=== 87 ===
Flavius, growing up homeless, now ready to lead, a centuria, instead, detaching from his main unit, curious what's on the other side of the Atlantic. Getting permission from his superior, Legate Lucius. Being raised by a retired gladiator instead of his parents, he have learned one and two about fighting. Even on different terrains. However, he knew that he needed to prepare for the worst. Centurions described him as being stubborn and insane, but also kind of a genius. Flavius had one last problem however. He were unable to get ships. However, he couldn't request to get ships either. He ordered his centuria to disguise themselves as Assyrian pirates and capture one gunship, because it was enough to fit 81 men. However, before they've set sail, they sailed to a port in Gibraltar to get enough food and wine for 5 years. After this, they waited the winds to stop and started to sailing towards west. However, the problem was that many of the centurions got sea sick after a few hours and couldn't bear the conditions and it was requested that they find calmer waters. Flavius found calmer waters 3 minutes later. It really seemed to everyone on the ship that Flavius had inhumane understanding of the environment around him.

Flavius was impatient and was too eager to see the Far West. However, a centurion, Titus Medereth talked with him for a really long time, so neither of them gets bored. However, Flavius knew that calmer waters weren't permanent, so he decided to help his fellow centurions to bear the harsh conditions of the ocean. But there was another problem. The ship was moving awfully slow, due to no wind, and the centurions were bored. Flavius convinced everyone to talk with each other to create the illusion of time moving faster. However, himself thought they were lost and they would not reach the Far West, but he didn't lose hope. But, after a closer examination of his environment, he realized they were still going towards the Far West, because the water is still horribly green tinted as before. Flavius, however, he didn't knew that weeks later, he would have a son, called Caius, and would not meet him for the entirety of his remaining life. However, not knowing about it, it didn't bother him. Everything was going fine, however, until they were disturbed by real pirates, one of the remaining parts of the ancient lunar civilization, the Knights Hospitalier. Their leader, Dwerahebz Bwatharzar, was a former lunar general, ready to capture Flavius's ship. Unfortunately, Flavius had more firepower, and Dwerahebz Bwatharzar, alongside with his crewmen, died.

Flavius started to see land after 2 years in the sea. However, they weren't lucky as they were being attacked by anti-naval forces, shooting from land. After this, they knew the Far West wasn't far. However Titus Medereth caught an unknown disease and died in it. Flavius named the hostile forces after him, the Mederetan Civilization. Now with one man less, everyone started to feel uneasy. They were attacked. Flavius, for unknown reasons, he thought this was not new to him and he was in this area somewhere before. Everyone thought this was impossible, until Flavius started to talk about Patriocallus, the mysterious invader of Rome. He basically told Patriocallus's invasion of Rome from Patriocallus's perspective, and it was too detailed to be a lie. This confirmed, that Flavius, in his previous life, was, indeed, Patriocallus. Everyone was shocked. But, Flavius familiar with the environment, this gave them the advantage of fighting back. However, after dodging landmasses after landmasses, he finally landed in the Far West, in a place what would be later known as New York City, and, there, he was the founder of the settlement of Dominitianerth. However, he would never could have the courage to Rome, so he decided to order 60 of his men to go back to Rome and give the message to the emperor that "A colony beyond the Ocean was formed".

Flavius knew that the natives wouldn't take humans, from an other continent to establish a colony here. He was right. The Creek had an attempt on raiding the colony, but ultimately failed, due to Flavius's extensive exploiting of the feigned retreat tactic. However, a remainder of Knights Hospitalier, Tophthwarakh Belthwerbaraz offered help to Flavius, in exchange for some money to strengthen his forces. So they pushed the natives out of their land. The current high chief of The Creek, quickly surrendered to the Roman-Lunar push. Flavius realized not all remaining forces of the Knights Hospitalier are inherently evil. This would later develop into always thinking twice before attacking anyone. However, many would question him about returning to Rome as a hero. He refused, because he couldn't live with the guilt with stealing a roman gunship. Now that a colony is established, Flavius were curious how does the north looks like, because, even, in his previous life, he never visited the most northern regions of Far West. He started to walk, but he was fully aware that the news of their arrival. He was wrong, since news don't spread between tribes. This gave him the opportunity of meanwhile moving, on he sacks the city of Pueblo, leaving no inhabitants behind. As there was no one alive to spread the news, no one knew about it.
=== 91 ===
Flavius, proceeding towards the north, he came across an ancient martian palace, named Mitteryi. It has been abandoned long since the First Martian Empire collapsed, but he was curious what could be found there. He found technology, incomprehensible to the human brain for the age, left it in the palace, to not fiddle with this kind of stuff. After this, he realized the more up north he goes, the more colder it begins, so he hunted down multiple animals to patch together an animal fur clothing. After this, he comes into a group of natives who attack him, but he takes them down, but ending up injured in the process, while acquiring some valuables that haven't been seen to mankind in Europe yet. As he was the one who established the colony in the Far West, he was also responsible for gathering resources until enough people from Rome, or local people wanting to join, join. Fortunately, upon returning, his men were feeling fine, but were hungry, indicating that food have ran out. Food has been found not long after Flavius have successfully have sold the tribal valuables he have found not long before.
=== 92 ===
Flavius received the news that if he will not return to Rome, the colony he have created will no longer be considered roman, and anyone from Rome will be prohibited to travel to the colony, at least without permission, it is forbidden. Flavius reacted by not going back to Rome, and started to bribe people who are giving out permissions to leave Rome, to give permission to people more often, doing all of this in the Far West, by sending out messengers, communicating telepathically to him, a skill that can be learned from beings from Godverse, during their short visit in the Mortal World. However, it was also reported to Flavius that an invasion from the south were happening, and conscription were inevitable, as they were in extreme need of soldiers. During the raid, it was mentioned that the men attacking them were weirdly shorter than them by an average 5 inches. It was also noted that the men raiding them only wore leaves seemingly to be coated by a weird liquid that made the leaves stronger than concrete. But after 12 hours, the raiders finally gave up, and returned home. Flavius realized that these men must have been from what today would be South America, but back then he seen them as an another species of humans.
=== 93 ===
Flavius have seeked to learn to write, but he was struggling, as there was no one in the colony to teach him, even if more people from Rome began turning up. During a meeting, between the Council Members, it was decided that they introduce a new writing script, and everyone will be forced to learn it. Children will be forced to learn it once they turn 5. After this, a system of rationing was introduced, that the homeless will receive 3 slices of bread every day. After this, many complaints would come that not every homeless did receive the 3 slices of bread every day. Flavius have investigated an issue, and realized that it was a plot for the homeless to receive more slices of bread, a plot that ultimately failed. After this, conscription was introduced, saying that everyone is required to serve in the military for 15 months, once they turn 16, men and women alike. Not long after this, it was suggested that Flavius and the Council Members return to Rome, in secrecy. Flavius however have hesitated that he would be the only one that would go.
=== 94 ===
Flavius have returned to Rome, and see that nothing have changed, besides the fact that security was more tight, as no one should repeat the "mistakes" that Flavius did. But since it was a long time that anyone has ever seen Flavius's face outside the colony, that no one were able to recognize him, apart from his family members that still lived in the Roman Empire. Unfortunately, as being an unidentified person, Flavius was accused as a barbarian spy, and was sentenced to fight 5 rabid lions in the Colosseum. When the fight have started, several family members have recognized Flavius, and were surprised to see him alive, as they haven't seen him in a long time. As the fight have started, Flavius have recognized that he were facing 5 rabid foxes, instead of lions, unsure if it was a mistake made, or the earlier statement was just to scare him. But as the foxes were too fast, 3 of them were already killed. One of them successfully have bitten Flavius's right pinky finger, that he have respectfully have cut off, and killing 2 of the foxes after that. And with this, he was free to go, as he was thrown outside the territories of the Roman Empire.

Flavius, not long after being banished from the Roman Empire, have stumbled upon a strange underground building, that seems to be from the future, as no building in 95 is blocky as the building he have stumbled upon in the start of a forest. When he entered the building, he have stumbled upon massive piles of skeleton, and strange solid and liquid substances. Unknown to him, he have stumbled upon a former abnormal creature residence, where 300 abnormal creatures have lived in peace, until the Indo-European tribes have lived in peace. And then, Flavius have heard an insanely loud crying sound coming from a room next to him. When he opened the room, he have seen a serpentine humanoid, that apparently didn't had a scaly skin, were crying. It was SDS-1, an extremely sad abnormal creature, due to all of his friends being dead. Flavius have approached the abnormal creature, which started to scream out of instinct, thinking that Flavius will hurt it, but the creature realized that he was not a threat. Flavius have brought the creature back to the colony in the Far West.
=== 97 ===
Flavius have realized that the abnormal creature he brought to the Dominitanerth Colony was no different from a dog, otherwise known as man's best friend, except that it was an oversized albino serpentine humanoid. Flavius have officially adopted SDS-1 2 days later. After that, he have constructed a massive tower, as a place for the Council to have meetings and discuss the future of the colony the Roman Empire have abandoned. It was decided that they should do something about the poor hygiene and high mortality rate, as the medicine was terrible, and people weren't showering, only in dirty lakes that they find. Flavius drew plans for a sewer system that runs through the entire colony, and they dump it into an underground hole, through pipes. The pipes needed to be big so too many garbage won't get stuck. The other Council Members found it as a good idea, but the problem of poor hygiene was still an issue. It was solved by Flavius making swimming pools as a basic part of life, as people had to take care of their hygiene.
=== 98 ===
Flavius was informed that the tribes outside the colony were attacking again and they had to be stopped. A Council Meeting once again was a must, due to the attacks must be stopped in a way. In short, the meeting was short, it lasted for 3 minutes, by everyone agreeing that around the colony, an impenetrable and thick wall must be built to keep tribal people away. The problem was, that building a wall like that was time consuming and the attack was still happening. Flavius started to personally lead troops against the tribes. After about 15, the Battle of Border Yellow was happening, where the colonial forces formed an "E" shape, and once the tribal forces fallen into the trap, they were encircled, and brutally killed with leaving nothing behind, except skulls for decoration, and hand bones, again, for decoration. After this, the construction of the aforementioned wall have started, But from the battle, Flavius have caught an unknown mild disease that was annoying enough for Flavius to be annoyed by it.
=== 99 ===
Flavius have disappeared without explanation, possibly being abducted by unknown beings, or have left the colony to start a better life somewhere else. Search after him was so hard, even the poorest people in the colony were looking for him inside and outside, but to no avail as there was no traces of him, except a note written in a language unknown to Earth. It didn't stopped anyone from trying to find him, even going as far as trying to find him in Rome, but once again, no success, as no people were similar to Flavius, as no one was tall and no one was thin and no one was smart like him. However, the note was successfully decrypted, and it contained a weird location of 48.875398, -96.851926. When search parties got there, they have found nothing, and this generally made the search after Flavius even harder, as some of the search parties were extremely far from the colony. After this, people have started insulting the roman emperor, as it was a possible plot made by him. This made many people inside the Roman Empire extremely angry, and a huge unrest took place.

Paper have corroded away and heavy breathing could be heard as Flavius was nearby his last moments of his life. He became very senile and physically vulnerable over the years, but at the same time, he refused to die for an extremely long amount of time. However, this time, not even he could escape. He was barely able to speak, walk, or perform basic human functions, as the very last of his sanity have faded away, and for a brief moment, he could have seen a distorted version of reality. Old wounds have reopened, causing severe bleeding, as he was crawling towards the wall he is facing, as he have fallen off the chair moments earlier. After a lot of trying, he was able to finally rest, as he have found comfort turning his back against the wall. For a brief moment, he have seen a blinding light shining through the window, and at last, he have passed away of old age. His death would be discovered months later, as he have lived in an extremely secluded place, away from the troubles and politics of the colony. And then, he was given proper state burial.
