Panic grips the hearts of those in Roma as word has reached them that the Hirtian rebels from Illryicum have landed in Italia and are at best five days away from the city and at worst two. People are beside themselves and many are fleeing, hearing tales of the brutality of Decimus Flavius Titianus Carnfiex.

Rampant crime is unfolding as order is falling apart and many are either locking themselves into their homes or fleeing if they are able.

Many in the Senate are simply fleeing with what few belongings they can take while others attempt something of a resistance yet there is no army in the whole of Italia and so many are hiring gladiators or freeing slaves to form a ragtag resistance.

Prayers and donatives are being hurled to gods as many now fear the wrath of Carnifex and his colleague Spurius Hirtius Macedonicus Minor.

Many are now cursing Proconsul Placus Furius laying blame squarely on him for allowing this to occur and hope he returns to save Roma or else hope the gods punish him for leaving the sacred city to be devoured by the wolves.

Only time will tell what fate befalls the sacred city.
