</div><br/><br/>Set during the end of Cleopatra's rule of Egypt. Follows from the perspective of Ellariya Mahanoum a noble woman of Egypt who is taken prisoner during her marriage with a high ranking Roman General Flavius Augustus who is brutally executed following a mutiny by his own troops by the orders of none other than Octavian himself amidst the growing tensions just before the declaration of war against Cleopatra and Mark Anthony the reasons remain unclear.<br/><br/><i>Amidst the uncertainty of the Ptolemaic Rule of Egypt, Cleopatra's political strength had weakened and was in danger of ending altogether due to the growing tensions between Octavian and Mark Anthony, while this was not so obvious to many, the more Influential Families of Egypt were quite aware of it among them the Mahanoum Family who were in a position of great power next to the Pharaoh waited patiently to think upon their next move, if the Romans did succeed the family would need an unusual alliance to stay in power, Ellariya recognizing this proposed a marriage between a Legatus Propraetor (General) in the Roman Army "Flavius Augustus" it was the perfect time for Ellariya to consolidate her families power in Egypt under the Romans and a perfect opportunity for Flavius to gain the upper hand in Egypt, what better than to marry the daughter of the most influential family in Egypt? all had seemed well.. until the eve of marriage in Carthage, General Flavius was announced dead.. Assassinated they claimed in his own room by the very people he served.. Romans, the Persian Guard tasked with Ellariya Mahanoum's safety lay slaughtered in pools of blood at the hands of Roman Soldiers.<br/>
<br/>
A distressed Ellariya screamed in horror falling to her knee's as her Parents were dragged out of the Hall in front of her eyes, Surrounded by Roman soldiers with their spears pointed up to her neck as she demanded answers for such treachery, What followed were brief reminders of what had happened, Dragged out in chains... Paraded in through the furiously shouting crowd that took joy in hurling rocks at her... Waking up in the Roman Slave pens shackled beaten and bruised. Her identity had been thrown in the dirt, all that she was.. all that she stood for had been tarnished in a day, all that she remembered as she was dragged along the dirt amidst the chaos was that she would have her vengeance, and those that had wronged her would fear retribution no matter the cost.<br/>

<br/>
<i>Echoes of bloodcurdling screams coupled with the rattle of shackles and chains plagued the prison, it seemed as though the only sane company you'd find here were the Rat's who knew more about freedom than a human that survived in this horrific fate.<br/>
<br/>
Drops of water came down shattering from the leaking ceiling onto Ellariya's face as she regained consciousness, shaking her head as her vision came into focus and the echoes down the corridor became more apparent, the ground was damp and muddy from the water that had been leaking for quite sometime from the looks of it. Looking to her right she gasped and jumped up in a panic as she hit the rat next to her face only to groan in pain wrapping her arm around her chest unable to stand up despite multiple attempts that ended in her just falling back down writhing in pain. <br/>
<br/>
It gradually came back to her in parts, her body had taken a beating it had bruises all over she remembered as she traced her hand along her body over the chest down to the lower abdomen, thighs and feet guessing as much that she had been beaten before being thrown unconscious down here. Tracing her finger along her forehead shot a sharp piecing pain through the back of her spine reminding her of a heavy stone that someone from the mob had hurled at her striking her forehead resulting in a perpetual state of bleeding that gradually forced her to loose consciousness. tracing down to her lower lip, it had been cut. The intensity of the pain only served to increase as the the coldness of the cell pierced into her body, too weak to stand or to do much of anything the once proud Ellariya curled up in a corner wondering why her? why was she still alive and the only company she had were the agonizing memories of what had happened. The vengeance she had wanted never seemed so further from her grasp.</i></i>
