After receiving the letter from Lucius concerning the Italic Tribes, Marcus had stopped the attack and made sure he did not lose a lot of men in combat. He then brought them back to Rome with honours, especially the fallen ones to have deserved burials and be honoured by the Romans.
Once they arrived at their beloved city of Rome, Marcus stopped his horse and looked at it for a moment before he raised his sword and exclaimed, "Roma immortalis!" The men yelled in unison with his words and then rode at full gallop to reach Lucius' house. The people in the city looked at them and threw flowers and palms to the feet of their horses in awe and respect for what their army was worth. Marcus smiled and welcomed their greeting. It did not take them long to arrive to Lucius' house. Soon he would be told of the arrival of his brother and how the battle had been before they were told of the new arrangements.
Marcus smiled and got off his horse, his men followed and did the same. He then spoke to a slave to tell Lucius that his brother had come back from war.
