Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:15,479 --> 00:00:17,982
[thunder rumbles]
2
00:00:18,149 --> 00:00:21,986
- [groans]
- You stand not yourself.
3
00:00:22,403 --> 00:00:24,697
Argh!
4
00:00:24,864 --> 00:00:26,031
[grunts]
5
00:00:26,407 --> 00:00:28,451
[screaming]
6
00:00:28,617 --> 00:00:31,162
It lifts spirits to
see you rise again.
7
00:00:31,328 --> 00:00:32,705
Tarchon assumes mantle
8
00:00:32,830 --> 00:00:35,416
until such time you
are able to reclaim it.
9
00:00:36,250 --> 00:00:37,501
[Tarchon roars]
10
00:00:37,668 --> 00:00:39,754
[Achillia]
I would take up fucking spear.
11
00:00:40,337 --> 00:00:42,298
What fucking hand
laid marks upon you?
12
00:00:42,673 --> 00:00:43,883
The fat one.
13
00:00:44,049 --> 00:00:46,260
Petition for seat towards
very front next I fight.
14
00:00:46,427 --> 00:00:49,054
And I will give him spectacle
not soon forgotten.
15
00:00:49,472 --> 00:00:52,141
I would have my
name upon your lips.
16
00:00:52,308 --> 00:00:54,894
-Ashur!
-[moaning]
17
00:00:55,561 --> 00:00:58,731
[Ashur]
And know that my heart is yours.
18
00:00:59,732 --> 00:01:03,027
-You tainted fucking wine?
- [giggles]
19
00:01:03,194 --> 00:01:05,905
Opiter's holdings fall
to the house of Proculus.
20
00:01:06,071 --> 00:01:07,782
[Ashur]
The fate Opiter feared.
21
00:01:07,948 --> 00:01:09,575
He feared Cilician assault?
22
00:01:09,742 --> 00:01:11,118
- No.
- Whose, then?
23
00:01:11,285 --> 00:01:16,457
One I would enlist aid in
holding to deserved account.
24
00:01:17,333 --> 00:01:20,085
- Why reveal the Syrian's plan?
- A loathsome creature,
25
00:01:20,211 --> 00:01:22,004
eyes slithering
across my daughter.
26
00:01:22,171 --> 00:01:24,924
I would see him to quick
and unfortunate end.
27
00:01:25,090 --> 00:01:28,469
But how best to rid ourselves
of such annoyance?
28
00:01:28,636 --> 00:01:30,012
I will send counterfeit message,
29
00:01:30,137 --> 00:01:33,933
confirming meeting in place
far removed from view.
30
00:01:34,099 --> 00:01:36,435
I shall see the matter
properly attended.
31
00:01:38,562 --> 00:01:40,356
It shall not be
the cries of Ashur
32
00:01:40,481 --> 00:01:43,150
that fill the air this night.
33
00:01:43,317 --> 00:01:44,734
Fucking cunt!
34
00:01:45,486 --> 00:01:47,196
Argh!
35
00:01:47,363 --> 00:01:49,865
- [splat!]
- Argh!
36
00:01:50,032 --> 00:01:51,992
Carry a message to your master.
37
00:01:52,159 --> 00:01:53,410
[Ashur]
I would not have let him live.
38
00:01:53,577 --> 00:01:55,287
I would reclaim title.
39
00:01:55,704 --> 00:01:57,163
[Ashur] Doctore.
40
00:01:57,706 --> 00:02:00,209
[blades ring, blood splatters]
41
00:02:00,376 --> 00:02:03,212
[rapid percussive music]
42
00:02:03,379 --> 00:02:07,132
[dark, eerie music]
43
00:02:08,299 --> 00:02:10,553
[pounding on door]
44
00:02:16,350 --> 00:02:18,644
[suspenseful music]
45
00:02:21,689 --> 00:02:23,691
Summon your dominus!
46
00:02:29,321 --> 00:02:30,739
[Ashur] Aedile.
47
00:02:33,284 --> 00:02:35,744
You grace us with
unexpected presence.
48
00:02:35,911 --> 00:02:37,329
Let us see
pleasantries abandoned
49
00:02:37,454 --> 00:02:39,123
and come to blunt words.
50
00:02:39,290 --> 00:02:41,876
Proculus asserts grievous
loss at your hands
51
00:02:42,042 --> 00:02:43,544
and seeks appropriate redress.
52
00:02:43,711 --> 00:02:45,796
Demands upon position
must exceed reason,
53
00:02:45,963 --> 00:02:47,840
to find you in such
low fellowship
54
00:02:48,007 --> 00:02:49,425
at early hour, Uvidus.
55
00:02:49,592 --> 00:02:51,093
Do more lanistae convene?
56
00:02:51,468 --> 00:02:52,928
Shall I send for
wine and olives?
57
00:02:53,095 --> 00:02:55,221
I merely request
Opiter's medicus,
58
00:02:55,806 --> 00:02:58,183
purchased with his
holdings at auction.
59
00:02:58,350 --> 00:02:59,727
Such could have
been satisfied
60
00:02:59,894 --> 00:03:03,105
absent need to rouse
esteemed Aedile.
61
00:03:03,272 --> 00:03:07,318
I thought it prudent to make
request among proper company.
62
00:03:07,443 --> 00:03:09,737
- Ah.
- [speaks Greek]
63
00:03:13,532 --> 00:03:15,743
[speaks Greek]
64
00:03:23,542 --> 00:03:26,337
- [both laugh]
- We stand in agreement, then.
65
00:03:26,879 --> 00:03:30,758
I leave you to your duties,
such as they may require.
66
00:03:34,595 --> 00:03:38,349
- Well, Syrian?
- I shall see the man produced.
67
00:03:40,100 --> 00:03:42,937
Satyrus will secure
him from your ludus.
68
00:03:43,395 --> 00:03:46,690
You would have me
descend there? Alone?
69
00:03:46,815 --> 00:03:49,485
See troubled mind
set to ease, little one.
70
00:03:49,985 --> 00:03:54,114
I shall see you escorted
by trusted doctore.
71
00:03:54,572 --> 00:03:55,699
[gasps]
72
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:06,126
Where are their bodies?
73
00:04:07,461 --> 00:04:09,213
My brothers stood gladiators
74
00:04:09,380 --> 00:04:12,007
and deserve the honor
of funeral rites!
75
00:04:12,549 --> 00:04:13,968
They shall not have them,
76
00:04:14,385 --> 00:04:17,096
nor you the opportunity
to break farewells.
77
00:04:17,262 --> 00:04:19,431
Why stay hand from
my blood as well?
78
00:04:19,890 --> 00:04:24,103
To deliver message to your
fucking master, as I said.
79
00:04:24,269 --> 00:04:27,022
Claiming life would
have sent the same.
80
00:04:27,147 --> 00:04:29,400
[ominous music)
81
00:04:33,445 --> 00:04:35,572
It is a terrible thing,
is it not?
82
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,535
To have those held to heart
ripped from it.
83
00:04:42,538 --> 00:04:44,456
Suffer, little man.
84
00:04:44,957 --> 00:04:48,085
Until the gods drag
you to the afterlife.
85
00:04:53,257 --> 00:04:54,842
[sighs]
86
00:04:55,592 --> 00:04:57,302
That seeping cunt!
87
00:04:57,469 --> 00:05:00,305
Bringing fucking aediles
and guards to bear.
88
00:05:00,764 --> 00:05:04,143
Perhaps wise precaution,
considering passions aroused.
89
00:05:05,394 --> 00:05:07,938
Tongue wags absent
fucking thought.
90
00:05:08,105 --> 00:05:09,064
Apologies.
91
00:05:09,189 --> 00:05:10,441
Word of this will
reach ear of Gabinius,
92
00:05:10,607 --> 00:05:12,651
weighing scale already
tipped to disfavor
93
00:05:12,818 --> 00:05:16,363
in wake of embarrassment
at auction.
94
00:05:17,406 --> 00:05:20,951
You will find means to balance
them again towards your favor,
95
00:05:21,368 --> 00:05:23,412
as you always have
and always shall.
96
00:05:27,374 --> 00:05:29,585
Does faith ever waver
towards me?
97
00:05:30,961 --> 00:05:32,837
Cause has yet to be given.
98
00:05:33,881 --> 00:05:35,716
I would keep sentiment close,
99
00:05:36,592 --> 00:05:38,510
to brace coming days.
100
00:05:43,515 --> 00:05:46,226
We stand, once again, in need...
101
00:05:47,144 --> 00:05:48,437
of a medicus.
102
00:05:48,604 --> 00:05:51,273
I will send word throughout
Capua in attempt to secure one,
103
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,442
in advance of further injuries.
104
00:05:57,696 --> 00:06:00,741
Strike with spear,
not fucking jaw!
105
00:06:02,451 --> 00:06:04,745
Your little stick
falls short of purpose.
106
00:06:04,912 --> 00:06:06,163
Again!
107
00:06:11,668 --> 00:06:13,879
[both grunt]
108
00:06:16,590 --> 00:06:18,842
[both grunt]
109
00:06:23,263 --> 00:06:24,556
[Korris]
Hold!
110
00:06:32,147 --> 00:06:33,315
[sighs]
111
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,859
I would see title
of doctore restored.
112
00:06:41,573 --> 00:06:43,158
Well, the gods rejoice...
113
00:06:46,245 --> 00:06:48,330
to see you again of a form,
114
00:06:48,872 --> 00:06:50,249
old friend.
115
00:06:52,042 --> 00:06:54,253
Fall to position,
you sentimental shit.
116
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:58,632
And see return to glory
upon the sands.
117
00:07:00,384 --> 00:07:01,635
Doctore.
118
00:07:03,053 --> 00:07:04,638
Attend!
119
00:07:11,145 --> 00:07:13,480
Achillia crawls back to us
120
00:07:13,647 --> 00:07:15,440
from the depths
of the underworld.
121
00:07:15,983 --> 00:07:18,360
And your dominus
blesses her once more
122
00:07:18,527 --> 00:07:20,279
with mantle of champion.
123
00:07:20,696 --> 00:07:22,948
[gladiators cheer]
124
00:07:26,618 --> 00:07:28,036
The bitch returns.
125
00:07:28,495 --> 00:07:30,998
Celadus,
pair with the champion.
126
00:07:32,166 --> 00:07:33,250
Doctore.
127
00:07:39,590 --> 00:07:42,176
The goddess of death
rises again.
128
00:07:42,342 --> 00:07:44,636
Upon wings of your instruction.
129
00:07:45,762 --> 00:07:46,847
Begin!
130
00:07:57,649 --> 00:07:58,859
Perhaps it would be prudent
131
00:07:59,026 --> 00:08:00,777
to remove ourselves
from the streets.
132
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,822
You fear renewed assault
by the Cilicians?
133
00:08:04,198 --> 00:08:05,407
No.
134
00:08:06,283 --> 00:08:07,868
City guards but conjure thought
135
00:08:08,035 --> 00:08:10,454
towards reason of
increased presence.
136
00:08:11,163 --> 00:08:12,831
The loss of dearest friend.
137
00:08:15,167 --> 00:08:16,293
As you once counselled me
138
00:08:16,460 --> 00:08:18,670
to face the darkness
of this world together,
139
00:08:19,254 --> 00:08:20,672
know that I offer same.
140
00:08:21,381 --> 00:08:23,842
I am undeserving
of such a child.
141
00:08:24,885 --> 00:08:25,969
[sighs]
142
00:08:27,471 --> 00:08:31,183
Apologies. Do I intrude
upon tender moment?
143
00:08:31,892 --> 00:08:34,519
[tense music]
144
00:08:35,479 --> 00:08:36,480
Proculus.
145
00:08:37,063 --> 00:08:39,566
In the flesh, warm with life.
146
00:08:41,693 --> 00:08:42,861
Viridia, return to villa.
147
00:08:43,028 --> 00:08:45,447
I would break words
with Proculus
148
00:08:45,572 --> 00:08:48,909
concerning acquisition of
a few of Opiter's trifles.
149
00:08:49,076 --> 00:08:50,494
Might I be of some small aid?
150
00:08:50,619 --> 00:08:54,331
Well, I would not refuse
such glorious company.
151
00:08:55,082 --> 00:08:58,252
See her to escort.
I will join you presently.
152
00:08:58,377 --> 00:09:00,337
May the gods favor
your dealings.
153
00:09:06,009 --> 00:09:08,762
Such a beautiful, ripe child.
154
00:09:11,682 --> 00:09:13,267
I did not expect to find myself
155
00:09:13,392 --> 00:09:16,061
downwind of you this day,
lanista.
156
00:09:16,478 --> 00:09:19,022
I am yet of this world.
157
00:09:19,856 --> 00:09:22,109
Yet, deep wound
158
00:09:22,526 --> 00:09:25,612
has been inflicted
upon poor Satyrus...
159
00:09:25,779 --> 00:09:29,866
in form of beloved brothers
put to grass,
160
00:09:30,492 --> 00:09:32,744
in addition to
several valued men.
161
00:09:33,495 --> 00:09:34,371
How unfortunate.
162
00:09:34,538 --> 00:09:36,206
More so for those
who move against me,
163
00:09:36,373 --> 00:09:38,667
absent thought of retribution.
164
00:09:39,626 --> 00:09:41,795
You forget who stands
my fucking husband.
165
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:44,840
Memory holds of the man
towering over Capua
166
00:09:45,215 --> 00:09:47,759
lo these many, many years.
167
00:09:48,343 --> 00:09:50,846
I pray he clings to
the ones left to him,
168
00:09:51,305 --> 00:09:53,140
for fear of what may befall wife
169
00:09:53,307 --> 00:09:55,600
and cherished daughter
upon his passing.
170
00:09:55,767 --> 00:09:57,436
You attempt to cower
with veiled threat?
171
00:09:57,602 --> 00:09:59,980
I attempt nothing,
save idle conversation.
172
00:10:00,397 --> 00:10:02,482
Know this, lanista -
the woman before you
173
00:10:02,649 --> 00:10:05,652
does not shrink at thought of
blood upon her fucking hands.
174
00:10:05,819 --> 00:10:08,822
[chuckles] Perhaps you shall...
175
00:10:09,239 --> 00:10:11,074
when it is your own.
176
00:10:16,913 --> 00:10:19,124
[ominous music]
177
00:10:23,545 --> 00:10:24,713
Husband.
178
00:10:25,756 --> 00:10:29,551
I would break words towards
decision made in error.
179
00:10:29,676 --> 00:10:31,636
Whatever the infraction,
consider it forgiven,
180
00:10:31,803 --> 00:10:33,680
in favor of more
vital concerns.
181
00:10:33,847 --> 00:10:35,557
It- it is not a matter
of forgiveness.
182
00:10:35,682 --> 00:10:38,769
I do not stand of fucking mind
to hear it upon the moment!
183
00:10:40,771 --> 00:10:44,399
What so consumes you to bare
teeth towards loving wife?
184
00:10:44,566 --> 00:10:45,734
Apologies.
185
00:10:46,526 --> 00:10:48,612
Response arrives at
last from Pompey,
186
00:10:48,737 --> 00:10:50,781
towards Cilician incursion.
187
00:10:51,990 --> 00:10:54,284
"I am otherwise engaged...
188
00:10:54,951 --> 00:10:56,119
"with Caesar."
189
00:10:56,828 --> 00:11:00,248
- What other words did he break?
- That is the sum of them.
190
00:11:00,707 --> 00:11:01,917
[sighs]
191
00:11:03,168 --> 00:11:06,254
Crassus dispatches his vagrant
sword to cleave alliance,
192
00:11:06,380 --> 00:11:09,132
whilst his army marshals
at the gates of Rome.
193
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,177
The man stands tyrant
in the forming,
194
00:11:12,344 --> 00:11:15,389
with Caesar stitched of
equal thread of ambition.
195
00:11:15,514 --> 00:11:18,392
If you feel such, why did you
concede to Caesar's demands,
196
00:11:18,558 --> 00:11:20,018
while he was yet within Capua?
197
00:11:20,185 --> 00:11:23,563
Crassus, Pompey and Caesar
each maneuver towards power
198
00:11:23,730 --> 00:11:25,107
currently beyond reach.
199
00:11:25,524 --> 00:11:27,567
We must tread every
path presented
200
00:11:27,734 --> 00:11:28,944
towards peaceful resolution
201
00:11:29,111 --> 00:11:32,489
or see beloved republic
devoured by ravenous appetites.
202
00:11:33,073 --> 00:11:36,243
Knot of Pompey's bond
loosens by day and hour.
203
00:11:36,785 --> 00:11:39,830
Should he unravel towards
cause of Crassus and Caesar,
204
00:11:39,996 --> 00:11:43,667
confederation formed
would be crushing blow.
205
00:11:43,834 --> 00:11:45,419
Well, you state but
the fucking obvious.
206
00:11:45,585 --> 00:11:47,712
And draw towards
obvious conclusion.
207
00:11:48,463 --> 00:11:52,509
Pompey's allegiance
must be moved toward advantage
208
00:11:53,093 --> 00:11:55,887
and desire.
209
00:11:56,847 --> 00:11:58,598
I have attempted all
210
00:11:58,765 --> 00:12:02,227
to tether the man towards
greater fucking purpose.
211
00:12:06,314 --> 00:12:07,732
Not all.
212
00:12:11,111 --> 00:12:13,113
How turn your thoughts, woman?
213
00:12:13,989 --> 00:12:16,283
[contemplative music]
214
00:12:26,793 --> 00:12:29,880
Marriage would seal
him towards your cause.
215
00:12:30,755 --> 00:12:32,215
You propose union
216
00:12:33,258 --> 00:12:34,509
with our daughter?
217
00:12:34,926 --> 00:12:37,095
Have you swam in fucking wine
in advance of entry,
218
00:12:37,262 --> 00:12:38,722
sinking towards murky bottom?
219
00:12:38,889 --> 00:12:40,432
I but seek elegant solution
220
00:12:40,599 --> 00:12:43,310
to myriad difficulties
presenting themselves.
221
00:12:43,894 --> 00:12:46,813
And to ensure Viridia
is secure in her future
222
00:12:46,980 --> 00:12:48,106
when unthinkable day arrives
223
00:12:48,273 --> 00:12:49,816
and you stand
no longer among us.
224
00:12:49,983 --> 00:12:53,987
Oh. Am I so grim of countenance,
to incite such worry?
225
00:12:54,154 --> 00:12:55,113
No.
226
00:12:56,364 --> 00:12:57,407
Yet...
227
00:12:59,659 --> 00:13:02,954
If the gods snatched her
husband from her upon whim,
228
00:13:03,079 --> 00:13:04,206
as they did Opiter.
229
00:13:04,664 --> 00:13:07,834
From warm embrace, we cannot
know what future holds,
230
00:13:08,001 --> 00:13:10,045
only guard against possibility.
231
00:13:10,212 --> 00:13:12,088
Well, if I were to
shed mortal coil
232
00:13:12,214 --> 00:13:14,466
at setting of fucking sun,
233
00:13:15,425 --> 00:13:18,053
you would fall beneath
wing of my brother.
234
00:13:18,762 --> 00:13:21,181
And is that a fate
you would wish upon us?
235
00:13:25,101 --> 00:13:26,478
There must lie another way.
236
00:13:26,645 --> 00:13:28,396
You have said yourself
there is not.
237
00:13:28,980 --> 00:13:31,274
Something must be done,
and swiftly.
238
00:13:33,652 --> 00:13:36,696
I shall give thought
upon suggestion.
239
00:13:37,113 --> 00:13:39,282
[poignant music]
240
00:13:43,078 --> 00:13:45,372
[eagle cries]
241
00:13:55,215 --> 00:13:56,424
Messia.
242
00:13:57,050 --> 00:13:58,677
I would have a moment.
243
00:13:59,803 --> 00:14:02,847
I have none to give.
Domina requires attention.
244
00:14:08,061 --> 00:14:11,690
We seldom have occasion to speak
since her arrival.
245
00:14:12,274 --> 00:14:14,442
You have said all
I need to hear.
246
00:14:16,403 --> 00:14:19,573
You were mistaken
regarding Dominus.
247
00:14:21,575 --> 00:14:24,411
- His heart is mine.
- You believe so?
248
00:14:24,578 --> 00:14:26,371
He has professed as much.
249
00:14:26,955 --> 00:14:28,331
[Ashur] Hilara?
250
00:14:33,128 --> 00:14:34,629
Your master calls.
251
00:14:41,303 --> 00:14:43,763
Gabinius has summoned me
to his villa.
252
00:14:44,431 --> 00:14:46,182
He seeks to mend relationship?
253
00:14:46,766 --> 00:14:48,727
Or to rend meat yet
clinging to bone.
254
00:14:48,893 --> 00:14:50,770
Has search for new
medicus born fruit?
255
00:14:51,313 --> 00:14:54,441
It has not.
I- I shall redouble effort.
256
00:14:55,442 --> 00:14:59,195
See that this one breaks word
in common fucking tongue.
257
00:15:02,324 --> 00:15:03,575
Fall to my side.
258
00:15:03,742 --> 00:15:05,785
And do not break from it
until I stand embraced
259
00:15:05,952 --> 00:15:07,412
within senator's villa.
260
00:15:15,003 --> 00:15:18,673
[indistinct conversations,
bell tolls]
261
00:15:21,134 --> 00:15:23,386
[birds chirp]
262
00:15:25,221 --> 00:15:27,390
[sighs]
263
00:15:30,435 --> 00:15:31,519
Apologies.
264
00:15:33,980 --> 00:15:35,982
Your father had summoned me.
265
00:15:36,441 --> 00:15:38,568
He should return upon a moment.
266
00:15:39,653 --> 00:15:40,862
Do you play?
267
00:15:43,698 --> 00:15:45,992
Such has been known to occur.
268
00:15:46,159 --> 00:15:48,995
Although deeper strategy eludes.
269
00:15:49,621 --> 00:15:52,207
Well, let instruction
see mystery dispelled.
270
00:15:57,170 --> 00:15:59,339
[gentle harp music]
271
00:16:04,969 --> 00:16:07,347
Pieces do not move
of own accord.
272
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:11,518
They rise and fall in response
to hand upon them.
273
00:16:13,395 --> 00:16:15,480
Firm, at times...
274
00:16:16,690 --> 00:16:19,609
to insert where
movement is desired;
275
00:16:21,528 --> 00:16:23,405
soft at others...
276
00:16:24,406 --> 00:16:27,200
when seduction
of opponent is aim.
277
00:16:29,869 --> 00:16:32,247
I have been eager to break
words with you again.
278
00:16:33,581 --> 00:16:34,874
Towards what subject?
279
00:16:36,084 --> 00:16:37,252
All of them.
280
00:16:38,211 --> 00:16:39,795
[chuckles]
281
00:16:45,844 --> 00:16:49,055
There - I have
broached first move.
282
00:16:49,889 --> 00:16:52,308
-How will you counter?
-[chuckles]
283
00:16:53,727 --> 00:16:56,521
Cautiously, and with
great trepidation.
284
00:17:04,070 --> 00:17:05,113
Ah.
285
00:17:06,906 --> 00:17:09,575
- I fall to rapid disadvantage.
- [both laugh]
286
00:17:09,743 --> 00:17:13,036
To triumph, you must not be
consumed by present loss.
287
00:17:13,662 --> 00:17:16,166
Gaze instead towards horizon...
288
00:17:17,709 --> 00:17:19,419
and victory it may yet hold.
289
00:17:23,672 --> 00:17:25,467
Ah, um...
290
00:17:31,347 --> 00:17:32,223
[gasps]
291
00:17:32,932 --> 00:17:35,393
Are you certain this is
the move you wish to make?
292
00:17:41,316 --> 00:17:42,609
[lush music]
293
00:17:42,776 --> 00:17:44,194
- [clears throat]
- Father.
294
00:17:44,903 --> 00:17:47,363
I was just schooling
your guest towards game.
295
00:17:47,781 --> 00:17:48,948
So I see.
296
00:17:49,783 --> 00:17:52,911
I will leave you to private
words, as men often desire.
297
00:17:53,578 --> 00:17:55,663
Gratitude for instruction.
298
00:17:56,247 --> 00:17:58,333
Perhaps continued
upon another day.
299
00:18:08,259 --> 00:18:10,094
She favors your company.
300
00:18:10,595 --> 00:18:12,347
I yet stand unworthy of hers.
301
00:18:12,472 --> 00:18:14,891
We find ourselves
in agreement, then.
302
00:18:16,476 --> 00:18:17,852
Gratitude for invitation,
303
00:18:18,019 --> 00:18:20,480
coupled with deepest apologies.
304
00:18:20,647 --> 00:18:21,481
Towards?
305
00:18:21,648 --> 00:18:23,483
Outburst of my
doctore at auction.
306
00:18:23,650 --> 00:18:25,735
A regrettable fit of passion.
307
00:18:25,860 --> 00:18:27,445
Forgotten as it happened.
308
00:18:28,279 --> 00:18:31,658
Does Achillia stand ready
to grace the arena once more?
309
00:18:31,825 --> 00:18:33,451
Injury has required
shift in style
310
00:18:33,576 --> 00:18:34,869
towards that of hoplomachus.
311
00:18:35,036 --> 00:18:37,330
Does she stand ready?
312
00:18:39,290 --> 00:18:41,459
- She does.
- Good.
313
00:18:43,086 --> 00:18:46,506
I have intentions towards
unannounced games,
314
00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:48,299
to lift spirit...
315
00:18:48,842 --> 00:18:51,636
and distract from
recent Cilician assaults.
316
00:18:52,136 --> 00:18:53,888
A most excellent notion.
317
00:18:54,013 --> 00:18:55,807
And who shall my champion face?
318
00:18:57,058 --> 00:19:00,144
Proculus crows to aedile that
he has acquired a Scythian
319
00:19:00,311 --> 00:19:02,397
of most frightful prowess.
320
00:19:02,981 --> 00:19:04,732
I have not laid eyes on the man,
321
00:19:05,358 --> 00:19:09,070
but we shall put boast
to test in the Primus, yes?
322
00:19:09,237 --> 00:19:13,199
I shall see Achillia prepared
for most welcomed spectacle.
323
00:19:15,243 --> 00:19:16,369
Linger...
324
00:19:17,203 --> 00:19:18,371
a moment.
325
00:19:20,081 --> 00:19:21,916
What know you
of Caesar's intent
326
00:19:22,041 --> 00:19:25,378
towards meeting with Pompey
in Sinuessa en Valle?
327
00:19:28,131 --> 00:19:30,174
It remains enigma.
328
00:19:30,341 --> 00:19:34,137
Yet Caesar's machination forever
move towards his own elevation.
329
00:19:34,304 --> 00:19:36,431
If he can sway
Pompey towards such,
330
00:19:36,598 --> 00:19:40,351
he'll spare nothing
to see it so,
331
00:19:40,727 --> 00:19:42,812
to the detriment of us all.
332
00:19:43,563 --> 00:19:47,817
Yes. Course of action avails
itself that may see Pompey
333
00:19:47,984 --> 00:19:52,447
again aligned towards this
house, and greater cause.
334
00:19:53,615 --> 00:19:55,825
Yet cost of it carves
grievous wound.
335
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,161
The sting of
yesterday's sacrifice,
336
00:19:58,328 --> 00:20:01,122
in service of greater
glory of tomorrow.
337
00:20:01,247 --> 00:20:04,584
[chuckles] You turn my own
words against me, Syrian?
338
00:20:04,751 --> 00:20:06,836
I but echo wisdom dispensed.
339
00:20:07,921 --> 00:20:11,090
Wise words often elude ear
of the man who speaks them.
340
00:20:11,257 --> 00:20:15,261
Gratitude for breaking them,
when most needed.
341
00:20:15,428 --> 00:20:17,597
I but serve more eminent cause.
342
00:20:18,848 --> 00:20:20,892
See Achillia and a clutch
of other offerings
343
00:20:21,059 --> 00:20:22,352
readied for the games -
344
00:20:22,936 --> 00:20:26,981
a distraction I find myself
unexpectedly in need of as well.
345
00:20:32,487 --> 00:20:34,697
[dramatic music]
346
00:20:38,242 --> 00:20:40,370
Celadus, press advantage.
347
00:20:44,415 --> 00:20:46,668
Achillia,
seek opening in retreat.
348
00:20:47,460 --> 00:20:49,420
[both grunt]
349
00:20:49,587 --> 00:20:51,631
[growls]
350
00:20:57,261 --> 00:21:00,348
- Your form returns.
- Yours never faltered.
351
00:21:00,473 --> 00:21:01,349
Attend!
352
00:21:02,558 --> 00:21:04,727
[panting]
353
00:21:10,692 --> 00:21:12,568
Senator Gabinius presents games
354
00:21:12,735 --> 00:21:15,279
to quell nerve from
Cilician attacks.
355
00:21:16,489 --> 00:21:20,368
Those to stand in blood and
glory for the House of Ashur
356
00:21:20,535 --> 00:21:22,245
shall be soon posted.
357
00:21:22,912 --> 00:21:26,290
Yet know that the
goddess of death again
358
00:21:26,457 --> 00:21:29,836
honors this house
in fucking Primus!
359
00:21:30,003 --> 00:21:31,713
[men cheer]
360
00:21:37,510 --> 00:21:39,178
Try not to lose the other hand.
361
00:21:39,554 --> 00:21:41,723
[men laugh]
362
00:21:45,351 --> 00:21:47,145
- [men cheer]
- Helios enters arena!
363
00:21:47,311 --> 00:21:51,858
Oh! Pray you don't leave
it upon fucking back!
364
00:21:52,025 --> 00:21:53,818
[laughter]
365
00:22:00,074 --> 00:22:02,160
We both gain position.
366
00:22:04,537 --> 00:22:05,913
Yet are to stand alone.
367
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,167
I give no shit to position
if it is not as champion.
368
00:22:10,626 --> 00:22:13,713
- A title Achillia has earned.
- And I have not?
369
00:22:14,422 --> 00:22:16,716
All I have ever known is
the way of the brotherhood.
370
00:22:18,092 --> 00:22:22,180
From first breath,
ludus has been my mother...
371
00:22:23,139 --> 00:22:25,058
blood my fucking milk.
372
00:22:26,142 --> 00:22:28,436
She bested Ammonius
in the arena.
373
00:22:30,354 --> 00:22:31,814
It's a feat yet
beyond your skill.
374
00:22:31,939 --> 00:22:33,232
You defend her at every turn.
375
00:22:33,399 --> 00:22:37,361
I but defend the champion
of this fucking house.
376
00:22:38,529 --> 00:22:40,156
She stands more than that.
377
00:22:41,199 --> 00:22:43,367
I see how her eyes
fall upon you.
378
00:22:44,368 --> 00:22:46,204
And yours upon her.
379
00:22:47,997 --> 00:22:50,833
I- I am your father, Tarchon.
380
00:22:51,876 --> 00:22:53,836
Yet I also stand a man.
381
00:22:56,714 --> 00:22:58,382
And you would deny me
the same comfort
382
00:22:58,549 --> 00:23:00,343
that you seek with your whore?
383
00:23:05,389 --> 00:23:07,475
Then cast off
bonds of father...
384
00:23:08,851 --> 00:23:10,561
standing only as a man.
385
00:23:12,772 --> 00:23:14,607
And call me son no more.
386
00:23:22,448 --> 00:23:24,742
The man not only
extended olive branch,
387
00:23:24,909 --> 00:23:27,495
he bestowed entire fucking tree.
388
00:23:27,662 --> 00:23:29,539
[laughs]
389
00:23:30,039 --> 00:23:31,958
My men to crowd arena,
390
00:23:32,125 --> 00:23:35,044
and Achillia to resume ascent
towards fucking heavens!
391
00:23:35,169 --> 00:23:37,463
Mwah! [laughs]
392
00:23:37,630 --> 00:23:38,756
[both laugh]
393
00:23:38,923 --> 00:23:42,385
Once more, my faith in you
proves true, Ashur.
394
00:23:43,553 --> 00:23:44,595
Ashur?
395
00:23:45,888 --> 00:23:47,849
You overreach familiarity.
396
00:23:48,558 --> 00:23:49,725
When last we laid together,
397
00:23:49,851 --> 00:23:52,645
it was your bidding
that I call you by name.
398
00:23:58,151 --> 00:23:59,735
[sighs]
399
00:24:03,156 --> 00:24:05,158
Words truly broken.
400
00:24:05,283 --> 00:24:08,327
Yet tongue and mind
were tainted with opium
401
00:24:08,494 --> 00:24:12,290
from that bitch Cornelia,
absent consent.
402
00:24:17,712 --> 00:24:20,798
[poignant music]
403
00:24:20,965 --> 00:24:22,884
Words held no meaning, then?
404
00:24:24,093 --> 00:24:27,305
Know that I hold you of
importance above all others...
405
00:24:29,098 --> 00:24:30,850
within this house.
406
00:24:32,810 --> 00:24:34,562
Yet beyond it,
407
00:24:35,897 --> 00:24:37,690
another lays claim to heart.
408
00:24:37,857 --> 00:24:40,193
[poignant music continues]
409
00:24:44,197 --> 00:24:45,323
Apologies.
410
00:24:46,365 --> 00:24:47,909
For misunderstanding.
411
00:24:49,911 --> 00:24:52,330
- Uh...
- Fetch wine.
412
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,583
And we shall think
no more upon it.
413
00:24:57,335 --> 00:24:59,962
Yes... Dominus.
414
00:25:01,214 --> 00:25:03,174
[poignant music continues]
415
00:25:08,721 --> 00:25:10,932
[sighs]
416
00:25:15,269 --> 00:25:16,771
[sighs]
417
00:25:20,149 --> 00:25:21,567
It is I who was mistaken.
418
00:25:21,734 --> 00:25:24,320
[sniffles, sighs]
419
00:25:25,363 --> 00:25:28,032
Professions of love
were conjured in error.
420
00:25:28,950 --> 00:25:30,826
How do you come by
such revelation?
421
00:25:31,285 --> 00:25:32,787
From Dominus himself.
422
00:25:34,705 --> 00:25:36,791
He holds affection
towards another.
423
00:25:38,084 --> 00:25:39,543
The daughter of Gabinius.
424
00:25:41,003 --> 00:25:43,589
I am a fool. [sniffles]
425
00:25:44,048 --> 00:25:46,425
Bitter taste of
rejection dilutes
426
00:25:46,884 --> 00:25:48,344
with passing of days.
427
00:25:52,723 --> 00:25:54,267
[sighs]
428
00:25:56,060 --> 00:25:58,020
[sniffles]
429
00:26:00,815 --> 00:26:02,608
[whispers] Apologies...
430
00:26:05,152 --> 00:26:08,155
for wounding loving
heart so carelessly.
431
00:26:08,739 --> 00:26:10,950
[sighs]
432
00:26:22,753 --> 00:26:24,422
Domina requires wine.
433
00:26:27,633 --> 00:26:29,927
Is this not what you desired?
434
00:26:35,057 --> 00:26:36,934
With all my being.
435
00:26:38,436 --> 00:26:40,896
Yet you shall never
be free of him.
436
00:26:42,148 --> 00:26:43,441
Nor I, you.
437
00:26:57,038 --> 00:26:59,123
Once again, you wander astray.
438
00:27:00,166 --> 00:27:03,627
Course was carefully chosen.
439
00:27:06,380 --> 00:27:07,423
Mmm.
440
00:27:08,132 --> 00:27:09,592
You wish to be alone?
441
00:27:11,510 --> 00:27:14,388
Attention pulls towards
troubling words
442
00:27:14,513 --> 00:27:16,098
broken with errant son.
443
00:27:17,641 --> 00:27:20,519
Are there any others
that spill from his mouth?
444
00:27:20,895 --> 00:27:23,230
You were born free.
445
00:27:24,190 --> 00:27:25,274
As was I.
446
00:27:25,775 --> 00:27:27,777
Tarchon was conceived
in bondage.
447
00:27:30,154 --> 00:27:31,155
[sighs]
448
00:27:37,453 --> 00:27:40,664
I forged the boy towards
singular purpose.
449
00:27:41,832 --> 00:27:44,210
Desire hammered and
heated in his blood
450
00:27:44,335 --> 00:27:46,629
from first fucking step -
451
00:27:47,838 --> 00:27:49,382
rise as champion.
452
00:27:50,466 --> 00:27:53,260
In ludus and arena and beyond.
453
00:27:53,803 --> 00:27:55,805
You have trained him well.
454
00:27:57,056 --> 00:27:59,183
There's no other
gladiator in this house
455
00:27:59,350 --> 00:28:01,102
that could stand against me.
456
00:28:03,020 --> 00:28:05,064
Save present company.
457
00:28:06,148 --> 00:28:09,110
I have but made him blind
to all else in life.
458
00:28:13,948 --> 00:28:17,243
And now he now counts father
as enemy obstructing ambition.
459
00:28:17,410 --> 00:28:19,578
It is the goddess of death...
460
00:28:20,496 --> 00:28:22,748
he holds guilty of
imagined offence.
461
00:28:23,749 --> 00:28:25,626
You but stand accomplice.
462
00:28:29,004 --> 00:28:30,589
I will speak to him
463
00:28:32,383 --> 00:28:33,926
and attempt to mend bridge.
464
00:28:34,885 --> 00:28:38,472
- You would do such a thing?
- I guarantee no result.
465
00:28:38,889 --> 00:28:40,349
He is thick of head...
466
00:28:42,518 --> 00:28:44,103
as is his father.
467
00:28:46,605 --> 00:28:47,940
[softly]
Gratitude.
468
00:28:51,610 --> 00:28:54,572
And how shall you show it?
469
00:28:54,905 --> 00:28:57,283
In all forms and manner...
470
00:28:58,534 --> 00:29:00,077
my goddess.
471
00:29:15,009 --> 00:29:17,178
[choral music]
472
00:29:22,933 --> 00:29:25,144
[both gasp]
473
00:29:30,983 --> 00:29:32,902
[groans]
474
00:29:33,068 --> 00:29:35,196
[gasps]
475
00:29:35,988 --> 00:29:37,865
[pants]
476
00:29:38,032 --> 00:29:40,868
[both gasp]
477
00:29:41,035 --> 00:29:43,245
[both pant]
478
00:29:48,918 --> 00:29:51,253
[choral music continues]
479
00:29:58,302 --> 00:30:01,180
- Pompey?
- He stands a consul of Rome,
480
00:30:01,347 --> 00:30:04,183
equaled in position
only by Crassus.
481
00:30:04,767 --> 00:30:08,437
The gods themselves could
not produce better match.
482
00:30:09,021 --> 00:30:10,105
But a handful of days past,
483
00:30:10,272 --> 00:30:13,067
you believed Quintus Thermus
to stand in such regard.
484
00:30:13,234 --> 00:30:14,735
Thermus points towards cause
485
00:30:14,902 --> 00:30:16,695
for union with Pompey
to be considered.
486
00:30:16,862 --> 00:30:18,656
You would trade my life
487
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,535
for more favored political
winds, absent my consent?
488
00:30:22,701 --> 00:30:25,746
What have I done to
see value so diminished?
489
00:30:25,913 --> 00:30:28,916
You stand... a woman.
490
00:30:29,333 --> 00:30:33,045
Consent is what
paterfamilias deems.
491
00:30:33,379 --> 00:30:34,547
And you deem it so?
492
00:30:34,713 --> 00:30:37,258
Honored mother
stands correct in word,
493
00:30:38,008 --> 00:30:41,262
though misguided
in father's intent.
494
00:30:42,304 --> 00:30:45,015
It is not valuation of you
that moves me.
495
00:30:45,182 --> 00:30:46,308
It is fear.
496
00:30:47,393 --> 00:30:48,686
And desperation.
497
00:30:49,436 --> 00:30:51,397
Caesar maneuvers Pompey
498
00:30:51,522 --> 00:30:54,275
towards alignment with
himself and Crassus.
499
00:30:55,234 --> 00:30:56,944
If they form triumvirate,
500
00:30:57,695 --> 00:31:01,240
republic and all within -
including beloved daughter -
501
00:31:02,241 --> 00:31:04,535
will fall to severest concern.
502
00:31:05,202 --> 00:31:06,912
Is there no other path?
503
00:31:09,790 --> 00:31:12,209
I have failed to divine one.
504
00:31:14,962 --> 00:31:17,506
As paterfamilias,
it is within my right
505
00:31:17,673 --> 00:31:19,675
to command you to
accept this union.
506
00:31:20,843 --> 00:31:22,636
Yet you have suffered much.
507
00:31:23,387 --> 00:31:26,223
And I would not add to it
by proclamations and demands.
508
00:31:26,390 --> 00:31:28,392
You turn from fucking union?
509
00:31:28,559 --> 00:31:29,560
Hold tongue.
510
00:31:30,185 --> 00:31:34,231
I but place decision in hands
that must carry burden.
511
00:31:36,400 --> 00:31:38,235
It is a weighty decision -
512
00:31:39,653 --> 00:31:42,615
impact of which shall resound
513
00:31:42,781 --> 00:31:45,117
beyond our reckoning and years.
514
00:31:46,827 --> 00:31:48,370
Measure it with care.
515
00:31:52,207 --> 00:31:54,001
[birds call]
516
00:31:54,168 --> 00:31:56,337
[clattering]
517
00:31:58,213 --> 00:31:59,214
Tarchon.
518
00:32:00,299 --> 00:32:01,467
I would share words.
519
00:32:01,592 --> 00:32:03,344
Break them with someone
not fucking before you.
520
00:32:03,510 --> 00:32:05,763
I would see us
no longer at odds.
521
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,979
Then relinquish
title undeserved.
522
00:32:14,146 --> 00:32:15,606
How do you perceive it so?
523
00:32:15,731 --> 00:32:18,150
Did I not fight to gain it,
as everyone within this house?
524
00:32:18,317 --> 00:32:20,235
You did not gain
it through skill,
525
00:32:20,402 --> 00:32:22,988
but by novelty of cunt
standing gladiator.
526
00:32:23,155 --> 00:32:26,367
Ammonius did not give shit
towards what lay between my legs
527
00:32:26,533 --> 00:32:27,868
when I took his fucking life.
528
00:32:28,035 --> 00:32:31,497
Nor will I, when
I take yours upon a day.
529
00:32:34,416 --> 00:32:36,418
Let us come to common ground.
530
00:32:37,544 --> 00:32:39,588
-Your father does not wish--
-I have no father.
531
00:32:41,131 --> 00:32:44,009
Nor desire towards
further words with his whore.
532
00:32:46,303 --> 00:32:47,805
Do not turn from me.
533
00:32:48,180 --> 00:32:49,640
[both grunt]
534
00:32:49,807 --> 00:32:52,017
- [snarls]
- [both grunt]
535
00:32:52,184 --> 00:32:54,395
[both grunt]
536
00:32:55,187 --> 00:32:58,023
[both grunt]
537
00:32:58,190 --> 00:33:00,442
- [grunts]
- Argh!
538
00:33:04,154 --> 00:33:06,365
[pants]
539
00:33:10,994 --> 00:33:13,455
Have you lost fucking sense?
540
00:33:14,456 --> 00:33:17,543
- Apologies, Dominus-
- Fuck your apologies!
541
00:33:21,380 --> 00:33:22,881
Can she fight?
542
00:33:28,721 --> 00:33:32,057
If we yet retain medicus,
perhaps - by end of month.
543
00:33:32,224 --> 00:33:33,475
Argh!
544
00:33:34,476 --> 00:33:35,519
Dominus.
545
00:33:36,603 --> 00:33:39,314
I shall assume position
and fight as champion.
546
00:33:45,070 --> 00:33:49,158
You shall never
stand champion, boy!
547
00:33:49,324 --> 00:33:51,910
If matches were not already
posted to the aedile,
548
00:33:52,077 --> 00:33:54,747
I would see you over
the fucking cliff!
549
00:33:54,872 --> 00:33:58,083
- Dominus!
- Do not fucking speak!
550
00:34:06,216 --> 00:34:08,427
[suspenseful music]
551
00:34:14,433 --> 00:34:16,393
We must present alternative
champion to Gabinius
552
00:34:16,559 --> 00:34:20,271
and pray offering does not
tip scale back to disfavor.
553
00:34:21,565 --> 00:34:24,026
Who stands above all
others beyond Achillia
554
00:34:24,151 --> 00:34:26,945
and this fucking pup?!
555
00:34:28,070 --> 00:34:29,490
There is but one.
556
00:34:32,034 --> 00:34:34,244
[crowd clamors]
557
00:34:39,291 --> 00:34:41,460
[crowd clamors]
558
00:34:45,213 --> 00:34:47,423
Argh!
559
00:34:50,093 --> 00:34:52,095
- [thud]
- [groans]
560
00:34:52,262 --> 00:34:54,139
[cheering, whistling]
561
00:34:54,306 --> 00:34:55,599
You promise fucking moon
562
00:34:55,724 --> 00:34:57,768
and conspire to present
shadowed reflection.
563
00:34:57,935 --> 00:34:59,102
Apologies. Achillia suffered--
564
00:34:59,228 --> 00:35:01,814
These games were built
upon name of your champion,
565
00:35:02,272 --> 00:35:04,399
and now you shit
upon fucking effort.
566
00:35:05,275 --> 00:35:07,945
[crowd clamors]
567
00:35:08,111 --> 00:35:10,906
Pray the crowd does not
demand Syrian blood
568
00:35:11,031 --> 00:35:13,367
in reply to such offense.
569
00:35:14,326 --> 00:35:16,537
[crowd clamors]
570
00:35:18,330 --> 00:35:22,000
Is there any endeavor that
does not find you failure?
571
00:35:22,167 --> 00:35:25,546
[scoffs] I hold no
humor to spar with you.
572
00:35:25,712 --> 00:35:27,381
Why does Proculus yet live?
573
00:35:28,257 --> 00:35:29,508
The fault lies with you.
574
00:35:29,675 --> 00:35:33,053
The man was not produced at
appointed time, as promised.
575
00:35:33,220 --> 00:35:36,390
[scoffs] Fault is indeed mine,
576
00:35:36,557 --> 00:35:40,102
for ever laying trust
in one so beneath me.
577
00:35:41,270 --> 00:35:43,272
[gladiators grunt]
578
00:35:43,397 --> 00:35:45,232
[crowd cheers, whistles]
579
00:35:45,399 --> 00:35:47,234
[crowd clamors]
580
00:35:47,401 --> 00:35:49,194
[crowd cheers, whistles]
581
00:35:49,361 --> 00:35:51,280
- [crowd cheers]
- [sighs]
582
00:35:51,446 --> 00:35:53,615
[crowd cheers]
583
00:35:58,370 --> 00:36:00,622
[crowd cheers]
584
00:36:04,376 --> 00:36:06,587
[both grunt]
585
00:36:08,338 --> 00:36:11,174
[both grunt]
586
00:36:11,300 --> 00:36:13,594
- Argh!
- [crowd cheers]
587
00:36:15,387 --> 00:36:17,598
[both grunt]
588
00:36:19,308 --> 00:36:21,560
[crowd clamors]
589
00:36:25,397 --> 00:36:27,065
[cheering]
590
00:36:27,232 --> 00:36:30,110
- [applause, whistling]
- Your man stands victorious.
591
00:36:30,235 --> 00:36:33,196
- Mm.
- Yet you do not rejoice?
592
00:36:34,448 --> 00:36:36,783
Your father is of a mood.
593
00:36:37,367 --> 00:36:38,452
Mm.
594
00:36:39,786 --> 00:36:41,121
You must forgive it.
595
00:36:42,039 --> 00:36:45,334
Matters of gravest import
weigh upon him.
596
00:36:47,377 --> 00:36:49,421
Let us announce next
fucking contest.
597
00:36:49,588 --> 00:36:51,924
Proculus, who do you present?
598
00:36:52,257 --> 00:36:55,052
- Satyrus, thraex.
- Ah.
599
00:36:55,218 --> 00:36:58,221
Last survivor of the
deadly Brothers Ferox.
600
00:36:58,388 --> 00:37:01,767
Last? What befell his
horrible little siblings?
601
00:37:02,351 --> 00:37:03,977
Tumbled to misfortune.
602
00:37:04,895 --> 00:37:09,441
As many in Capua are wont
in these troubled times.
603
00:37:10,776 --> 00:37:13,570
- Syrian?
- Helios. Hoplomachus.
604
00:37:14,488 --> 00:37:18,283
I fear Satyrus will soon be
reunited with his brothers.
605
00:37:18,450 --> 00:37:19,368
[scoffs]
606
00:37:21,578 --> 00:37:25,415
From the House of the Syrian,
Helios - hoplomachus!
607
00:37:25,582 --> 00:37:26,333
[laughs]
608
00:37:26,500 --> 00:37:28,669
[cheering]
609
00:37:29,461 --> 00:37:32,339
Argh! [growls]
610
00:37:32,881 --> 00:37:35,467
Your dominus must be
truly displeased -
611
00:37:36,343 --> 00:37:39,972
to send a third of a man to
meet his doom upon the sands.
612
00:37:40,138 --> 00:37:43,016
I shall honor my brothers!
613
00:37:43,183 --> 00:37:46,144
And see all who hold me in doubt
614
00:37:46,311 --> 00:37:49,314
- fucked to the afterlife!
- [jeering]
615
00:37:49,481 --> 00:37:52,192
Argh! [growls]
616
00:37:52,359 --> 00:37:55,237
- Satyrus - thraex.
- [crowd boos]
617
00:37:55,404 --> 00:37:57,322
- Argh!
- [crowd boos]
618
00:37:57,489 --> 00:37:59,324
[crowd jeers]
619
00:37:59,491 --> 00:38:01,326
[laughter]
620
00:38:01,493 --> 00:38:03,161
Argh!
621
00:38:03,328 --> 00:38:05,998
- Argh!
- [laughter, jeering]
622
00:38:08,291 --> 00:38:11,169
The gods have sent
me fucking child!
623
00:38:11,962 --> 00:38:14,339
And I shall swiftly
return him to their hands!
624
00:38:14,506 --> 00:38:16,717
[cheering]
625
00:38:17,884 --> 00:38:19,011
Begin!
626
00:38:19,511 --> 00:38:20,929
[cheering]
627
00:38:22,472 --> 00:38:24,683
[growls]
628
00:38:26,476 --> 00:38:28,729
[growls]
629
00:38:31,481 --> 00:38:33,734
[both bellow]
630
00:38:35,485 --> 00:38:37,863
- Argh!
- [thud]
631
00:38:38,113 --> 00:38:39,740
[crowd gasps]
632
00:38:40,532 --> 00:38:42,743
[gasps]
633
00:38:43,535 --> 00:38:45,746
[pants]
634
00:38:49,875 --> 00:38:51,334
[grunts]
635
00:38:53,003 --> 00:38:53,754
[bellows]
636
00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,215
- [crowd cheers]
- [both laugh]
637
00:39:02,596 --> 00:39:04,765
[growls]
638
00:39:10,145 --> 00:39:13,899
Send more of your men for
me to kill, you fucking oaf!
639
00:39:14,066 --> 00:39:15,776
[growls]
640
00:39:17,527 --> 00:39:19,112
Most unexpected result.
641
00:39:19,613 --> 00:39:23,658
Yes. Perhaps the little
man yet holds worth.
642
00:39:23,825 --> 00:39:26,036
[dramatic music]
643
00:39:31,666 --> 00:39:34,461
[cheering]
644
00:39:34,586 --> 00:39:36,463
The gods conspire
against your man,
645
00:39:37,047 --> 00:39:38,882
to see such unfortunate turn.
646
00:39:39,341 --> 00:39:43,053
It is but a day,
in an endless string of them.
647
00:39:45,430 --> 00:39:47,557
How does fire eternally burn,
648
00:39:47,974 --> 00:39:49,851
in face of grim reality?
649
00:39:51,478 --> 00:39:54,523
You yourself counsel not to
be consumed with present loss,
650
00:39:55,357 --> 00:39:57,692
yet look towards horizon
of future victories.
651
00:39:58,110 --> 00:40:01,321
Hmm. Words spoken
absent thought...
652
00:40:02,405 --> 00:40:03,865
void of meaning.
653
00:40:06,660 --> 00:40:08,286
They hold such to me.
654
00:40:13,667 --> 00:40:18,338
I... I would remove myself,
to seek shade and water.
655
00:40:26,263 --> 00:40:30,559
You remember my teachings,
and see yourself to victory.
656
00:40:31,434 --> 00:40:33,895
And perhaps a return
to Dominus' favor.
657
00:40:35,188 --> 00:40:36,398
You are the past.
658
00:40:41,027 --> 00:40:42,612
I forge my own future.
659
00:40:43,697 --> 00:40:46,449
[Gabinius]
Enter Tarchon - thraex!
660
00:40:46,616 --> 00:40:48,785
[cheering, applause]
661
00:40:54,624 --> 00:40:56,835
[cheering, applause]
662
00:40:57,669 --> 00:40:59,796
[cheering]
663
00:41:05,552 --> 00:41:07,804
[cheering continues]
664
00:41:10,348 --> 00:41:14,394
And standing for the House of
Proculus, Viction - murmillo!
665
00:41:14,561 --> 00:41:16,813
[cheering, applause]
666
00:41:17,606 --> 00:41:19,816
[growls, laughs]
667
00:41:27,574 --> 00:41:29,868
[suspenseful music]
668
00:41:30,493 --> 00:41:31,411
Begin!
669
00:41:32,704 --> 00:41:34,956
[cheering, whistling]
670
00:41:37,667 --> 00:41:39,878
[both grunt]
671
00:41:43,673 --> 00:41:46,676
[cheering]
672
00:41:46,843 --> 00:41:48,136
Stands swell to bursting.
673
00:41:48,303 --> 00:41:50,680
With equal number refused
entry beyond gates.
674
00:41:50,847 --> 00:41:54,017
Would that space presented for
all of Capua to witness display.
675
00:41:54,184 --> 00:41:56,228
You strike upon vexing truth.
676
00:41:56,394 --> 00:41:57,437
Syrian.
677
00:41:57,604 --> 00:41:58,772
Where does effort stand
678
00:41:58,939 --> 00:42:00,774
in swaying your
patron towards coin,
679
00:42:00,899 --> 00:42:03,818
in service of seeing old arena
restored to former glory?
680
00:42:03,985 --> 00:42:06,613
I labor unceasingly
towards such a day.
681
00:42:07,155 --> 00:42:09,032
I have not heard
Crassus mention it.
682
00:42:09,574 --> 00:42:12,619
Does he even recall the
Syrian yet draws breath?
683
00:42:13,119 --> 00:42:16,331
Favor holds firm and shall
produce desired results.
684
00:42:17,457 --> 00:42:19,918
[swords clash, gladiators grunt]
685
00:42:20,961 --> 00:42:23,380
You take leave while
your man yet fights?
686
00:42:23,546 --> 00:42:26,258
Excess of wine,
demanding relief.
687
00:42:26,675 --> 00:42:28,885
[crowd cheers]
688
00:42:31,638 --> 00:42:34,057
Our ranks noticeably thin.
689
00:42:35,725 --> 00:42:37,894
[both grunt]
690
00:42:40,730 --> 00:42:42,607
Argh!
691
00:42:42,774 --> 00:42:44,943
[grunts]
692
00:42:45,735 --> 00:42:47,529
Argh!
693
00:42:47,696 --> 00:42:49,906
- Yes!
- [crowd cheers]
694
00:42:51,658 --> 00:42:53,910
[crowd cheers]
695
00:42:56,705 --> 00:42:58,164
Have I offended?
696
00:42:58,957 --> 00:43:00,500
If so, give voice
to transgression,
697
00:43:00,625 --> 00:43:03,211
so I may strangle it
till void of life.
698
00:43:05,005 --> 00:43:06,715
You stand free of burden.
699
00:43:07,257 --> 00:43:08,675
Yet burden exists.
700
00:43:09,467 --> 00:43:11,094
It's never far from presence,
701
00:43:11,553 --> 00:43:15,265
for those who carry the name
of woman in the republic.
702
00:43:16,016 --> 00:43:18,101
Were you born a man...
703
00:43:18,852 --> 00:43:21,313
I fear I would turn
from softer touch.
704
00:43:21,771 --> 00:43:23,940
[both chuckle]
705
00:43:28,111 --> 00:43:30,071
Would that we were
not who we are.
706
00:43:32,324 --> 00:43:34,409
Yet still within
sphere of each other.
707
00:43:40,832 --> 00:43:42,250
[gasps]
708
00:43:45,211 --> 00:43:47,547
[whispers] Viridia, I...
709
00:43:48,465 --> 00:43:49,549
[gasps]
710
00:43:49,716 --> 00:43:51,843
[crowd roars]
711
00:43:52,010 --> 00:43:55,013
I should return to pulvinus
before absence draws question.
712
00:43:57,057 --> 00:43:58,808
What has come between us?
713
00:44:01,686 --> 00:44:03,063
Is it your mother, or--
714
00:44:03,229 --> 00:44:05,273
I have been asked
to consider marriage.
715
00:44:06,232 --> 00:44:09,069
Yes. Yes, to Quintus Thermus.
716
00:44:09,235 --> 00:44:11,029
I have already spoken
to your father against it.
717
00:44:11,154 --> 00:44:12,447
- He agrees that--
- No.
718
00:44:12,614 --> 00:44:15,450
I have been asked to consider
marriage to Pompey.
719
00:44:17,827 --> 00:44:19,037
Pompey?
720
00:44:19,204 --> 00:44:21,915
My father fears what may happen
if Crassus, Caesar and he
721
00:44:22,082 --> 00:44:24,876
were to stand united
against the republic.
722
00:44:28,088 --> 00:44:31,174
And he seeks to firmly
secure the man...
723
00:44:31,966 --> 00:44:33,301
in opposition.
724
00:44:36,721 --> 00:44:38,098
You cannot do this.
725
00:44:39,015 --> 00:44:42,644
Pompey casts wives aside with
shifting of fucking breeze.
726
00:44:42,811 --> 00:44:45,730
He but marries towards
power and position.
727
00:44:45,897 --> 00:44:47,399
What man does not?
728
00:44:52,237 --> 00:44:53,863
The one before you.
729
00:44:56,866 --> 00:44:58,159
[gasps]
730
00:45:00,370 --> 00:45:02,122
Allow me to amend.
731
00:45:03,915 --> 00:45:05,542
What Roman man?
732
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:13,716
[poignant music]
733
00:45:13,883 --> 00:45:16,010
[crowd roars]
734
00:45:20,932 --> 00:45:23,226
Presence was sorely missed.
735
00:45:23,726 --> 00:45:25,437
I am here now.
736
00:45:29,441 --> 00:45:31,526
And I stand for the republic.
737
00:45:31,693 --> 00:45:32,777
[gasps]
738
00:45:36,322 --> 00:45:39,576
Would that all fathers
were so blessed as I.
739
00:45:43,872 --> 00:45:47,083
[suspenseful music]
740
00:45:47,250 --> 00:45:48,793
You appear abandoned.
741
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,129

00:45:52,881 --> 00:45:55,091

00:45:56,885 --> 00:45:58,303
Come on!

00:45:58,803 --> 00:46:00,805

00:46:09,314 --> 00:46:10,732
Yes, Tarchon!

[both grunt]
749
00:46:15,195 --> 00:46:16,529
Get up!

- [gasps]
- He strikes down a Roman!
766
00:46:57,278 --> 00:46:58,279
Execute the man!
767
00:46:58,446 --> 00:47:00,782
I will personally see my
gladiator put to death!
768
00:47:00,949 --> 00:47:02,784
Quickly! Move!
769
00:47:02,951 --> 00:47:05,870
[both grunt]

00:47:06,037 --> 00:47:07,914

00:47:20,677 --> 00:47:22,095
Reclaim seat.
776
00:47:22,470 --> 00:47:25,014
My man has seen to fucking deed.
777
00:47:27,642 --> 00:47:33,106
A Roman has been struck down,
yet justice has been meted...
778
00:47:33,731 --> 00:47:35,316
by the House of the Syrian!
779
00:47:35,483 --> 00:47:37,902
[crowd cheers]
780
00:47:38,069 --> 00:47:40,238
[triumphant music]
781
00:47:45,034 --> 00:47:46,953
Yes! Yes!
782
00:47:47,078 --> 00:47:48,830
[cheering]
783
00:47:48,997 --> 00:47:51,249
[whistling, cheering]
784
00:47:56,504 --> 00:47:59,382
You! You fucking god!
785
00:48:00,008 --> 00:48:02,552
[pants]
786
00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:04,637
A victory well earned.
787
00:48:04,804 --> 00:48:08,641
I do not need your praise.
Nor seek it, champion.
788
00:48:08,975 --> 00:48:11,185
[poignant music]
789
00:48:13,229 --> 00:48:16,482
You return to Primus after too
long an absence, old friend.
790
00:48:17,650 --> 00:48:19,736
It should be Achillia
upon my place.
791
00:48:19,902 --> 00:48:22,405
Yet it is you the gods
have chosen this day.
792
00:48:23,448 --> 00:48:26,701
Honor them,
with blood and glory.
793
00:48:36,210 --> 00:48:38,838
[sighs] Primus at last arrives.
794
00:48:39,005 --> 00:48:40,798
And with it the return
of the goddess of death,
795
00:48:40,965 --> 00:48:42,258
to further excite the crowd.
796
00:48:42,383 --> 00:48:45,345
I fear they shall stand
in disappointment.
797
00:48:45,928 --> 00:48:47,597
Achillia does not
take to the sands?
798
00:48:47,722 --> 00:48:48,598
She does not.
799
00:48:48,765 --> 00:48:50,516
Then who is my
champion to face?
800
00:48:50,642 --> 00:48:52,685
A mystery yet to unfold.
801
00:48:54,854 --> 00:48:57,482
Syrian. Present contest.
802
00:48:57,649 --> 00:49:01,611
And let your voice be harbinger
of fucking dissatisfaction.
803
00:49:04,072 --> 00:49:06,324
[suspenseful music]
804
00:49:17,877 --> 00:49:23,132
Achillia, the goddess of death,
stands champion in this arena!
805
00:49:23,299 --> 00:49:25,259
[cheering]
806
00:49:30,056 --> 00:49:33,393
Not by mere name,
but by conquest!
807
00:49:33,559 --> 00:49:35,812
[cheering, whistling]
808
00:49:37,980 --> 00:49:40,566
Would you see her
face one of equal skill
809
00:49:40,733 --> 00:49:43,027
towards blood and victory?!
810
00:49:43,194 --> 00:49:45,363
[crowd cheers]
811
00:49:49,117 --> 00:49:51,911
I would see it as well.
812
00:49:53,705 --> 00:49:56,999
Yet who stands worthy
of facing her?
813
00:49:57,125 --> 00:50:00,044
Let this Primus answer question
814
00:50:00,211 --> 00:50:01,337
and see victor
815
00:50:01,504 --> 00:50:04,882
stand against the goddess
of death in future contest!
816
00:50:05,007 --> 00:50:07,802
- [jeering]
- From the House of Ashur,
817
00:50:07,969 --> 00:50:10,847
I give you a legend
in the arena.
818
00:50:11,013 --> 00:50:13,015
- [gate clanks]
- Enter Celadus!
819
00:50:13,182 --> 00:50:15,017
Dimachaerus!
820
00:50:15,184 --> 00:50:17,311
[crowd jeers]
821
00:50:19,147 --> 00:50:21,357
[crowd boos]
822
00:50:23,192 --> 00:50:25,027
[crowd boos]
823
00:50:25,194 --> 00:50:26,821
Achillia!
824
00:50:26,988 --> 00:50:30,074
- Give us Achillia!
- Where is Achillia?!
825
00:50:30,241 --> 00:50:32,410
[crowd boos]
826
00:50:33,911 --> 00:50:37,081
And from the
House of Proculus...
827
00:50:40,084 --> 00:50:43,171
I give you the Unknown Scythian.
828
00:50:43,463 --> 00:50:45,965
Again, dimachaerus.
829
00:50:46,132 --> 00:50:48,968

[crowd cheers, applauds]
834
00:51:03,816 --> 00:51:05,777
You present another
fucking woman?
835
00:51:05,943 --> 00:51:06,778
Apologies.
836
00:51:06,944 --> 00:51:09,113
It is what the crowd
now demands.
837
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,032
[chuckles]
838
00:51:12,158 --> 00:51:14,452

[grunts]
863
00:52:39,662 --> 00:52:42,999
Proculus, how did you
acquire such a specimen?
864
00:52:43,165 --> 00:52:44,458
She stands a marvel.
865
00:52:44,625 --> 00:52:48,421
At great expense to myself,
and those who dare to face her.
866
00:52:48,588 --> 00:52:50,006
Contest has only yet begun.
867
00:52:50,172 --> 00:52:52,174
And my man has
drawn first blood.
868
00:52:52,341 --> 00:52:53,384
Yes.
869
00:52:53,551 --> 00:52:56,137
I instructed her not to
end the match too quickly,
870
00:52:56,554 --> 00:52:59,348
so that the crowd
may stand satisfied.
871
00:53:00,057 --> 00:53:02,351
