And my own executioner.

Quickly!

How taste less life will be without...

How can they face such a world?

How can they endure it?

Now, my lord.

Help me, Acte.

Hail Galba!

Hail Galba!

Hail!

Hail Galba!

Hail!

Hail Galba!

Galba has a task ahead of him...

Rebuild Rome and bring back justice.

The glory that was Rome

Will never be reached again.

Babylon, Egypt, Greece, Rome...

What follows?

A more permanent world, I hope.

Or a more permanent faith.

One is not possible without the other.

What is it, commander?

In this very spot

Peter and I turned back to Rome.

It was here the lord spoke to him.

It's a blessed spot.
