guy ends up losing an eye

UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

He finds out his wife cheated.

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and it's not over yet.

Just, tortured!! beaten, whipped, burned, hit!

Then he is freaking tortured!!

Awaits death.

He is forced to go to the pits again.

Later, his recruits rebel against him and everything he holds sacred.

Best friend leaves.

So then that happens…

Just, dont.

And don't even get me started on his wife.

He gains position he never intended.

He is forced to kill his own doctore!

He cannot fight in the arena again.

He fights The Shadow, and survives, but badly wounded.

There, he spends perhaps 20 years!!!

And is "rescued" by a lanista.
