Macrinus
Where were you born?
Lucius "Hanno" Verus
Why does my past matter if it is my future to die for you in the arena? Tell me what use have I for Roman money.
Macrinus
A gladiator can buy his own freedom. His liberty.
Lucius "Hanno" Verus
The Roman dream.
Macrinus
No, the slave dreams not of freedom but of a slave to call his own. Cicero.
Lucius "Hanno" Verus
Is that what you were raised on, Macrinus? What did you have to do for Roman money? You promised me a head.
Macrinus
Earn your keep and you can have anyone's head.
