[The Stig]

Sextus arrives and asks to speak with the Senator.

[Okmin]

He is shown in.

[The Stig]

"Greetings, Senator. I trust the day finds you well. What do you think of Rome?"

[Okmin]

"Rome is a wonderful city, but I find the Capitoline a bit too crowded to live on. As you probably guessed." He gestures towards a balcony overlooking the river-side of the Aventine hill. "But welcome! My name is Gaius Marius Aquila. And you are...?"

[The Stig]

"Sextus. Sextus Tuccius Alexander. I actually was more interested in your political opinion. do you think anything needs changing?"

While speaking with Aquila, Sextus feels emotions he didn't know he had.

[Okmin]

A slave brings in some wine.

"The people should receive more from the Senate."

[Sonke]

Publilus arrives to speak with Gaius.

[Okmin]

He is shown in and offered wine.

[Sonke]

''You are very generous Senator. I have come to meet other Senators.''

[Okmin]

"Then I should probably introduce myself. Gaius Marius Aquila, hopefully future consul."

[Sonke]

''Optimism is good. I hope I'll see you as Consul. Tell me what do you hope to accomplish in Rome.''

[Okmin]

"Making money would be good." Aquila laughs. "But I do want to expand our borders and build up the city... maybe the provinces too."

[Lanthe]

Slave arrives with a scroll. He stops at the gates and gives the invitation to the household slave to bring it to their master

Esteemed senator, you and your family has been invited to dinner at the Villa of Quintilii. We hope that you would dress according to the traditions, but due the recent liberal movements we have set the dresscode to be free.

We await you to particitipate at the time included in this invite.

[Sonke]

''You are ambitious, but what about the People of Rome?''

[ForteS]

Cornelius and Aquilinus arrive to speak with the Senator.

[Okmin]

''You are ambitious, but what about the People of Rome?''

"Do they not also benefit from improvements to roads, trade, baths, and such?" Aquila smiled. "Of course I wish to improve the lives of all Romans."

Cornelius and Aquilinus arrive to speak with the Senator.

They are shown in.

[Sonke]

''As do we all.''
