silius is good actually. like he’s bad but he’s also good. speedrunning the epic proem and then immediately skipping to the epic hero (but evil) going to the temple where dido killed herself and swearing a terrible oath of vengeance against rome to her ghost is sexy actually
#‘silius based everything off livy’ livy doesn’t have the dido ghost necromancy + prophecy scene.#neither does nepos! a win for the enjoyers of latin historical epic (me)#punica#suicide mention —#beeps
