51:14,113
Place concerns aside.
The man himself appears.
920
00:51:15,406 --> 00:51:16,449
Dominus.
921
00:51:17,700 --> 00:51:20,870
- Fetch the medicus, quickly!
- Oh, fuck medicus!
922
00:51:21,370 --> 00:51:25,833
I will bathe hard-fought wound
in a river of fucking wine.
923
00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:28,461
Gabinius breaks words
towards such elated mood?
924
00:51:28,628 --> 00:51:32,340
He breaks words that
shall elevate this house.
925
00:51:32,924 --> 00:51:35,134
We stand blessed
with position...
926
00:51:35,885 --> 00:51:37,887
in his fucking games.
927
00:51:41,599 --> 00:51:44,435
And you. [chuckles excitedly]
928
00:51:44,560 --> 00:51:46,562
You fucking titan!
929
00:51:47,647 --> 00:51:51,150
Your part in this shall not soon
fall to discarded remembrance.
930
00:51:51,943 --> 00:51:54,237
Wine! Where is
the fucking wine?
931
00:51:54,403 --> 00:51:56,113
How did you broach
subject with Gabinius?
932
00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:57,573
A thing not required.
933
00:51:57,740 --> 00:52:00,284
He offered unprompted
reward towards rescue
934
00:52:00,451 --> 00:52:02,411
of beloved wife and daughter.
935
00:52:02,537 --> 00:52:04,997
And you maneuvered such
towards advantage in the arena?
936
00:52:05,164 --> 00:52:06,582
I maneuvered nothing.
937
00:52:07,625 --> 00:52:10,711
Tongue threatened to leap from
mouth at the thought, but...
938
00:52:11,295 --> 00:52:13,381
heart held it fast in place.
939
00:52:13,881 --> 00:52:16,050
Viridia's life spared
stood reward enough
940
00:52:16,217 --> 00:52:19,220
to consume all desire.
941
00:52:20,638 --> 00:52:25,476
The gods I hold no faith
in favored humble Ashur.
942
00:52:27,687 --> 00:52:32,650
And you as well, with
unwanted task now removed.
943
00:52:33,860 --> 00:52:34,861
Task?
944
00:52:35,278 --> 00:52:36,529
Lowering yourself to
imagined affection
945
00:52:36,696 --> 00:52:39,740
to gain Opiter's aid
towards the games.
946
00:52:40,867 --> 00:52:44,579
That preening little shit
no longer stands of use.
947
00:52:45,162 --> 00:52:48,875
It is a relief not to be
forced into his company.
948
00:52:50,835 --> 00:52:53,170
See all within this ludus
to formation.
949
00:52:53,921 --> 00:52:56,090
And let us
present glorious news
950
00:52:56,382 --> 00:52:57,675
of fucking
951
00:52:57,842 --> 00:53:00,011
-ascension!
-[cup shatters]
952
00:53:05,391 --> 00:53:07,643
[dramatic music]
953
00:53:15,776 --> 00:53:18,613
You expect burning gaze
to set her aflame?
954
00:53:19,906 --> 00:53:21,657
If I were so fortunate,
955
00:53:22,742 --> 00:53:25,870
surely my father would rush
to extinguish blaze.
956
00:53:32,251 --> 00:53:33,878
This house has given rise
957
00:53:34,045 --> 00:53:37,673
to storied champions
of lore and legends.
958
00:53:38,716 --> 00:53:41,260
Yet all who have
come before shall pale
959
00:53:41,427 --> 00:53:44,555
against what I have fought
with blood and bone
960
00:53:44,722 --> 00:53:46,933
to see opportunity presented.
961
00:53:48,184 --> 00:53:50,645
And such have been secured.
962
00:53:51,687 --> 00:53:55,858
We have gained position in the
games of the Ludi Apollinares!
963
00:53:56,025 --> 00:53:58,611
[all cheer]
964
00:53:59,570 --> 00:54:00,947
And who shall grace
the sands, Dominus?
965
00:54:01,113 --> 00:54:03,324
- Tarchon, hold tongue.
- [scattered laughter]
966
00:54:04,075 --> 00:54:07,662
The boy is overcome by visions
of glory. [chuckles]
967
00:54:08,412 --> 00:54:10,831
Positions and placements
have yet to be broached.
968
00:54:10,957 --> 00:54:12,208
Yet know this.
969
00:54:12,583 --> 00:54:15,294
We shall see the Brothers Ferox
to fucking grass
970
00:54:15,461 --> 00:54:18,756
for offense presented
by the shit Proculus,
971
00:54:19,090 --> 00:54:20,174
by the hands
972
00:54:20,549 --> 00:54:22,802
of the goddess of fucking death.
973
00:54:24,428 --> 00:54:26,681
[momentous music]
974
00:54:28,140 --> 00:54:31,477
Fall to your beds and gather
strength for coming days.
975
00:54:31,644 --> 00:54:34,313
I will announce those among
you who are for the arena-
976
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:35,398
Dominus.
977
00:54:35,982 --> 00:54:38,609
Procession has been spotted
upon road towards villa.
978
00:54:39,902 --> 00:54:42,321
[laughs excitedly]
979
00:54:44,448 --> 00:54:47,284
Our patron, Crassus,
at last arrives.
980
00:54:47,451 --> 00:54:49,036
Let him stand in awe
981
00:54:49,203 --> 00:54:53,249
at the fearsome offering of
the House of fucking Ashur!
982
00:54:53,416 --> 00:54:56,752
[all cheer]
983
00:54:59,839 --> 00:55:02,341
Doctore, fall to my side
984
00:55:02,508 --> 00:55:05,970
and let us greet destiny
with worthy embrace.
985
00:55:06,137 --> 00:55:09,306
[all cheer]
986
00:55:09,473 --> 00:55:12,476
[momentous music]
987
00:55:15,521 --> 00:55:16,856
[insects chirp]
988
00:55:17,023 --> 00:55:18,983
Do robes fall in manner
matter pleasing to eye?
989
00:55:19,108 --> 00:55:20,401
You intend to welcome the man
990
00:55:20,526 --> 00:55:22,737
or present your arse
for his pleasure?
991
00:55:23,863 --> 00:55:26,490
- [horn blares]
- His wagon arrives.
992
00:55:27,074 --> 00:55:28,159
Straighten backs.
993
00:55:28,534 --> 00:55:29,952
Assume pleasant disposition,
994
00:55:30,077 --> 00:55:32,621
yet cast gaze downwards
to avoid catching eye.
995
00:55:34,540 --> 00:55:36,792
[expectant music]
996
00:55:39,545 --> 00:55:41,964
[horse whinnies, reins jangle]
997
00:55:42,673 --> 00:55:45,801
[regal music]
998
00:55:48,054 --> 00:55:49,472
Whoa!
999
00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:54,643
Korris, three steps
lingering a pace.
1000
00:55:56,062 --> 00:55:58,773
[exhales deeply, clears throat]
1001
00:56:06,197 --> 00:56:09,742
[fanfare music]
1002
00:56:10,159 --> 00:56:12,161
[footsteps approach]
1003
00:56:12,328 --> 00:56:16,248
[momentous, thumping music]
1004
00:56:19,168 --> 00:56:22,797
Mighty Crassus, you honor
us with your noble presence.
1005
00:56:23,506 --> 00:56:25,508
You mistake me, Syrian.
1006
00:56:28,344 --> 00:56:29,637
Caesar.
1007
00:56:29,804 --> 00:56:32,932
[bright, dramatic music]
