Damnatio Ad Bestias

From the streets of the Basilican ghetto you could see the fires blazing through the agora, the result of some party out of control, and you knew that Emperor Vesto would be in want of a scapegoat.

You and your neighbors have pledged yourself to the Humble Lord, Anlonsos Basilica, a born prince who burned His estate and instead walked the earth like a pauper, preaching. (When asked by His pupil Forma why He didn’t instead give the wealth away, He replied, "You want I should give men poison?")

Damnatio Ad Bestias is a game you play with your cat. You are a follower of the Humble Lord, slated for execution by lion. When you give your cat a new toy, she will decide your fate.

One page, ~500 words. Features a public domain heraldic lion.
