(( *cough* weirdos *cough* lol nah you peoples are my strange friends :D)) Romithias had seen the woman go by again, probably returning from visiting her friend. Then someone follow her. 'Hmm...strange, better check this out," he thought. Romithias silently followed the man following the woman, until she ran inside a house and closed the door. The man was still there, so Romithias unbuckled the spear attached to the back of his armor and called out to the man. "You! State your business and be gone, or you'll regret staying."

Gaius layed on his back in his cell. When you had nothing to do for days and days, the ceiling became a place of interest.

Gaius had not been killed; he figured that they had more important people to arrest than a 60 year old man who wasn't much of a threat. The guard who had thrown him in here seemed very disinterested in him, and hurried through the arrest and jailing as if he were trying to hurry to get something else done. But they did make sure that he was in a cell that was fairly deep within the prison.

His cell was brightly lit; there was a window (or rather an opening) in the wall across from his cell. It made the cell somewhat comfortable. He could lie on the floor all day and listen to the birds outside. Other than what came through the window, things were pretty quiet. There was one other inmate in the cell next to his, and no guards anywhere nearby. Even though this was somewhat the high-security part, guards were not needed, because prisoners weren't let out. They didn't get exercise, and didn't have the strength to break out. If they could break out, they'd have to pass dozens of guards on their way out of the prison.

But Gaius wasn't concerned about the possibilities of a breakout.

A tray of bread was dropped down in front of his cell, with some water. The guard walked to the cell on the right, and gave the inmate there bread and water as well, and then walked off.

Gaius scooted up to the front of the cell to get the bread. He took a loaf, took a bite out of it, and rested his back against the wall, so he facing the other inmate's cell.

"Bread was baked today," Gaius said, and he took another bite from the warm bread.

"Not this one," the other inmate chuckled. Gaius saw the inmate's hand reach out to grab another one of his loafs. "But this one is." Gaius pictured the other inmate smiling, even though he didn't know what the other guy looked like.

A small piece of bread flew out from the other inmate's cell and landed by between the bars of the window, where a waiting bird grabbed it and flew off.

Gaius took his last loaf and layed back as he watched the bird fly into the rising dawn sun.

After ordering the strange man to leave, Romithias had gone to the captain of the guards and attempted to persuade him into letting only him patrol the streets. Succeeding in doing so after telling him he'd have more guards to put in other places more likely to have Christians. 'Atleast that street shall be safe...' he thought happily. Making his way towards the high-security prison tower, Romithias was allowed passed the walls and a large iron drawbridge was lowered down over a deep trench filled with water. 'Who knows what terrible creature lies in there...' he thought. Romithias passed over and heard a loud clang as the bridge was raised once again and firmly locked in place. Romithias gazed up at the tower, wondering how he could get back to the street in time after talking to an important person he needed to see. So Romithias went inside and started climbing up, and up as fast as he could.
