Rome, AD 41. Pavo’s success in the arena attracts rivals who see him as both a threat and a profitable spectacle. Macro attempts to prepare him for a new opponent while officials around Claudius interfere with the contest for their own purposes. The challenge tests Pavo’s skill, but also exposes how a gladiator’s reputation can be controlled by patrons, bookmakers and political enemies.
