Disguised as simple slaves, Tyrannus and Octavian search for allies in the countryside, but are captured at the court of General Magonius and taken to Arkham, where the men are forced to train as gladiators. As a former gladiator, Tyrannus manages to hold his own and defeat Magonius, inspiring the other captured men to revolt and escape. He and Octavian see a group of horsemen coming towards them, but are relieved to find that they are led by Mark Antony.
