《Nova Roma》The fiancee
Advertisement
During the following weeks, Flavio ordered the province of Lusitania and made a census of the population, also foreseeing that in a few years more he would go to the American continent preparing Latin-Nahuatl and Latin-Maya textbooks
because Mayan and Nahuatl writing is pictographic occupied the Latin alphabet to be able to correctly imitate the pronunciation of words, because it is a fact that the language changes as time passes are very likely that we can hardly communicate
A very clear example of this is Spanish if one tries to communicate with a Castilian of century XV occupying Mexican Spanish of century XXI, could only be understood a small percentage of the words but it would be sufficient to be able to communicate very simply, other of the things that prepared Flavio was a book of dangers of Mesoamerica from insects that They can kill even flora and fauna (Centro de México).
Flavio after much analysis decided that the best area to arrive was Coatzacoalcos (Present municipality of Veracruz Mexico), this because it is an area that very few know but before the Panama Canal was built the Americans wanted to buy it (treated Mclane Ocampo) and steal (filibusters) the "Isthmus of Tehuantepec" because in a straight line of 215 km joins the Gulf of Mexico with the Pacific
it was his first option in the construction of an inter-oceanic canal because Mexico and had lost in their hands a few years before more than half of the territory (Texas, California, Arizona, New Mexico, etc) the Mexican did not allow more thefts of territory if the Americans gave up when they saw their second option the Panama Canal were an independent Panama from Colombia
but for Flavio and his descendants, the Isthmus of Tehuantepec may have strategic importance because you can build a much easier channel (It is a to plain) to go to Panama that in this time is a dense jungle where there are a lot of mosquitoes that transmit diseases.

While Flavio was planning the Arabela future, he entered the studio and mentioned that Hellena would arrive in the afternoon, his fiancee and his uncle Julio, Flavio could only sigh, his grandfather agreed to reform his uncle because he likes to be a hedonist but nevertheless we have to admit that he does not have the courage to take more than one woman at the orders of his grandfather
One of the most amazing things Flavio did before his grandfather left for Rome was to do a corocotta amputation of his arms and legs to make him an attraction in Rome, he suggested to his grandfather that he make a human zoo of those who opposed Rome, what better punishment than to prevent them from dying and living in Rome until they die of old while they are visited and humiliated by Romans every day, Flavio asked his grandfather to call this punishment "Vitellii Poenas" ( The punishment of Vitelio) in honor of his father.
Augusto during this time did not waste time once arrived in Rome inaugurated the zoo of the damned and began with religious reform for it joined the oracles of the most important temples of Rome and showed the "Sacrum Textum" (The sacred text)
that Flavio had created the process of religious reform was a slow process that once started would take years to be applied throughout the empire, another of the things he did was to prepare the invasion of Britannia and Hibernia for the first half of 20 ac, gathered the Jewish leaders in Rome and proposed the creation of a Jewish state in Hibernia the conditions that august presented them were not bad, they only had to conquer the island themselves and not leave unless they had permission from the emperor
for the Jews it was better that they pay tribute and that they were a Roman autonomous province, than to be homeless and discriminated people; The legions by orders of August added 5 cohorts to their ranks 3 of them crossbowmen, one of the engineers (who were trained in making siege weapons) and one called "Vi Opus" (Special Force)

This cohort would be responsible for entering territory enemy before the strength of the legion to do deep reconnaissance received a training in survival, camouflage and guerrilla warfare, its most important accessories were telescopes, camouflage suit (A suit covered with leaves of the region that covered full body), leather boots with metal base (Perfect to avoid damage to the feet), A crossbow as main remote weapon, a small crossbow that was placed on the wrist with effective range of 20 meters, a short sword, a dagger and a backpack with canteen and dry biscuits (for 3 days), they also had a notebook to write down the intelligence.
The city of emerita Augusta welcomed Hellena the fiancee of Flavio and July the son of the august emperor, the ceremony was quite simple but surprised his fiancée and July because in Rome there was not such a beautiful music Flavio played for them "Progressus Emerita "(The march of Zacatecas), although august took with him some musicians and instruments including the scores of the songs that Flavio had created in those weeks had not been able to train the musicians to play like the military orchestra of emerita Augusta
Another thing that surprised them was the food Flavio showed them the flour tortillas and the quesadillas and as the main course some carnitas made in a copper saucepan, cooked with citron juice and beer in butter, Flavio also cut onion, cilantro and He placed citron juice, taught his fiancée and his uncle how to prepare a taco, placed a tortilla in his hand, took carnitas and placed onion, chopped cilantro And finally he put citron juice
When he took a bite he had to admit that he regretted not having chile to make a sauce, as a Flavio drink he made apple cider, after a sumptuous meal, he took them to see the city and at night he showed them a drink called atole of toasted flour, to make it Flavio boiled water in a container with cinnamon, put in a pan wheat flour and toast until it had yellow color, put the flour in the water and added milk with sugar (Unfortunately he didn't have cornstarch so that it had the consistency of a good atole), also prepared a delicious sugar conch (Pan typical of Mexico), and before finishing the day Flavio showed them a board game called "Card Venatus" (Spanish deck)
Replaced the jack by a legionary, the knight by centurion on horseback and the king by the emperor (Augustus), all other figures remained the same Spade (Sword), Coppe (Cup), denari (Roman coin) and Bastoni (Baston), Flavio taught to play his uncle and his fiancée also in the game was his mother Julia, they had a good time that night before going to sleep.

Haven in a Dangerous World (Old)
Devin McMullen. Female. 18. Single dad. Dead mom. Good in fights and little else. No friends. Or, at least, that's what she's always been. Now, she's not sure exactly what she is. She's never been one for reading fiction, or anything for that matter, but this feels like something straight out of a fantasy. Her newly acquired instincts, however, scream dungeon core. Whatever that is. Unlike most dungeon cores, though, she's missing something very important. A dungeon. Stuck out in the open, above ground where she's definitely not supposed to be, with not a cave in sight, or any other land form besides miles and miles of ice and snow, Devin's not sure if she can survive. Update: Big caveate, though, just so you know. Started with this one idea and ran with it as far as I could. Characters and plot suffer from it, but I'm proud that I wrote as much as I did. I will rewrite this at some point and make it so it actually has plot. Check out my wordpress © [koallary] and [Haven in a Dangerous World], [2017].
