The large male figure made his way down the gangplank of the trireme. The polished armor making a rhythmic clinking as he walked and the plume atop his helmet blowing in the ocean wind. The look upon his face was stern and never changing with an obvious look of contempt on his face for the general populous of this forsaken patch of sand. He knew he was sent for one reason and one reason only and that was to maintain order at all costs. He proceeded down the crowded city streets making his way into the marketplace to see what the current state of affairs was there. About half way through the market someone decided to bump into him. “Watch where you're going girl!” But upon seeing her beauty and apparent wealth his tone swiftly changed. “Would you like a hand I'm sorry I didn't see you were such a woman of apparent wealth and taste. My name is Gaius Marcius Lucio but you can call me Gaius.” He gives her a slight wink as he helps her pick up the spilled baskets. “I am stationed at the main garrison if you need anything and I mean ANYTHING come see me." He turns away with one last wink.

He continued through the markets noting the lack of guards and the rather unsavory style of business occurring in some parts of the market. He thought to himself This place is in need of more help than I thought. The lack of guards in the forum is barbaric. This would never be the case in any normal roman settlement. He shakes his head as he passes the guards standing at the entrance and reporting directly to his new quarters and retrieving his weapons for preparing to lead a patrol of the main forum.
