As it comes from the lady of the house.<br/><br/>Isabel would turn and look to Marcellis as they walked.   In  a hush tone.   That does carry and can be heard.<em>"You are above the pits.  It is nothing buy vile dregs of society.  Your name should ring throughout  with the glories within the arena Marcellis."</em><br/><br/>Marcellis;<em>"He is still rough around the edges.   The pit might just be the thing needed.    So he knows and understands his worth."</em>The lanista would respond to his wife.   Giving  hope back, as it seems the two debated the finer points of such.  That your proposition has brought with it.<br/><br/>
