No worries at all. Any small contribution of images I may have made quite simply pales compared to what you have done with them. Part one was splendid, and it's great to have the uncaptioned images.Bobinder and Jollyrei have done wonders, spending ages trawling the net for pictures of these four, so that my hard drive is now creaking under the weight of images that I carry of them all. Thanks gents!

The second pic here really gets me. Stripped to the waist, being led to her cross by two strong soldiers. So far they almost seem gentlemanly. But we know what’s coming. Good work!
Alexa is certainly a wonderful asset for the home - and I bet she can play any tune you care to name!
Continuity is a major challenge in a manip series, but you still have Jasmine carrying Helena and Rebecca's clothes.
And the cutting and blending of components is looking excellent in these latest pictures - the figures really look like part of their environment. Great work!
Damn nearly forgot...Continuity is a major challenge in a manip series, but you still have Jasmine carrying Helena and Rebecca's clothes.
And, thank you! Bob and Jollyrei have been helping me along!
One other thing, the Roman experts will correct me if I'm wrong, but the eleventh hour of the day is about 6pm in summer.
Oh, then I've been up for it!!!Damn nearly forgot...

Whatever time it is, whether it's 6pm or elevenses, it's time for a snack.
Well, Bob has anyway. I made one cutout that I'm not sure was used, and make the occasional witty remark, as one does. Moral support, me.
These are splendid again, Wragg!! Alexia is quite funny, considering the look on her face suggests some sort of constant apprehension that something bad will happen if she gets an answer wrong. The hint that there is some "bitch" waiting to steal Jasmine's fiancee is a nice bit of foreshadowing. Look, tell you what, you crucify whatserface, the bitch what's stealing fiancees, and let Jasmine get married, eh?
No?

Great to see this amazing story going again, thanks! Very creative and Nice settings and plot. Isen't it a security risk to have such a cleaver slave?

Good to see the story resume again, Wragg!
But I could not resist making an alternative for their high level scientific conversation.

The proof I've seen, which I think is the original one, inscribes one right triangle inside a larger one and uses "similar" triangles to relate the ratios of the sides of the various triangles and uses their squares to get the result. Plato, who has been coopted by the religious to further their own ends, wasn't into experiment too much and tended to be something of a pompous, self-assured ass, in my humble opinion. Anyway, somebody should ask her about the "quantum vacuum". I may have used this quote before, but it's fantastic. "In eighteenth century Newtonian mechanics, the three-body problem became insoluble. With the birth of general relativity around 1910 and quantum electrodynamics in 1930, the two- and one-body problems became insoluble. And within modern quantum field theory, the problem of zero bodies (vacuum) is insoluble. So if we are out over exact solutions, no bodies at all is already too many." Plato if he weren't already dead would probably have committed suicide in despair.Good to see the story resume again, Wragg!

Great literature does indeed require background and motivation, but I am, as I assume others are, somewhat impatient to see the climax of this superbly illustrated story. Thanks for an excellent read.
This is all extremely interesting, but you failed to tie it back to the crucial point of how all this business of triangles inevitably leads us back to the flogging or crucifixion of slave girls. I mean, one has to keep one's mind on the purpose of philosophy, and indeed geometry (what is the purpose of the concept of symmetry, for example, if not to fully appreciate the balance of the female form, and say something about all those curves, diameters, and circumferences?). 4/10.

Plato would have agreed with such an essentialist statement!Well, the patibulum has to be at right angles to the stipes before any of these theories make sense...
Bringing us back to philosophical questions, I suppose - is death by crucifixion better than marriage to a senator with halitosis? Perhaps Alexa knows.Well, the patibulum has to be at right angles to the stipes before any of these theories make sense...
Anyway, back to the story:

That's a toughie... Senator - good. Halitosis - bad. Crucifixion? That can be smelly, too!
