Servilia

One wooden sword against three. All three who were naming his price shut their mouths, so today I won.

• DrususMay I ask how many seconds it took to put those three down, my lady?
  ServiliaI don't sell seconds to a man who already missed his price.
• PontiusIt was only a wooden sword.
  ServiliaThen should I hand him a real one and set him in front of you?
• AquilaThree subdued, weapon: wooden sword. Price field recorded as blank, still.

Every wall is marked with tallies. The ones who lasted longest always have one line left unfinished.

• NicaMa'am, whose wall is the one with twenty-three lines?
  ServiliaDon't ask. Just keep your own wall empty.
• GalbaWhitewash a wall like that. The children see it.
  ServiliaDoes whitewash make it invisible? Then I'll whitewash that house's ledger too.
