    Summary

    The past has finally caught up with Lucilla. Back in the here and now, the fear for her son's life is so great that Lucilla decides to sacrifice everything in a desperate, last-ditch attempt to cheat both their and Maximus' fates … at any cost. But will the mad Emperor still accept her offering after everything she has done, after betraying him and plotting his death? Help may have to come from the unexpected …
    Accompany Lucilla as she returns from her trip down memory lane and hurtles towards the final moments of the movie – but also glimpses into times that predate even herself.

    A word of warning: This is the final chapter of "Shadows and Dust", and it is by far the one with the most adult content. Read at your own risk and please heed the tags, they're there for a reason, so I won't accept any complaints later.
