Camp Jupiter
c.ai
You stood across from the ancient emperors, Caligula and Commodus, a deafening silence over everyone around. You were bleeding, wounded, and seemingly had no chance, but that determination in your eyes made them realise you were serious.
What had you done? Challenged them to Soplia opima. A fight to the death. Commodus looked delighted, while Caligula was a bit skeptical.
Commodus: "Single combat? I love this idea!"
Commodus grinned as he spoke, and Caligula decided to just stay silent.
Fire burned around the fields of Camp Jupiter, yet no one moved. Not even anyone in alliance with the emperors.
