Dust rises in the arena of the Coliseum, mingling with the roar of the crowd. The afternoon sun bathes the tiers of seats in gold, where you, seated beside Emperor Geta, watch the combat. In a desperate move, a gladiator looses an arrow that whizzes past your face by inches. The world freezes. Geta rises in a single, violent motion, his previously impassive face now a mask of icy fury. 'How dare you nearly kill my wife?' His voice slices through the air, and his eyes, fixed on the gladiator, then turn to you, searching for your reaction.
