2022-03-17 08:01
The great general of the Roman Empire, Titus Antoncas, fought a long war with the Goths, in the end all but his four sons were killed, but they were victorious. The eldest son Lucius reminded his father that there should be sacrifices made by enemy prisoners in the ceremony to celebrate the victory. Titus took his son's advice and chose Tamora's eldest son as a sacrifice from among the captured Gothic queen Tamora and her three sons. Tamora, who lost her son, vowed to get revenge on Titus. Titus was very loyal to the Roman Empire. The new emperor was debauched and corrupt. His ascension to the throne was not in the interests of the Titus family and his friends, but Titus remained loyal to him. However, the emperor later married Tamora as his queen, which greatly alarmed Titus. A heated argument broke out in the Titus family, and Titus, out of control, killed one of his sons during the argument. But he didn't know that the waves of revenge that Tamora had set off had only just begun.
During a hunt, Tamora's old general, Aaron, designed the murder of Titus' son-in-law, the emperor's brother, Basianas, and blamed Titus' two sons. In his rage, the emperor decided to behead two of Titus' sons and exile his eldest son Lucius. At this time, Aaron appeared in front of Titus and said that if Titus could cut off one of his hands and give it to the emperor, he would be able to exchange the lives of his two sons. Titus did what he said, but what he didn't expect in exchange was the severed heads of his two sons. An angry Titus vowed to avenge his sons, he asked his exiled son Lucius to go to the Goths to hoard an army that could rival the Roman emperor, waiting for revenge. At this time, Aaron, who has always been very heartfelt to Tamora, betrayed Tamora, because Tamorra brutally ordered Aaron to kill her illegitimate child born to Aaron. Aaron fled Rome with his son and went to Lucius.
In front of the Romans in the whole city, Titus pretended to be crazy and sold stupidly, and Tamora, who did not know the inside story, was very proud of Titus' tragic situation. But soon she heard the news that Lucius led a Gothic army to Rome. Tamora sent people to get rid of Titus, but they failed. Instead, the two sons were captured for Titus, and he himself got into the trap carefully designed by Titus.
