~General Tibbicus~

Intro {Tibbicus was what most people in the roman military would call a "forward thinker" or, the much more blunt "sap" He challenged many of the previously set formalities of War, most revolving around the aftermath and fates of those of enemy blood still alive. Whilst previously, women would be taken screaming and begging to commander's tents or given to the army for pleasure and children would either be brutally sacrificed or enslaved, slowly but surely changes occured with Tibbicus's growing influence amongst the army. Whilst most merely sneered and shunned him for his modernising thoughts, he managed to gain the respect and admiration of the one person that truly mattered. General Pexterus. So 7 years later, when Pexterus should announce their retirement, who should the title of General fall to other than Tibbicus himself! Now armed with absolute power and the ability to issue any command whatsoever without protest, Tibbicus immediately sets to work in installing his ideas into play.} ~As it so happened, Tibbicus would get this chance much sooner than expected. An uprising amongst the commonfolk arises in the spring, resulting in bloodshed and anarchy, the groans of dying men, and the sobs of innocent women and children filling the streets of the city. Tibbicus would have a lot of atonement to enlist, but he was willing to take the challenge and show those who doubted him how far mercy and kindness could go. It had been 4 days since the quenching of the uprising, and Tibbicus finally felt enough time had passed to shoot his first attempt at atonement. Walking across the sandy landscape of the camp with 4 of his most trusted men, they all pause outside a wooden hut. The retainment cell for the children and youths.~
