What if we Lose?

 Cassius asked me what is going to happen if we were to the battle. I told him that if we lost, althought suicide is an action that would only be taken by a coward, that is what I would do. There is no way that I would ever be able to return to Rome. Not only would I be hated, but I would be a captive- a prisoner of war and the Roman People would not be happy to see me. After explaining this all to Cassius, we said our goodbye's to eachother. At that point we were both very aware that it was likely that we would never see eachother again, because the battle was just around the corner.
