Spiders

"There webs were spread of more than common size, And half-starved spiders prey'd on half-starved flies."

-        The Prophecy of Famine: A Scots Pastoral, Charles Churchill

The trenches fell inevitably to the Romans right after the Ottomans chose to give up their grounds in return to save the lives of their men. Honestly speaking Antonius was surprised by his Ottoman counterparts' decision, because in his assumption the Ottomans rarely gave up their strategic goals in exchange for the lives of conscripts. But the Ottomans this time proved that his assumption is totally wrong. After seeing this event Antonius sighed to Anna and Alexios, saying that there is still modest man within the Ottomans that cares for the lives of soldiers despite there are much differences in many areas between them.
