A Roman emperor returns after three years in a mine to find his family living with his rival.
Lucius gave his freedom to spare his rival and endured three years beneath the earth. He expects his family to have mourned him, yet finds them settled beside the man he saved, never having searched. That betrayal sharpens his sorrow into authority. He recalls his troops, enters a banquet, and watches three legions drop to their knees. The scene sets a reckoning in motion without revealing its outcome.
