Episode 3.2.d

>In imāginātiōne TSTT, Trōia, aetās aēnea (Bronze Age)<

 1.1b

Herculēs baculum tollit. deinde verba vestra audit, et baculum dēpōnit. circumspectat. Herculēs tristis est. Herculēs nōn iam īrātus est.

 

Herculēs paeneculpat. caput ad vōs movet, et Priamum vocat. puer timidē prōcēdit et vēlāmen tollit.

 

Herculēs turbātus est, sed vēlāmen capit. "estne hoc novum drama? aliquis mē in fābulā novā posuit." Herculēs vēlāmen in saccō pōnit et ad Priamum sē vertit. nunc vultum gravem gerit.

 

"Lapis deōrum," inquit Herculēs, "in hīs mūrīs est." locum prope portam indicat. "dēbēs Lapidem bene servāre!"

 

Herculēs lentē ad nāvem suam ambulat.

 

Priamus ad vōs sē vertit. "quid accidit?" rogat. "quid nunc agere dēbeō?"

 


Prompt: Help Priamus plan the future of Troy and how to protect the Lapis. Advice about not accepting gifts from strangers is appropriate, though it may do no good.
