As the crowd was silent for a few moments, Marcus was the first on his feet cheering loudly "Well Fought Gladiator! Well Fought! The Beast stood no chance against you!" With that he turned to leave before the rest of the crowd could come to life. The young man who jeered her earlier turned to him "She barely won, how can you say it stood no chance?" Just before Marcus blended into the crowd he looked in the mans direction and shouted "She was distracted by something important in the stadium, during the silence after the final strike I could hear a woman crying, I assume that had something to do with the distraction" With that he faded into the crowd. People tended not to pay attention to a blind man and that was exactly how he liked it. Marcus made his way down to the gladiator pens he would be there to congratulate the warrior personally. The guards down there knew him well from the glory days so he was welcomed, more out of pity than respect thought. He stood patiently waiting for them to escort the wounded warrior inside.
