*Julius pressed two fingers against his temples and rubbed them. He knew the men were but the toys of the Fates but this was ridiculous. To what kind of place had those three old hags sent him? Luckily he seemed to be able to understand and speak the language, though he still looked very out of place in his general attire.
He walked into the hall of what seemed to look like a basilica and glanced around.*
By Zeus.
*If he weren't such a stoic his amazement would have been shown by his jaw dropping to the floor and scurrying away. Instead he dropped his hands to his sides and gazed around, showing no emotion, 'cept maybe arrogance.*

*Beatrice walked down the grand staircase, carrying the last of her things from her dorm room. She saw the man standing in the hallway, and was, for the first time, confident enough to approach someone she'd never met all on her own.*
"Good afternoon, sir! Are you in the opera?" *she asked, nothing his odd clothing.*

*Julius looked at the woman who had addressed him and was confused by her question. He had no idea what an opera was.*
"Ave miss, I do not know of what you speak. Let me introduce myself I am General Julius Caesar and I am new to this city."
*Julius bowed his head out of respect, before looking back up at the woman.*

*She tilted her head, slightly confused.*
"Oh, you don't know what an opera is? It's like a play, but with singing and dancing.," *said Beatrice with a frown. She brightened almost immediately.* "My name's Beatrice. Beatrice Spencer." *She dropped in a polite curtsy.*

"A play with singing and dancing. I see."
Must be some new Grecian thing.
*Julius glanced around the Foyer again and then looked at Beatrice.*
"Could you perhaps tell me, miss Beatrice, in what city of what country we are?"

*She frowned again. How could he not know? He was here after all...*
"You're in Paris, France."

*Aphrodite snapped her fingers, sensing something out of place. To her great surprise, she ended up in the Paris Opera Foyer.*
"Caesar?" *She asked incredulously, looking at him and snapping her fingers so that she wuld be in her Roman dress.*

Paris? France?
*Caesar as wrecking his brain, trying to place those names, but he could not remember ever hearing about a country named France. He was going to ask for specific coordinates, since the woman was friendly, when he heard someone say his name. He turned to the woman and his eyes grew wide with shock.*
It couldn't be, the goddess would never ....
*Caesar bowed deeply.*
"Your Highness."

*Aphrodite waved her hand.*
"Oh, please. Stand up. How did you get here?" *She asked.*

*Julius would had never allowed a mortal woman to speak to him like that, but since he was a Roman and the Romans believe that pissing of the Gods was considered bad, he followed Aphrodite's orders.*
"I do not know, Your Highness, I was in Gaul just moments ago, in the castra. I turned to Antonius, but he was not there and I was no longer in the tent, but here in a city."

*She groaned.*
"Damn it, someone switched the space-time continuum up on you!"
*She thought for a second.* "This is going to be extremely hard to explain to the council." *She said.*

*Julius did not try to understand what the goddess just said, but simply assumed that whatever happened to him was bad.*
"I am sorry, Your Highness, that this upsets you."

*She waved her hand flippantly.*
"Not your fault. I'm just rather pissed at whoever did this. This IS Gaul, I'm afraid."

((Marijke: *whistles innocently*))
*POSTING AS ZEH ROMAN GENERAL*
*Julius looked around the hall of the building he was standing in, still with a stoic expression on his face, though deep inside he was very very confused.*
"This ...."
*He pointed at the tacky golden statues, the strange clothing that people seemed to were and the architecture of the building.*
"... is Gaul? Impossible."

*She nodded.*
"Yup. Not as you know it, though. It's sort of a... parallell universe."
