Legendary adventures of Argus ! DRAFT!

Argus (draft)

Somewhere in a druid forest tribe in the north Welsh. A small column of Roman legions bearing the mark of the old republic. On this march was the original now disowned heir Gaius Octavius, He dreams to be the golden imperator of Rome and bring a Pax Tellus (peace of earth) like in the old days.

But that was day dream, his father went from consul to dictator to eternal dictator to Rex. It was funny to him, his father had the weakest title compared to what Octavius wanted.

But that just proved that rather then a high title, elected title or hell even a emergency title. He rather be a king.

That didn't matter, His praetorian guards want to rest and his centurion Marcus Agrippa, wanted to settle down.

Octavius agreed and went 5 more minutes to a destroyed ruined village.

The Platoon sat down and started setting up camp and meals.

Octavius warned around the ruins with a quill and paper documenting the atrocity that where committed. 

  Soon he hears a whimper from a destroyed temple, he walked over to the temple and noticing a noise coming from a crack, he suspects an attack and so he draws his Gladius sword and as he pushes the rocks over he suspects a jump and with fear and balls he screams.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH" But nothing happens other besides surprised guards and animals scurrying.

What there was a starving male teenager and a high priestess who seemed to be a teenager too but less skinnier.

The high priestess looks at Gaius Octavius, she closes her eyes and says "Please... Have mercy on us." The boy finally opened his eyes to Gaius and looked at the priestess. "I am sorry i cannot protect you now Margret Apple Porridge" He breathed with such despair and sadness.

This broke Gaius's heart break, he told them that they are safe and are actually exiles and to prove that by offering them flatbread topped with cheese and cooked meat. And offered to be in his merry band of exiles.

The two accepted offered to join the platoons camp, they welcomed the 2 tribals, they feed them, clothed them and told them stories. The priestess blessed the platoon of good health and one of the men who had syphilis, had the disease disappear! And she blessed Marcus Agrippa to become the skilled military leader and Gaius Octavius... Nothing yet.

The priestess opened up and said this "I am Margret Apple Porridge, i am the daughter of the late chief, i was born 17 years ago, i survived because i was ingredient picking and i am well educated in health potions and light healing magic... And i found out the hard way that food is one of the things human body requires" 

One of the praetorians (Adrian) asked the tribal who was silent. "I am... Argus... I was born 17 years ago, i was born to the lowest of the lowest of classes, worked as a hunter... And i survived because i was the only one that could have been fully healed. But before my  knock out they raped all that where girl or women including babies, burnt all the houses and food and made boys and men into eunuchs slaves and Then i saw him, this white heard, 50 year old and red wearing man he had a kingly crown instead of the usual wreath, it was a battle helmet with a pume. He had strong pleasures in what he did. People called him out AVE REX CAESAR!" He said with a voice of lost hope and trauma.

This was fuel to Octavius anger towards his father, but a survival account and the fact they are the very last of their kind. Before this encounter Octavius when arriving towards Ruined he hoped that they either fled, went on holiday or where slaves. Sadly it was just pure genocide and rape. Like what was Octavius trying to be when being optimistic abut the fates. 

This was too much to bear, he struck a deal with everyone. If they help overthrow Rex Caesar and establish Imperator Octavius! He will bring a Pax Tellus and promise to rebuild the glory to the world and democracy after his imperium death.

All around him worried but this may be the only chance to kill Julius.

They agreed. And promised Argus and Margret that they will be avanged and live in peace.
