‘Go!’ Crescens hisses, ‘You’ll scream for death if the lord sends you back.’

Barates swallows disgust, turns away.

In the dusty yard, Yarhai waits, astride a silver stallion. His slave steadies a roan.Taking the rein from him, Barates murmurs ‘Hello girl,’ into her twitching ear.

Love this! I'm going to miss the monthly competition.

Fabulous! Can't believe this is the end of #WriteCBC. I'll miss reading these every month and taking part too.

They are great. Hoping to go back there this autumn.

I'm not paid to post this. I volunteer to host #WritersCafe on the #BeingAWriter platform among other activities. This community is enabling me to become my best writing self.

Thanks 🤩

Thank you ☺️

Love this blog post. Thank you for quoting my words.

Indeed it does. There was a little intentional irony in my post.

Thank the tech gods/goddesses for translate!

Portrayal of women and men in art changed as Greek influences became popular due to emperors being heavily influenced by all aspects of Greek culture. Idealising tendencies gradually replaced realism of the Republican era. This is a generalisation of a complex process of cultural appropriation.

Very similar to the jet necklace found at Dunragit by #GuardArchaeology
