1
00:00:18,811 --> 00:00:19,937
Spartacus!

2
00:00:20,980 --> 00:00:22,273
There is movement on the path.

3
00:00:37,371 --> 00:00:38,706
Ashur.

4
00:00:46,589 --> 00:00:48,507
A man must accept his fate,

5
00:00:54,305 --> 00:00:55,890
or be overwhelmed by it.

6
00:00:57,099 --> 00:01:00,770
THE EVIL ASHUR,
SLAVE, GLADIATOR AND TRAITOR

7
00:01:00,853 --> 00:01:05,191
HE FOUND THE END HE DESERVED
AT THE HANDS OF SPARTACUS AND HIS REBELS.

8
00:01:09,528 --> 00:01:13,532
CONDEMNED TO SUFFER IN HELL,
RECEIVES THE CHANCE TO COME BACK TO LIFE

9
00:01:13,616 --> 00:01:17,870
FROM THE GHOST OF LUCREZIA,
HIS FORMER MASTER'S WIFE...

10
00:01:24,835 --> 00:01:25,836
Ashur.

11
00:01:34,845 --> 00:01:37,473
Your life was lost on Vesuvius,

12
00:01:38,140 --> 00:01:41,685
torn from those who had suffered from you
a profound offense.

13
00:01:42,603 --> 00:01:46,148
And now you are here, kneeling
before your Domina and her offspring

14
00:01:46,232 --> 00:01:48,359
among the dead in the Underworld.

15
00:01:49,652 --> 00:01:53,322
How much were you worth as a man,
when your heart still beat?

16
00:01:54,990 --> 00:01:57,576
A Syrian despised by everyone?

17
00:01:58,285 --> 00:02:01,038
A slave of my husband, Batiatus.

18
00:02:02,832 --> 00:02:03,874
A gladiator,

19
00:02:05,209 --> 00:02:08,295
for a fleeting moment
on the sands of the arena.

20
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,424
Elevated to trusted conspirator,

21
00:02:12,925 --> 00:02:15,594
appreciated for your gifts
of cunning and deceit.

22
00:02:17,388 --> 00:02:19,098
And when the House of Batiatus fell

23
00:02:19,181 --> 00:02:22,017
in the hands of the mad Thracian Spartacus
and his rebels…

24
00:02:23,686 --> 00:02:24,895
Kill them all!

25
00:02:26,397 --> 00:02:28,190
…you betrayed your brothers.

26
00:02:29,275 --> 00:02:31,151
Helping the Roman masters,

27
00:02:31,735 --> 00:02:34,613
in an attempt to tame
the rebellious slaves.

28
00:02:36,115 --> 00:02:40,119
However, your end has come
well before that of Spartacus,

29
00:02:40,202 --> 00:02:43,914
torn from the world of the living
from Roman iron.

30
00:02:45,749 --> 00:02:47,877
But the plots of the Fates are multiple.

31
00:02:48,794 --> 00:02:52,256
Your untimely passing
it was just one of the possible paths.

32
00:02:53,382 --> 00:02:55,467
Want to see another one?

33
00:02:56,093 --> 00:03:02,516
A new reality, untied from history,
in which you don't die on Vesuvius?

34
00:03:03,559 --> 00:03:05,978
Where do you take sides instead?
with the mighty Crassus,

35
00:03:06,061 --> 00:03:08,063
the richest man in the whole Republic

36
00:03:09,023 --> 00:03:12,109
and his battle dog
Gaius Julius Caesar.

37
00:03:13,402 --> 00:03:18,699
A road where you throw the fatal spear
who kills Spartacus?

38
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:26,040
And, with that gesture, you save Crassus,
gaining his favor and protection

39
00:03:26,957 --> 00:03:30,502
and all that once upon a time
did it belong to my noble husband?

40
00:03:30,586 --> 00:03:32,755
Welcome the fate that the gods
they reserved you.

41
00:03:32,838 --> 00:03:35,758
You want to know
where would destiny take you?

42
00:03:35,841 --> 00:03:37,134
Wake up, then.

43
00:03:37,217 --> 00:03:39,303
The gods give you this power.

44
00:03:39,386 --> 00:03:41,680
And accept life
that you could have lived.

45
00:03:41,764 --> 00:03:43,682
They're not done with you yet.

46
00:03:44,224 --> 00:03:45,225
Wake up.

47
00:03:54,568 --> 00:03:55,653
Dominus?

48
00:03:57,321 --> 00:03:58,364
Not feeling well?

49
00:04:00,407 --> 00:04:04,828
A fleeting dream, born from a meal
unlucky before sleep.

50
00:04:04,912 --> 00:04:07,289
What Morpheus revealed to you
along its banks?

51
00:04:08,624 --> 00:04:09,625
It goes further

52
00:04:14,213 --> 00:04:18,968
the scope of conscious minds.

53
00:04:25,975 --> 00:04:27,559
Something of no importance.

54
00:04:31,313 --> 00:04:33,482
Bring food and wine.

55
00:04:36,652 --> 00:04:38,237
I will greet the morning sun

56
00:04:40,739 --> 00:04:43,033
and the gifts it brings.

57
00:05:14,648 --> 00:05:16,108
Stop!

58
00:05:18,318 --> 00:05:19,403
Second position.

59
00:05:22,531 --> 00:05:23,615
Get started.

60
00:05:31,457 --> 00:05:34,543
-Watch where you're stepping, woman!
-Hold your tongue, wretch!

61
00:05:36,170 --> 00:05:37,171
Logas!

62
00:05:44,678 --> 00:05:45,679
Get it!

63
00:05:46,055 --> 00:05:47,056
Use your head!

64
00:05:47,139 --> 00:05:48,390
Make way! Move!

65
00:05:48,849 --> 00:05:49,850
Yes!

66
00:05:50,309 --> 00:05:51,727
Doctor!

67
00:05:53,937 --> 00:05:55,481
Deploy the men.

68
00:05:56,356 --> 00:05:57,733
I have to talk to you.

69
00:06:01,987 --> 00:06:03,155
At your place.

70
00:06:06,450 --> 00:06:10,496
You act like a child
with urine running down his legs.

71
00:06:12,956 --> 00:06:14,666
I behave like my father would.

72
00:06:15,667 --> 00:06:17,127
In his youth.

73
00:06:17,211 --> 00:06:19,129
I shouldn't have joined your mother.

74
00:06:45,781 --> 00:06:48,158
What's under your feet?

75
00:06:50,369 --> 00:06:53,455
Sacred land,
watered by tears of blood.

76
00:06:54,957 --> 00:06:57,584
No, you damn idiot.

77
00:06:58,752 --> 00:07:02,256
Beneath your feet is an opportunity

78
00:07:03,590 --> 00:07:04,758
to earn money

79
00:07:04,842 --> 00:07:07,845
and to have the honor that such a gift entails.

80
00:07:10,264 --> 00:07:12,599
And glory in the arena.

81
00:07:13,684 --> 00:07:15,435
You are rough bricks,

82
00:07:15,519 --> 00:07:19,148
and with you we will lay the foundations
of the House of Ashur.

83
00:07:19,231 --> 00:07:24,153
To rise, you must tone down
the weaknesses of joy and laughter.

84
00:07:25,112 --> 00:07:29,533
Your flesh must be tempered,
until it reflects the image of the gods.

85
00:07:30,993 --> 00:07:35,372
To honor the man he defeated
the mighty Spartacus himself.

86
00:07:42,796 --> 00:07:44,339
Is the idea unbearable for you?

87
00:07:45,382 --> 00:07:46,925
I ask your forgiveness, Dominus.

88
00:07:47,009 --> 00:07:51,430
Speak freely,
without fear of reprisals.

89
00:07:51,513 --> 00:07:53,390
Voices bend the ear.

90
00:07:54,766 --> 00:07:57,519
Speak and make him straighten up.

91
00:07:57,603 --> 00:08:02,232
They say you threw the spear
against the Rain Bringer

92
00:08:02,316 --> 00:08:04,401
while he had his back to you.

93
00:08:09,531 --> 00:08:14,536
Maybe you think that your Dominus
is an unworthy adversary.

94
00:08:21,835 --> 00:08:22,920
Bring me the gladius.

95
00:08:23,962 --> 00:08:24,963
Daco.

96
00:08:30,260 --> 00:08:31,261
No.

97
00:08:32,012 --> 00:08:34,223
A steel gladius
and not a wooden toy.

98
00:08:59,248 --> 00:09:01,166
The Dominus loses his mind.

99
00:09:01,250 --> 00:09:04,628
No. He corrects those under him.

100
00:09:05,796 --> 00:09:06,797
At that time?

101
00:09:09,925 --> 00:09:11,009
Get started.

102
00:09:15,514 --> 00:09:19,309
The strength of greatness is worth little
ahead of skill, ingenuity

103
00:09:19,393 --> 00:09:21,520
and speed of intent.

104
00:09:31,154 --> 00:09:33,573
He bends to the right,
announcing his move.

105
00:09:46,461 --> 00:09:48,505
He takes a breath before the attack.

106
00:09:49,423 --> 00:09:51,466
Again, announcing his move.

107
00:09:58,265 --> 00:10:03,020
Give in to emotion and you will crash
on the sands of the arena,

108
00:10:03,103 --> 00:10:05,230
with his buttocks offered to the enemy.

109
00:10:14,948 --> 00:10:17,868
He came from Faleria.

110
00:11:05,665 --> 00:11:07,918
I was considered the most treacherous
of the Brotherhood

111
00:11:08,752 --> 00:11:12,798
by the most irritating Doctore
in the service of my Dominus, Batiatus.

112
00:11:14,508 --> 00:11:20,555
Yet even the humblest of gladiators
he is a colossus in front of common men.

113
00:11:23,975 --> 00:11:26,144
Fasten the words to your chest like armour!

114
00:11:28,355 --> 00:11:30,065
Or the blade will find your heart.

115
00:11:35,195 --> 00:11:37,406
Give him burial on the spot,
like this every day

116
00:11:37,489 --> 00:11:39,783
I will water it with bitter tribute
of my bladder.

117
00:11:56,049 --> 00:11:57,884
The delivery of grain was delayed.

118
00:11:58,343 --> 00:12:01,179
The Cilicians attacked the ship
during transportation.

119
00:12:01,263 --> 00:12:03,348
I ordered Messiah
to ration supplies

120
00:12:03,432 --> 00:12:05,100
until we secure more.

121
00:12:05,183 --> 00:12:07,227
And the dispatches from Rome?

122
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:08,979
Have we received any?

123
00:12:10,981 --> 00:12:12,399
No, Dominus.

124
00:12:15,277 --> 00:12:17,988
Take care of today's work, Hilara.

125
00:12:21,241 --> 00:12:25,412
And warn the fine artist to finish
work by sunset!

126
00:12:25,495 --> 00:12:27,539
Or hammer and chisel
they will hit the teacher.

127
00:12:28,248 --> 00:12:29,249
Ashur.

128
00:12:32,586 --> 00:12:34,337
I have to talk to you, damn it.

129
00:12:37,841 --> 00:12:40,218
Have you lost your mind, dammit?

130
00:12:40,302 --> 00:12:44,139
He was a man of great valor,
promising in the arena!

131
00:12:44,222 --> 00:12:47,100
Don't you dare turn to me
like this, you goat!

132
00:12:47,851 --> 00:12:52,898
Hold your tongue and let go
may the fury calm down in a gentle breath.

133
00:12:53,899 --> 00:12:55,108
I ask for forgiveness.

134
00:12:55,192 --> 00:12:57,277
But words carry
the sting of truth.

135
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,654
That man's death will leave its mark.

136
00:12:59,738 --> 00:13:02,365
Thus lessons will be taught to those who remain.

137
00:13:02,449 --> 00:13:05,160
Other, less definitive methods
they can shake them.

138
00:13:05,243 --> 00:13:08,538
Then why didn't you invoke
such mystical powers of persuasion?

139
00:13:09,206 --> 00:13:12,209
My Doctor opens his mouth,
but vomits excrement.

140
00:13:12,292 --> 00:13:14,377
I'm not one of your damn slaves,

141
00:13:14,461 --> 00:13:16,379
and I will not be treated as such.

142
00:13:17,130 --> 00:13:20,675
I am a free man, an honor
earned from my victories in the arena.

143
00:13:20,759 --> 00:13:24,429
No man is truly free
if you still need money.

144
00:13:24,513 --> 00:13:27,224
You are well paid for your services.

145
00:13:27,307 --> 00:13:29,518
But if you believe that a man
of your advanced age

146
00:13:29,601 --> 00:13:32,646
can get a better position
in another ludus,

147
00:13:32,729 --> 00:13:35,440
we can part ways here, dammit.

148
00:13:45,116 --> 00:13:46,326
I don't care about you.

149
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,037
And I don't care about you.

150
00:13:50,539 --> 00:13:53,250
Yet, we are bound by need.

151
00:13:53,333 --> 00:13:55,710
Let's combine our fortunes

152
00:13:55,794 --> 00:14:00,549
and let's trace a path together
towards less stormy relationships.

153
00:14:05,637 --> 00:14:08,974
-Your will, my hands.
-Our hands.

154
00:14:15,146 --> 00:14:17,482
Get ready. We participate in games.

155
00:14:18,275 --> 00:14:20,443
We can present
finally our men?

156
00:14:22,862 --> 00:14:26,491
No. But the words are striking
intentions to the heart.

157
00:15:01,276 --> 00:15:03,111
A damn warhammer?

158
00:15:03,194 --> 00:15:05,780
A Trace should face
the spear of the Hoplomachus

159
00:15:05,864 --> 00:15:07,115
or the sword of Mirmillone.

160
00:15:07,198 --> 00:15:10,035
Observe the crowd. They have no respect
for tradition.

161
00:15:39,230 --> 00:15:41,232
A worthy performance.

162
00:15:41,316 --> 00:15:45,487
But the gods favor us
with an even grander spectacle,

163
00:15:45,570 --> 00:15:48,448
with the Primus closing out the day.

164
00:15:48,531 --> 00:15:52,577
To honor Capua
and the most deserving citizens!

165
00:15:55,538 --> 00:16:00,627
The good Opiter saw fit
present the most glorious offering.

166
00:16:01,378 --> 00:16:05,298
Let Pluto enter, Hoplomachus!

167
00:16:13,598 --> 00:16:16,851
Who will face an opponent
so formidable?

168
00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:20,730
There's only one.

169
00:16:26,486 --> 00:16:28,988
From the House of Proculus…

170
00:16:29,948 --> 00:16:34,327
Let Ammonius come in, Mirmillone!

171
00:16:46,881 --> 00:16:49,300
Your man is well received, Proculus.

172
00:16:49,384 --> 00:16:51,720
He claims only the honors that are due to him.

173
00:16:52,262 --> 00:16:56,433
Maybe Opiter's House
will present a surprising challenge.

174
00:16:56,516 --> 00:17:00,478
May your voice, so full of grace,
rise up to the gods.

175
00:17:10,822 --> 00:17:14,534
May the gods favor our offerings.

176
00:17:15,285 --> 00:17:16,578
Get started!

177
00:17:42,771 --> 00:17:46,191
See how Ammonius attracts the adversary,
giving false hopes.

178
00:17:56,618 --> 00:17:59,454
Not only does he have the strength,
but he has a sharp strategy.

179
00:17:59,537 --> 00:18:01,706
You want to kneel
and pay homage to its member

180
00:18:01,790 --> 00:18:03,500
at the end of the fight?

181
00:18:04,083 --> 00:18:06,169
That man has no rivals in the arena.

182
00:18:06,252 --> 00:18:09,506
It would be an honor to drink
from such a powerful source.

183
00:18:19,140 --> 00:18:22,393
It's imposing. If only we had
an opponent like him.

184
00:18:43,957 --> 00:18:46,584
Only Jupiter himself
could you give us a sample

185
00:18:46,668 --> 00:18:49,170
capable of bending Ammonium.

186
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:57,929
Come, let's go,
and let's see if your eyesight betrays you.

187
00:19:07,981 --> 00:19:10,191
A welcome diversion,

188
00:19:10,275 --> 00:19:12,944
to relieve weight
of dark worries.

189
00:19:13,486 --> 00:19:15,989
It makes your heart happy to hear it, Cossuzia.

190
00:19:16,072 --> 00:19:17,532
-We…
-Aedile.

191
00:19:20,243 --> 00:19:22,787
I would like to seize the moment
and beg for a word.

192
00:19:22,871 --> 00:19:25,498
You approach me on the street, Syrian,
like a common thief?

193
00:19:25,582 --> 00:19:26,791
I ask for forgiveness.

194
00:19:26,875 --> 00:19:29,669
Not being able to get a hearing
through the usual channels,

195
00:19:29,752 --> 00:19:32,046
I decided to take action and search
better prospects.

196
00:19:32,130 --> 00:19:35,633
Man flaunts wild nature
passing it off as a clever strategy.

197
00:19:35,717 --> 00:19:38,219
Let's not respond too harshly.

198
00:19:38,678 --> 00:19:40,722
Didn't help quell the rebellion,

199
00:19:41,097 --> 00:19:42,932
turning against his companions?

200
00:19:43,016 --> 00:19:46,853
So they murmur ready lips
and feverish tongue.

201
00:19:46,936 --> 00:19:48,605
I serve the Republic.

202
00:19:48,688 --> 00:19:51,274
Like my husband, sometimes to the point of getting lost.

203
00:19:51,357 --> 00:19:53,818
His absence is felt deeply.

204
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:56,279
Are his duties keeping him in Rome?

205
00:19:56,362 --> 00:20:01,200
He advises Pompey in an attempt to appease
tense relations with Crassus.

206
00:20:01,284 --> 00:20:03,244
Crassus is still your patron,
isn't it true?

207
00:20:03,328 --> 00:20:05,914
He gave you the position
and the ludus of Batiatus.

208
00:20:05,997 --> 00:20:09,334
I am very fortunate for the services rendered.

209
00:20:09,417 --> 00:20:11,878
Then you will certainly have
his attention in this regard.

210
00:20:11,961 --> 00:20:15,048
I sent messages
regarding a number of urgent issues,

211
00:20:15,131 --> 00:20:16,758
including no less

212
00:20:16,841 --> 00:20:20,094
the reconstruction of a majestic arena,
reduced to ruins by Spartacus.

213
00:20:20,178 --> 00:20:21,804
Yes. Certainly a noble ideal.

214
00:20:23,848 --> 00:20:27,393
Give Crassus our best wishes
for lasting prosperity.

215
00:20:31,898 --> 00:20:33,733
If you proclaim them vigorously,

216
00:20:33,816 --> 00:20:36,110
perhaps they will reach as far as Rome.

217
00:20:41,741 --> 00:20:42,909
Uvid.

218
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:50,583
Edile, I would like to address the issue
position in future games.

219
00:20:50,667 --> 00:20:52,168
Position?

220
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:55,797
They say your men are inferior.

221
00:20:55,880 --> 00:21:00,051
I'm as good as any man
Proculus can offer.

222
00:21:00,134 --> 00:21:04,263
Korris dares to interfere,
but he tells the truth.

223
00:21:04,347 --> 00:21:07,684
We concede to the Syrian
a reward worthy of its value.

224
00:21:07,767 --> 00:21:10,895
If my desire doesn't move you,
do it for my husband's honor.

225
00:21:11,562 --> 00:21:12,897
Very good.

226
00:21:12,981 --> 00:21:16,818
A man who will be introduced in the middle of the month
for the celebration of Liber Pater.

227
00:21:17,902 --> 00:21:20,863
-I will look forward to that day.
-Me too.

228
00:21:33,251 --> 00:21:34,377
Didn't I tell you?

229
00:21:34,460 --> 00:21:36,879
We have earned a position.

230
00:21:36,963 --> 00:21:39,716
If you bow even more,
you will fill your mouth with dirt.

231
00:21:39,799 --> 00:21:41,968
I would do it until I burst
to take advantage of it.

232
00:21:42,051 --> 00:21:44,595
Who among us is the most hardened?

233
00:21:44,679 --> 00:21:46,556
Rhodium. Without a doubt, dammit.

234
00:21:46,639 --> 00:21:48,683
Rhodium? And who is he?

235
00:21:48,766 --> 00:21:50,351
The one you buried.

236
00:22:01,821 --> 00:22:06,117
There was no need to say it
before I beat him to death?

237
00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,286
I mentioned his absence
it would have weighed.

238
00:22:09,162 --> 00:22:11,164
Once done.

239
00:22:11,247 --> 00:22:14,459
I apologize for not predicting
that you would have lost your mind

240
00:22:14,542 --> 00:22:17,045
and took his life for a jug of wine!

241
00:22:21,174 --> 00:22:24,594
We have an opportunity,
Korris, and we need to get her.

242
00:22:31,851 --> 00:22:34,145
Put man against man
at the break of dawn.

243
00:22:34,645 --> 00:22:38,191
Who will win by sunset
he will be the champion of the arena.

244
00:22:39,192 --> 00:22:40,735
-Your will.
-Go.

245
00:22:42,070 --> 00:22:43,780
-Dominus?
-What is it?

246
00:22:44,697 --> 00:22:45,865
My apologies.

247
00:22:46,657 --> 00:22:48,117
I thought you wanted to eat.

248
00:22:49,619 --> 00:22:53,790
And maybe a hot bath…
to calm the mood.

249
00:22:56,292 --> 00:22:58,294
Am I really that despicable?

250
00:22:58,377 --> 00:22:59,879
For a raging bull?

251
00:23:01,005 --> 00:23:02,090
No.

252
00:23:04,801 --> 00:23:10,681
Guide me and I will try not to hurt
with the wandering horn.

253
00:23:23,444 --> 00:23:25,363
What restless thoughts oppress you?

254
00:23:26,531 --> 00:23:27,907
Nobody that matters.

255
00:23:29,534 --> 00:23:30,827
Put them on the scale

256
00:23:32,161 --> 00:23:34,205
and let one eye
judge less harshly.

257
00:23:36,541 --> 00:23:39,710
I spent many nights in my cell
under our ludus,

258
00:23:40,962 --> 00:23:45,049
dreaming of one day
in which I would have had the title of Dominus,

259
00:23:47,218 --> 00:23:50,429
unaware of the weight
that such a title entailed.

260
00:23:53,349 --> 00:23:55,601
The previous Dominus
Did he share his thoughts?

261
00:23:57,478 --> 00:23:58,729
Batiatus?

262
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,566
That man was constantly
under pressure,

263
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:06,779
as if he believed that the gods
were always ready to sodomize him.

264
00:24:10,867 --> 00:24:12,535
And how did he survive?

265
00:24:14,537 --> 00:24:16,706
With cunning and deception.

266
00:24:20,751 --> 00:24:24,630
My support every step of the way.

267
00:24:27,675 --> 00:24:32,847
You will recognize the power
of your own advice,

268
00:24:38,936 --> 00:24:41,647
and your manhood
will support you on your determined path.

269
00:24:57,872 --> 00:24:59,790
Do I summon Messiah to join us?

270
00:25:02,501 --> 00:25:04,629
I crave a sweeter nectar

271
00:25:06,839 --> 00:25:08,841
to remove the bitter taste of today

272
00:25:11,135 --> 00:25:12,470
from my mouth.

273
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:26,234
Let us bless the gods.

274
00:25:26,317 --> 00:25:28,819
We are destined for the arena.

275
00:25:30,321 --> 00:25:32,031
You are doomed to fail, Erato.

276
00:25:33,074 --> 00:25:34,450
You're no better off.

277
00:25:34,533 --> 00:25:35,701
Come close to my ass,

278
00:25:35,785 --> 00:25:39,705
so as to receive more suffocating breath
than what already comes out of your mouth!

279
00:25:39,789 --> 00:25:40,998
Tarchon.

280
00:25:42,083 --> 00:25:44,335
The boy lacks sense and attention.

281
00:25:44,961 --> 00:25:48,923
You didn't get into an argument
during today's training?

282
00:25:49,006 --> 00:25:51,050
Passions overwhelmed by the moment.

283
00:25:51,133 --> 00:25:53,469
I shouldn't have gotten angry
with my brothers.

284
00:25:54,553 --> 00:25:57,473
When the real enemy is the Romans.

285
00:25:57,556 --> 00:25:59,642
-Logas!
-Let him talk.

286
00:25:59,725 --> 00:26:00,893
For what purpose?

287
00:26:00,977 --> 00:26:05,231
If our Dominus hears the lament,
we're done.

288
00:26:06,524 --> 00:26:08,192
The Syrian?

289
00:26:08,276 --> 00:26:10,528
He is a traitor to the Brotherhood.

290
00:26:10,611 --> 00:26:12,738
Spartacus knew this well.

291
00:26:12,822 --> 00:26:16,617
You will have us crucified along the Appian Way!

292
00:26:16,701 --> 00:26:19,203
I would like to escape instead
to the heel that oppresses us.

293
00:26:19,954 --> 00:26:23,541
What Spartacus started
he lives in the spirit of those who followed him.

294
00:26:23,624 --> 00:26:28,170
And it is said that he himself is still alive.

295
00:26:29,171 --> 00:26:30,172
If it were,

296
00:26:30,256 --> 00:26:32,717
the Rain Bringer would show himself.

297
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:38,306
No. It's more likely
may that damned man sleep forever

298
00:26:38,389 --> 00:26:40,224
in unknown graves under putrid earth.

299
00:26:42,101 --> 00:26:44,895
Tarchon, come with me,

300
00:26:44,979 --> 00:26:47,481
Let's turn our backs on such nonsense.

301
00:26:51,944 --> 00:26:53,696
Do you clear out the bathroom?

302
00:26:53,779 --> 00:26:55,781
Better without them.

303
00:26:56,449 --> 00:27:01,620
The lesson of Spartacus remains clear
to those who dare to make it their own.

304
00:27:01,704 --> 00:27:04,915
What lesson would that be?
End up skewered by a spear?

305
00:27:04,999 --> 00:27:06,709
That freedom has immense value,

306
00:27:06,792 --> 00:27:09,712
and the same goes for those who take their own lives
to the oppressors.

307
00:27:09,795 --> 00:27:14,258
Who stands on the sands of the arena
will be able, triumphing,

308
00:27:14,884 --> 00:27:17,511
shed the blood of our Dominus.

309
00:27:18,262 --> 00:27:21,098
And of every Roman
whose feet he obsequiously licks.

310
00:27:29,732 --> 00:27:32,568
You are granted the greatest honor,

311
00:27:32,651 --> 00:27:35,529
finally descend into the arena.

312
00:27:36,572 --> 00:27:39,575
To face the detestable Proculus
and his men.

313
00:27:40,993 --> 00:27:41,994
Some

314
00:27:42,745 --> 00:27:46,248
they say you have been blessed
from the gods.

315
00:27:47,625 --> 00:27:49,502
Cursed be the gods!

316
00:27:50,252 --> 00:27:53,464
They don't care at all
of men's affairs,

317
00:27:53,547 --> 00:27:56,967
something I have witnessed countless times
as a gladiator,

318
00:27:57,927 --> 00:28:01,389
soldier and free man.

319
00:28:03,099 --> 00:28:06,977
We forge our own destiny
with our hands,

320
00:28:07,895 --> 00:28:10,648
with our will and with our blood!

321
00:28:11,232 --> 00:28:15,069
Prove yourselves worthy, not before Jupiter
or to his whims,

322
00:28:16,070 --> 00:28:17,279
but in front of yourselves.

323
00:28:20,741 --> 00:28:22,118
And in front of your Dominus.

324
00:28:48,436 --> 00:28:49,520
Doctor.

325
00:28:59,405 --> 00:29:00,406
Salvio.

326
00:29:03,909 --> 00:29:05,161
Edil.

327
00:29:13,419 --> 00:29:14,503
Get started!

328
00:29:34,523 --> 00:29:36,942
Illugro! I sign!

329
00:29:48,454 --> 00:29:50,164
Logas! Helium!

330
00:29:55,002 --> 00:29:56,879
Erato! Ephesian!

331
00:30:08,224 --> 00:30:10,184
Celado! Tarchon!

332
00:30:26,283 --> 00:30:28,244
Celado, Logas.

333
00:30:29,286 --> 00:30:31,080
Take your position for the final race.

334
00:30:55,271 --> 00:30:59,608
You are superior to everyone in the House of Ashur.

335
00:30:59,692 --> 00:31:01,860
Logas proved himself worthy of the arena.

336
00:31:02,695 --> 00:31:04,905
It wasn't you who spoke of sacred land,

337
00:31:04,989 --> 00:31:06,448
bathed in tears of blood?

338
00:31:07,199 --> 00:31:08,951
Yes, Dominus.

339
00:31:09,034 --> 00:31:10,703
Put your thoughts aside.

340
00:31:11,579 --> 00:31:14,164
Proculus will not risk humiliation.

341
00:31:14,248 --> 00:31:16,792
He will look for an opponent
capable of causing lethal wounds.

342
00:31:18,377 --> 00:31:20,754
Maybe even the champion,
Ammonius, in person.

343
00:31:25,968 --> 00:31:30,723
I will defeat all those before me,
without distinction of name or title.

344
00:31:37,187 --> 00:31:40,274
Do it and you will be rewarded
for your effort.

345
00:32:28,697 --> 00:32:30,991
The crowd prefers again
yours, Proculus.

346
00:32:31,075 --> 00:32:32,117
Thank you.

347
00:32:32,201 --> 00:32:34,411
But I'm afraid the good Opiter
he will lose every coin

348
00:32:34,495 --> 00:32:36,455
in an attempt to replenish his ludus.

349
00:32:36,997 --> 00:32:39,750
Well, your luck might shift
in my favor.

350
00:32:39,833 --> 00:32:41,585
The way I see it, yes.

351
00:32:42,544 --> 00:32:44,296
The sun is nearing its peak.

352
00:32:45,130 --> 00:32:48,050
And with it, the promise
of the most awaited race.

353
00:32:48,133 --> 00:32:51,470
May the gods grant a spectacle
capable of shaking the sky itself.

354
00:32:58,394 --> 00:32:59,978
Prepare the men.

355
00:33:00,062 --> 00:33:02,523
And the first victor of the House of Ashur.

356
00:33:34,805 --> 00:33:36,598
It's time to embrace your destiny.

357
00:33:37,641 --> 00:33:39,435
I dreamed about it for a long time.

358
00:33:39,518 --> 00:33:41,979
I passed it all on to you
in the days granted to us.

359
00:33:42,563 --> 00:33:44,857
Honor the ludus, Logas.

360
00:33:45,774 --> 00:33:48,068
If the gods will, welcome the afterlife

361
00:33:48,152 --> 00:33:50,362
with worthy dignity
of our brotherhood.

362
00:33:51,822 --> 00:33:54,199
I won't be the one to fall today.

363
00:34:16,638 --> 00:34:17,639
How are you?

364
00:34:17,723 --> 00:34:19,850
Filled with bloodlust.

365
00:34:19,933 --> 00:34:21,643
The gods may still bless us.

366
00:34:21,727 --> 00:34:23,187
I don't trust them,

367
00:34:23,270 --> 00:34:25,481
but I would gladly caress the fascinum

368
00:34:25,564 --> 00:34:27,232
if it guaranteed us the advantage.

369
00:34:27,316 --> 00:34:28,817
They heard your plea.

370
00:34:28,901 --> 00:34:31,779
Gabinius has returned from Rome
to testify to our efforts.

371
00:34:33,697 --> 00:34:36,784
Gabinio, honor us
of an unexpected presence.

372
00:34:36,867 --> 00:34:40,913
I didn't expect it
to see you return so soon.

373
00:34:40,996 --> 00:34:43,707
The heart could not bear it
another fleeting moment

374
00:34:43,791 --> 00:34:45,125
away from your embrace.

375
00:34:46,251 --> 00:34:47,336
I ask for forgiveness.

376
00:34:47,961 --> 00:34:49,338
What news is coming from Rome?

377
00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:51,089
None that comforts.

378
00:34:51,173 --> 00:34:56,470
I asked Pompeo to withdraw
his troops beyond the city walls.

379
00:34:56,553 --> 00:34:59,932
And Crassus to do the same.

380
00:35:00,015 --> 00:35:02,851
A sensible way to tone it down
the tension that mounts.

381
00:35:02,935 --> 00:35:04,645
Reason has been lost.

382
00:35:04,728 --> 00:35:07,231
The lost love between the two consuls
in recent months

383
00:35:07,314 --> 00:35:10,400
It creates too big a gap
to be filled with simple words.

384
00:35:10,484 --> 00:35:13,779
Nothing would be enough
to trigger civil war.

385
00:35:13,862 --> 00:35:18,200
Replace anxiety for the uncertain tomorrow
with the joy of the present.

386
00:35:18,742 --> 00:35:22,412
-Sage advice for everyone present.
-And well received.

387
00:35:23,080 --> 00:35:24,915
Didn't Viridia accompany you?

388
00:35:24,998 --> 00:35:27,751
Games are just useful
to reopen old wounds.

389
00:35:28,377 --> 00:35:30,629
I bring gifts from Rome to help her heal.

390
00:35:31,088 --> 00:35:33,882
We don't wrap the day
in a veil of sadness.

391
00:35:33,966 --> 00:35:35,259
I would like to drink some wine.

392
00:35:35,342 --> 00:35:36,927
And hear the clash of blades.

393
00:35:37,761 --> 00:35:39,721
May your wish be fulfilled.

394
00:35:46,770 --> 00:35:48,522
He finally speaks, dammit.

395
00:35:49,106 --> 00:35:54,403
Citizens of Capua,
honored guests and beloved husbands.

396
00:35:55,279 --> 00:36:01,201
The Liber Pater, benevolent god who honors us
with the sweet discovery of honey

397
00:36:01,827 --> 00:36:06,373
and blesses us with fertility, harvests

398
00:36:06,790 --> 00:36:07,916
and wine,

399
00:36:13,046 --> 00:36:18,594
wanted to offer
an extraordinary show

400
00:36:19,428 --> 00:36:22,431
to all faithful worshippers.

401
00:36:23,515 --> 00:36:27,144
For the first time in all history,

402
00:36:27,978 --> 00:36:31,273
the House of Ashur appears in the arena.

403
00:36:35,736 --> 00:36:38,697
And who will present the Syrian?

404
00:36:39,740 --> 00:36:41,408
Let him come in…

405
00:36:50,250 --> 00:36:51,251
Logas.

406
00:36:52,127 --> 00:36:55,213
Let Logas come in! Mirmillone!

407
00:37:19,863 --> 00:37:21,114
A memorable welcome.

408
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:24,910
The crowd sees greatness
only at the end of the fight.

409
00:37:24,993 --> 00:37:26,745
It seems to me that they see something else entirely.

410
00:37:30,290 --> 00:37:32,626
And who will he face
such a formidable opponent?

411
00:37:33,210 --> 00:37:35,837
Good Proculus chose carefully.

412
00:37:36,713 --> 00:37:39,466
Enter the Ferox Brothers.

413
00:37:39,549 --> 00:37:42,636
Thrax, Myrmillone and Hoplomachus!

414
00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,556
Will Logas face three men?

415
00:37:59,111 --> 00:38:01,071
What's going on, dammit?

416
00:38:08,954 --> 00:38:10,914
The farce distracts from the duel.

417
00:38:11,456 --> 00:38:12,833
It's a little distraction.

418
00:38:12,916 --> 00:38:15,919
Look how the crowd is excited about it.

419
00:38:20,465 --> 00:38:22,384
What is he wearing on his belt?

420
00:38:22,467 --> 00:38:26,722
Trophies taken from lives
that he reclaimed in the arena and beyond.

421
00:38:39,401 --> 00:38:43,363
That's your sacrifice
find favor with the gods.

422
00:38:46,033 --> 00:38:47,034
Get started!

423
00:39:00,839 --> 00:39:02,132
Satyr strikes first.

424
00:39:06,928 --> 00:39:09,389
Remember the training!
They are but men!

425
00:39:09,639 --> 00:39:10,640
They are aborted demons

426
00:39:10,724 --> 00:39:13,310
by a poisonous whore from the underworld.

427
00:39:34,039 --> 00:39:36,833
I pray that the man of the Syrian
don't fall too quickly.

428
00:39:36,917 --> 00:39:38,543
I wish this moment would last.

429
00:39:42,172 --> 00:39:43,340
Let's kill the damned one!

430
00:40:00,398 --> 00:40:01,399
Yes!

431
00:40:02,818 --> 00:40:03,985
Brother!

432
00:40:07,656 --> 00:40:08,657
Balbo!

433
00:40:11,326 --> 00:40:14,371
Let's see how you do
without damn brothers, insect.

434
00:40:27,884 --> 00:40:30,512
Is this the best that Proculus can offer?

435
00:40:38,103 --> 00:40:40,355
My foul is a bigger threat.

436
00:40:56,997 --> 00:40:58,790
Curse!

437
00:41:31,990 --> 00:41:33,074
One day…

438
00:41:48,965 --> 00:41:50,342
Yes!

439
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,356
Yes!

440
00:42:05,357 --> 00:42:09,903
Lying on the ground, no one is worth more than us!

441
00:42:36,137 --> 00:42:39,724
They laugh. Of us, damn it.

442
00:42:39,808 --> 00:42:42,769
Sit down, damn it.

443
00:42:46,189 --> 00:42:47,983
Go back to your seat.

444
00:42:48,358 --> 00:42:50,986
You want us to stay here
to submerge us in mockery?

445
00:42:51,069 --> 00:42:53,071
They want us to leave.

446
00:42:54,614 --> 00:42:57,200
They will not have this satisfaction.

447
00:43:00,912 --> 00:43:01,913
I apologize.

448
00:43:01,997 --> 00:43:05,041
Urgent business forces me
to push me away, Cossuzia.

449
00:43:07,711 --> 00:43:09,587
The day is not over.

450
00:43:09,671 --> 00:43:12,090
I preside as Liber Pater.
I wish to stay.

451
00:43:12,173 --> 00:43:13,174
I do not.

452
00:43:14,134 --> 00:43:15,468
What changed your mood?

453
00:43:16,553 --> 00:43:20,056
Certainly not the laughter
behind that Syrian toad.

454
00:43:20,473 --> 00:43:23,101
That "toad" is the toy
of the damned Marcus Crassus!

455
00:43:24,352 --> 00:43:26,855
I try to calm the resentment

456
00:43:26,938 --> 00:43:30,233
between him and Pompey,
while my wife fans the flames.

457
00:43:30,317 --> 00:43:32,110
Forgive us, Gabinio, we didn't think...

458
00:43:32,193 --> 00:43:33,194
No, in fact.

459
00:43:33,987 --> 00:43:36,364
If Crassus still cared
the fate of the Syrian,

460
00:43:36,448 --> 00:43:38,533
intentions would be made known.

461
00:43:38,616 --> 00:43:40,410
It has now been forgotten.

462
00:43:40,493 --> 00:43:42,871
And it will soon vanish from Capua

463
00:43:42,954 --> 00:43:46,207
like an unpleasant memory
as time goes by.

464
00:43:46,916 --> 00:43:48,626
I pray the words are true.

465
00:43:49,669 --> 00:43:50,754
You come.

466
00:43:54,049 --> 00:43:57,052
Thanks for the pleasant day.

467
00:44:34,172 --> 00:44:38,343
Be witnesses of speed
and ferocity unmatched in the arena!

468
00:44:40,011 --> 00:44:41,012
Annoying insect!

469
00:44:47,977 --> 00:44:50,897
Finally the most honored guest arrives.

470
00:44:50,980 --> 00:44:56,111
Behold the mighty Syrian,
Dominus of the House of Donkeys.

471
00:45:07,705 --> 00:45:08,873
Don't pay attention to him.

472
00:45:08,957 --> 00:45:13,044
Satyr drinks with virile fullness,
beyond the limits of its tiny chalice.

473
00:45:13,128 --> 00:45:16,089
Such a weak voice
to be barely perceived.

474
00:45:16,172 --> 00:45:21,469
But stronger than your man in the arena, with
his throat slit by a tiny hand.

475
00:45:21,845 --> 00:45:24,222
I will compensate your loss

476
00:45:24,305 --> 00:45:27,809
in the hope that the joke
was understood as such.

477
00:45:28,685 --> 00:45:30,728
I recognize the spirit of the intention.

478
00:45:31,354 --> 00:45:32,480
I am grateful to you.

479
00:45:33,314 --> 00:45:36,401
I would not want Crassus
thought differently.

480
00:45:36,484 --> 00:45:38,695
There is no reason to alarm him
for these matters.

481
00:45:39,446 --> 00:45:40,613
We agree.

482
00:45:40,697 --> 00:45:44,325
Perhaps a common understanding is still possible.

483
00:45:44,409 --> 00:45:48,329
Is the man incapable of speaking out?

484
00:45:49,372 --> 00:45:50,582
I ask for forgiveness.

485
00:45:50,665 --> 00:45:55,670
I will speak clearly,
for those who are slow in understanding.

486
00:45:56,129 --> 00:45:58,590
I tolerated the offense without complaint.

487
00:45:58,673 --> 00:46:02,343
However, to the House of Ashur
no real challenge was allowed.

488
00:46:02,427 --> 00:46:04,846
Do you want a position in the arena?

489
00:46:04,929 --> 00:46:07,223
The crowd gets tired of the usual meal.

490
00:46:07,307 --> 00:46:10,310
They satisfy their hunger with new and exotic foods.

491
00:46:10,393 --> 00:46:13,062
Maybe if you acquired
something new to offer.

492
00:46:13,146 --> 00:46:16,816
I will redouble my efforts
to find wonders never seen,

493
00:46:16,900 --> 00:46:18,985
and get revenge one day.

494
00:46:19,068 --> 00:46:21,196
Much awaited thing.

495
00:46:24,532 --> 00:46:25,658
Erennio has arrived.

496
00:46:25,742 --> 00:46:28,745
Let's say goodbye to him, before Opiter
you bore him to an untimely death.

497
00:46:30,622 --> 00:46:34,250
Herennius, Opiter and his noble wife
did they offer you wine?

498
00:46:34,334 --> 00:46:35,627
How are you?

499
00:46:35,710 --> 00:46:40,757
There was a time when such an insult
it would be paid in blood.

500
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:44,135
Maybe the sun could reverse course
and take us back to that moment.

501
00:46:45,595 --> 00:46:49,641
Force. We need men who are up to it
of the purpose to regain advantage.

502
00:46:51,851 --> 00:46:54,229
We have to train men
as big as children now?

503
00:46:54,312 --> 00:46:56,314
I would give the sword in the hand of a newborn baby,

504
00:46:56,397 --> 00:46:57,732
if the crowd wanted it.

505
00:46:57,815 --> 00:47:01,152
The slave trader Rusinio,
here in Capua, there is nothing exotic about it.

506
00:47:01,236 --> 00:47:04,447
Then we will aim further.
In Neapolis or Cuma.

507
00:47:04,906 --> 00:47:09,202
And pray to the gods that you continue to invoke
that they finally show up.

508
00:47:26,427 --> 00:47:29,389
You will not see better specimens
in the Republic.

509
00:47:29,847 --> 00:47:33,726
Every man is fresh from a journey
across the Tyrrhenian Sea.

510
00:47:33,810 --> 00:47:37,230
Savor the intoxicating essence
of victories to come in the arena.

511
00:47:38,064 --> 00:47:41,067
From upset insides I brought out
more worthy creatures.

512
00:47:42,110 --> 00:47:44,612
And the Rooster? It looks promising.

513
00:47:45,738 --> 00:47:48,741
We already own a dozen of them,
carved in his own image.

514
00:47:49,534 --> 00:47:52,829
We must present unknown delights
to inflame the crowd.

515
00:47:53,454 --> 00:47:55,873
And attract the attention of the damned Aedile.

516
00:47:56,374 --> 00:47:59,252
-When will the next shipment arrive?
-By the end of the month.

517
00:47:59,335 --> 00:48:03,631
You hand me a cup of excrement
and you expect me to ask for more?

518
00:48:04,048 --> 00:48:05,216
Let's go to Cuma.

519
00:48:05,300 --> 00:48:07,677
And we hope for fragrant opportunities.

520
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,013
You look for treasures in a sow's anus.

521
00:48:10,096 --> 00:48:12,307
And I'd stick my whole arm in it
to find them.

522
00:48:12,390 --> 00:48:14,767
Cuma will offer even less.

523
00:48:14,851 --> 00:48:16,561
We should return to Capua.

524
00:48:53,056 --> 00:48:56,142
Move and you will lose your life.

525
00:48:56,225 --> 00:48:57,477
Stopped!

526
00:49:01,314 --> 00:49:04,901
This seems to have caused some unpleasantness
complications to your day.

527
00:49:04,984 --> 00:49:08,321
I'll push her away
to avoid further embarrassment.

528
00:49:08,404 --> 00:49:09,906
He hit a Roman.

529
00:49:09,989 --> 00:49:11,658
I'll take her life, damn it!

530
00:49:11,741 --> 00:49:14,118
Let us not fall into bloody disagreements.

531
00:49:14,202 --> 00:49:15,244
Give up, damn you!

532
00:49:15,328 --> 00:49:18,873
The cursed present here
he has the favor of Marcus Licinius Crassus

533
00:49:18,956 --> 00:49:20,291
co-consul of Rome.

534
00:49:20,375 --> 00:49:22,835
I am his man in Capua.

535
00:49:22,919 --> 00:49:28,675
Put your hands on me or whoever works
for me and word of the offense will reach him.

536
00:49:28,758 --> 00:49:29,967
You are the Syrian

537
00:49:30,051 --> 00:49:32,637
who helped the Republic
against Spartacus the rebel?

538
00:49:34,639 --> 00:49:36,057
That's right.

539
00:49:37,016 --> 00:49:40,061
This should be enough
to relieve wounded pride.

540
00:49:43,648 --> 00:49:46,317
We support Crassus
against the butcher Pompeo.

541
00:49:46,401 --> 00:49:48,486
Tell him about our loyalty, if you can.

542
00:49:53,282 --> 00:49:54,992
Everyone in training! After you!

543
00:49:55,618 --> 00:49:57,954
You waste money on another slave
for the house?

544
00:49:58,454 --> 00:50:02,917
No, the gods I don't believe in
present unexpected gifts.

545
00:50:03,710 --> 00:50:05,753
Including one
which I would like to use to my advantage.

546
00:50:06,671 --> 00:50:07,755
Move.

547
00:50:10,007 --> 00:50:12,260
You're really out of your mind, dammit.

548
00:50:12,343 --> 00:50:14,095
I rise above lesser minds.

549
00:50:14,178 --> 00:50:17,390
You would like me to train
a woman to fight in the arena?

550
00:50:17,473 --> 00:50:19,559
A woman? In the arena?

551
00:50:19,642 --> 00:50:21,352
The very essence of perversion.

552
00:50:21,436 --> 00:50:23,938
Perversion not yet tasted
by a hungry crowd.

553
00:50:24,021 --> 00:50:26,858
Impossible to ignore,
it will not go unnoticed.

554
00:50:27,650 --> 00:50:31,070
Hilara would have the same chances
against a damned gladiator.

555
00:50:31,154 --> 00:50:35,158
I've met a lot of damn women
more dangerous than men.

556
00:50:35,241 --> 00:50:37,243
Among the ranks of Spartacus
and his rebels,

557
00:50:37,326 --> 00:50:41,956
they were ferocious
like the most virile men, damn it.

558
00:50:44,459 --> 00:50:45,793
Is this your decision?

559
00:50:49,338 --> 00:50:52,091
Get her washed and bring her
in the administration rooms.

560
00:50:53,551 --> 00:50:56,345
We look to the glorious future.

561
00:51:33,382 --> 00:51:37,345
-Have you eaten?
-Like a jackal on a wounded prey.

562
00:51:37,428 --> 00:51:38,971
Who could blame her?

563
00:51:39,055 --> 00:51:42,266
Traveling in the belly of a ship
of slaves does not offer many comforts.

564
00:51:42,350 --> 00:51:44,852
As you can confirm
anyone who survived.

565
00:51:48,648 --> 00:51:50,608
Send it to Rome
at the first light of dawn.

566
00:51:50,691 --> 00:51:55,822
To be delivered to anyone
if not to Crassus himself.

567
00:51:56,113 --> 00:51:57,198
Yes, Dominus.

568
00:52:02,370 --> 00:52:04,163
Do you speak our language?

569
00:52:05,456 --> 00:52:07,708
Come closer. I want to observe you closely.

570
00:52:09,752 --> 00:52:12,338
You come. I'm not hostile,

571
00:52:12,421 --> 00:52:14,799
and I expect the same from you.

572
00:52:25,351 --> 00:52:27,186
What name do you have?

573
00:52:28,938 --> 00:52:29,981
Neferet.

574
00:52:30,606 --> 00:52:31,691
Neferet?

575
00:52:32,525 --> 00:52:33,776
Pleasant on the tongue.

576
00:52:33,860 --> 00:52:35,111
Not to the Roman ear.

577
00:52:35,194 --> 00:52:38,364
They want more familiar names.

578
00:52:38,447 --> 00:52:41,617
Yes. A moving reflection
of ancient legends

579
00:52:41,701 --> 00:52:45,204
and impossible feats of tradition.

580
00:52:49,542 --> 00:52:50,835
Achillia.

581
00:52:51,919 --> 00:52:54,046
The name you will bear from today on.

582
00:52:54,672 --> 00:52:55,756
Achillia.

583
00:52:56,507 --> 00:52:58,342
Imagine the crowd chanting this name.

584
00:52:58,426 --> 00:53:01,888
Their cry attacks the heavens in your honor.

585
00:53:03,180 --> 00:53:04,181
Crowd?

586
00:53:04,265 --> 00:53:06,225
You are not without skill
in combat.

587
00:53:06,309 --> 00:53:08,769
You made a show of it
on the coasts of Neapolis.

588
00:53:08,853 --> 00:53:10,938
Yet you are like a newly forged blade.

589
00:53:11,564 --> 00:53:12,690
The sound of steel,

590
00:53:14,692 --> 00:53:16,277
but with a beveled edge.

591
00:53:17,486 --> 00:53:20,281
I'll refine you until you're lethal,

592
00:53:20,364 --> 00:53:25,745
and I will send you to the sands of the arena
to the roar of the audience.

593
00:53:27,538 --> 00:53:28,998
And you will be able to reap the fruits,

594
00:53:30,458 --> 00:53:32,043
admiration pays.

595
00:53:41,344 --> 00:53:43,346
Do these fruits include other wine?

596
00:53:45,890 --> 00:53:48,476
Enough to drown the gods,
if you wish.

597
00:53:48,809 --> 00:53:50,603
You just have to obey orders.

598
00:53:53,731 --> 00:53:56,275
Take one step and he will lose his life.

599
00:53:56,359 --> 00:53:58,819
Stay still! Curse!

600
00:53:58,903 --> 00:54:00,196
Free him!

601
00:54:00,279 --> 00:54:01,989
There is no escape from these walls.

602
00:54:02,073 --> 00:54:03,783
Then we will fall together.

603
00:54:03,866 --> 00:54:06,410
I will not die a slave
of men like you, damn it.

604
00:54:06,494 --> 00:54:09,330
We are all slaves
of those who have the means and the position,

605
00:54:09,413 --> 00:54:11,832
and moves us like pawns
on the gaming table,

606
00:54:11,916 --> 00:54:13,918
sacrificed by whim or necessity.

607
00:54:14,001 --> 00:54:17,463
Speak clearly, while you still have
the throat to form words.

608
00:54:17,546 --> 00:54:20,883
Even if you run away from here,
you will never be truly free.

609
00:54:20,967 --> 00:54:24,637
They will hunt you down for such an offense
and they will end your life.

610
00:54:24,720 --> 00:54:27,306
A more desirable destiny
of one in chains.

611
00:54:27,390 --> 00:54:28,933
There is another way.

612
00:54:30,017 --> 00:54:32,812
Pledge allegiance. Call me Dominus
and fight in the arena.

613
00:54:33,396 --> 00:54:35,064
Earn your freedom on the sand.

614
00:54:35,815 --> 00:54:39,652
The freedom that the Romans
they can never take you away.

615
00:54:44,281 --> 00:54:45,574
Is something like this possible?

616
00:54:46,742 --> 00:54:48,619
I am proof of this.

617
00:54:49,412 --> 00:54:52,373
Let's leave history behind

618
00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:56,669
and we embrace an unknown tomorrow.

619
00:55:00,840 --> 00:55:01,924
Leave her!

620
00:55:04,343 --> 00:55:05,761
We made a deal.

621
00:55:11,350 --> 00:55:12,435
Right?

622
00:55:30,119 --> 00:55:31,245
Dominus.
