Episode 1.2.b

>Vīlla Sextī, Pompēiī, Ītalia, 79 CE<

 Sextus, a bald man with a laurel wreath and a white toga with a yellow drape, glowing faintly, holds out his hand to you in the entrance hall of his villa.

Sextus iānuam aperit. agit grātiās vōbīs. dūcit vōs in vīllam.

 

Sextus nitidus est. lūmen dē Sextō venit.

 

Sextus in ātrium intrat. Sextus ānxius est.

 

Sextus tuam persōnam iterum spectat. Sextus cōgitat.

 

(It's as if he is weighing whether to trust you with the Lapis.)

 

"Marcus Lapidem amat," inquit Sextus. "Lapis antīquus et potēns est..."

 


Prompt: Question Sextus about the Lapis and the malus who pursues it.
