The Emperor, Aurelius, returned to Rome after a victorious but vicious battle. His Spartan army behind him in tow on their horses. The army's large warhounds, nearly as large as horses, were on the frontlines of the army. Many men were injured, but only few were being carried, lifeless, on their shields.

The men were ready to get out of their armour and celebrate their victory aswell as reminisce in the memory of their fallen comrades.
