Episode 9.2: Charta

 

Recentiī chartam diū spectāverant, et ūnum iam sciēbant: lapis in Aegyptō est, prope pȳramidēs. illūc via dūcit.

 

Tiberius chartam iterum in saccō posuit. "dēbēmus discēdere," inquit vōce parvā. "sed nōn statim."

 

ē cubiculō suō exiērunt, et nihil cēlābant; nam in cubiculō suō fuerant, et hospitēs erant. tum, in viā, aliquid vīdērunt. puella in umbrā stābat, et Recentiōs tacitē spectābat. fīlia Salviī erat, nōmine Salvia.

 

Salvia nihil dīxit; Recentiī quoque tacuērunt. sed vultus eius nōn dūrus erat sīcut vultus patris. aliquid in oculīs eius erat, quasi rogāre volēbat, nōn accūsāre. Bellātor paene rīsit. Octāviāna nōn rīsit; sed etiam illa sēnsit: haec puella nōn eadem erat quae pater.

 

deinde Salvia in umbrā abiit, et Recentiī sōlī erant.
