Summary: Taking over the Palatine Hill is not the end of an insurrection, but merely the beginning of a new Roman era. As dust settles, it leaves in its wake triumphant and devastated men on uncertain foundations: what will dawn bring with its first light? What is the will of the people, and how to best guide it when it is known to be so fickle, and so often at odds with its own best interests? How to convince an Empire that it needs no Emperor, when a thousand shadows are watching through the cracks, waiting for an opportunity to claim the throne for themselves?
And what to do with two orphan boys, abandoned by their gods and their people, in this lair of wolves?

OMG
Hey guys, I just noticed that the relationship between Felix and Oliver could be similar to the relationship between Dionysus and Satyrs in Greek mythology. Basically as Dionysus is heavily associated wine and partying in general, and is always being followed by his band of Maenads (flower hippies that are also very evil) and Satyrs which is similar to Felix as he is often described as the life of the party and is always surrounded by a group of people. Anyway, on the other hand, Satyrs are half-goat men whose actions are driven by desire, with them often being seen on vases with phallic imagery. This sort of relates to Oliver, as he is driven by his desire for Felix through most of the film.
But yeah, this probably wasn't what Fennel was going for as I know that her literary references were more modern than ancient greek mythology, but its just something funky I've noticed.
Has anyone else ever thought about the idea of Caracalla talking to his brother’s headless body the same night of the murder? Because I have. I imagine him pacing the room, trying to speak to his brother as if nothing had happened, his voice cracking with anger, desperation, or maybe guilt.
What if he didn’t even realize the head wasn’t there? What if Macrinus had already taken it, leaving only the lifeless body behind? Caracalla might have poured his words into the void, oblivious to the grotesque reality before him.
Imagine him kneeling beside the body, gripping the empty shoulders, begging for forgiveness from someone who’s no longer whole, not even in death. Maybe he reaches for the head that isn’t there, only to feel the cold, bloodied stump under his hand. The horror would crash over him slowly, piece by piece, until the weight of what he’s done is undeniable and unbearable.
Then he wakes up the next day. It was a long night but he doesn't even remember what happened. Everything is still the same, right?
