Tulius was running back to the place where he left his horseman unconscious. Had he arrived there, his chances would increase: besides his horseman' spear, he would have another sword to defend himself. Furthermore, another man would be an excellent help against that warrioress. What a warrioress, Tulius was forced to admit. Not only was she strong, bus she was also a skilled fighter. For a moment, Tulius thought how much sestertians he could earn if he capture her alive and force her to fight in the pits in Antioch.<br/><br/>After some five minutes, Tulius turned his head backwards and did not see any bush moving. Probably the girl had given up, but he continued to run towards his friend.
