Learn the answers to: How tall were the ancient Greeks and Romans? How long did they live? What kind of pets did they have? How dangerous were their cities? Did they believe their myths? Did they believe in ghosts, monsters, and/or aliens? Did they jog or lift weights? How did they capture animals for the Colosseum? Were there secret police, spies, or assassins? What happened to the city of Rome after the Empire collapsed? Can any families trace their ancestry back to the Greeks or Romans?

The next morning, a woman named Livia enters Monk's room and informs him that Lady Octavia, the new ruler of Rome, wishes to meet with him and his fellow gladiators.

They win the battle and save the town, but Monk feels the weight of the lives lost. Despite this, he finds solace in his new purpose and continues to fight for justice.

Monk helps reunite a mother and son and realizes that he has found a sense of belonging with the rebels. They celebrate their victory but remain prepared for future battles. Monk knows that this is where he belongs. Maria's curiosity was piqued. She had heard rumors of these creatures, but had never encountered them herself. Determined to find answers, she offered to help the man in his search for his brother. Together, they ventured into the dark forest, guided only by the moonlight. The air was thick with an eerie silence, broken only by the rustling of leaves and the distant howls of the creatures. As they delved deeper into the forest, Maria's senses heightened. She could feel the presence of something sinister lurking nearby. Suddenly, they heard a blood-curdling scream, followed by a growl that sent shivers down their spines. They rushed towards the sound and came upon a clearing, where they found the man's brother, trapped in a cage. Surrounding him were the creatures, their eyes glowing with a malevolent light. Without hesitation, Maria and the man fought off the creatures, using their wits and whatever weapons they had at hand. It was a fierce battle, but their determination to save the man's brother fueled their strength. Finally, they emerged victorious, freeing the man's brother from the cage. As they made their way back to the village, Maria couldn't help but feel a renewed sense of purpose. They had faced the darkness head-on and emerged stronger. Word of their victory spread throughout the village, and the villagers began to regain their hope. They realized that they were not alone in their fight against the unknown. Together, they would stand strong and face whatever challenges came their way. As they celebrated their triumph, Maria couldn't help but think of Monk and the sacrifices he had made. She knew that he would be proud of what they had accomplished and that his spirit would continue to guide them in their journey. The villagers had learned that even in the face of darkness, there was always a glimmer of light. And with that light, they would continue to fight for justice, freedom, and the safety of their village. Maria is skeptical of rumors about monsters, but when she meets a man who believes in them, she decides to investigate. With the help of gladiators, they venture into the forest and encounter a terrifying creature. They fight bravely but are outmatched and retreat to warn the villagers. The villagers take action to protect themselves and eventually rebuild their lives. During this time, Maria and Monk grow closer and realize the importance of protecting others. The gladiators eventually leave, but Monk finds his purpose in protecting the vulnerable. They part ways as heroes.

Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ... smooth and grim, like a bone that has been laid bare. All was ruin or decay--a few short years had done the work of ages; and whether they waked or whether they slept, poet and patron had gone hence, never to return. Under the branches of a spectral holm-oak, blackened, withered, and destroyed by fire, Mariamne paused, and clung with both hands to her companion's arm. Bravely had the girl borne up for hours against terrible mental anxiety, as well as actual bodily pain, but with relief and comparative safety came the reaction. Her eyes grew dim, her senses seemed failing, and her limbs trembled so that she was unable to proceed. He hung over her in positive fear. The pale face looked so death-like that his bold heart quailed, as the possibility presented itself of life without her. Propped in his strong grasp, she soon recovered, and he told her as much, in a few frank, simple words. "And yet it must come at last," said she, gently. "What is the short span of a man's life, Esca, for such love as ours? Even had we everything we can wish, all the world can give, there would be a sting in each moment of happiness at the thought that it must end so soon." "Happiness!" repeated Esca. "What is it? Why is there so little of it on earth? My happiness is to be with you, and see, I win it but for an hour at a time, at a cost to yourself I cannot bear to think of." She looked lovingly in his face. "Do you suppose I would count the cost?" said she. "Ever since the night you took me from those fearful revellers, and brought me so gently and so courteously to my father's house, I--I have never forgotten what I owe you." He raised her hand to his lips, with the action of an inferior doing homage. Alone with the woman he loved, the very depth and...
