To the Censors,

It is a well-known fact that the royal court of Bithynia, if not King Prusias I of Bithynia himself, have special preferences for males as sexual playmates. In the interest of securing a treaty of friendship with Bithynia, I have received instructions from my master to purchase gifts appropriate to cultural tastes on behalf of the senatorial delegation. To this end, I am purchasing 4, well-endowed male slaves blessed by Genus Loci. They are to be of varying shapes and size. They are to be loaded immediately onto the ship which will carry us to Nicomedia. They are not, however, to wear anything other than a loincloth and pink bow tied around their necks with the words "Gift to his Majesty, King Prusias I of Bithynia, courtesy of Rome's Senatorial Delegation." They are to be treated with utmost care during the voyage, so as not to prevent any bruising or blemishing. Description of the slaves are as follows:

1.) Felix, a Gaulish slave. Gladiator. Aged 30-ish. Muscular.

2.) Adoria, a Greek slave. Feminine-looking. Age 10.

3.) Colon, an African. Sleek dark skin. Extremely well endowed. 20ish.

4.) Lendorix, a Celtic bard, versed in playing the lyre and various other music instruments. Blond haired. Age unknown.

Total cost is 32 D.
