Marcus -  Outer Courtyard- in cage on wagon.<br/><br/><br/>He was a slave he should be used to living at another’s whim. But still the shock at the sudden change in his circumstances hit hard. Yesterday he had been the Champion Gladiator at the Ludus, today he was in a cage in the back of a wagon.<br/><br/>His master Murellios, no ex-master Murellios had sold him as some kind of favour to a new Ludus, namely Ludus Leonis Scopulus Tarraconensis and a new master. Marcus leaned against the bars as the wagon bumped along the rutted track that led to his new Ludus. He thought back to the first days after he had beed sold out of the Legion.<br/><br/>It had been a hard time, the life of a slave was but he had survived and as much as a slave could he had prospered.<br/>That it could be so easily taken away was a bitter taste in the mouth, but there you go he was a slave. Still if he had survived once he could do it again. And as a trainer had told him once remember, no matter who they are race, station, champion or not they all bleed red when you stick your sword into them.<br/><br/>The wagon rumbled through a gate and into a courtyard. The driver and his assistant getting out and walking away towards the nearest building. He had arrived, he could smell and hear the familiar sounds. So all he had to do now was wait until someone came to get him.<br/><br/>
