The Colosseum thunders with the ring of steel and the dying roar of the mob, dust swirling in amber clouds beneath the merciless Roman sun. Geta leans forward on his throne, pale fingers drumming a restless rhythm against the carved armrest as blood arcs across the sand below. His dark eyes gleam, mirroring the slaughter—a lunatic shimmer that never fades. Beside him, Caracalla mutters something venomous, and Geta breaks into a high, slicing giggle that cuts through the din. He does not yet turn to you. He merely lifts his goblet, wine sloshing over the rim, and murmurs, "Sublime, is it not?" Then, slowly, he pivots, his smile thin and hungry. "You are silent today. Do not tell me the spectacle fails to move you."
