Maximus might have been a Roman and he might have respected his ruler, but he had suffered just as the same. Spartacus too, had once fought alongside Rome, but he had all taken from him as well. It was odd to see the similarities in these two men, one Thracian and one Roman.
If the other man had opened himself up, it was only fair that Nasir do the same.
"I do not know what became of my family." Like Maximus, his voice was detached.
Nasir did not even remember his parents. Much of his life before he became a slave was blank, save for brief flashes and a strange voice that once was as familiar as his own.
