    Ulysses’ speech about the White Legs trying to emulate his dreads out of respect only to insult him beyond measure is one of the coolest details in lore building I’ve ever heard. His warring emotions over not wanting to alienate them because he needs them to do the Legion’s bidding, beginning to truly despise the Legion for what it did to his tribe and how destructively obsessive Caesar is with a new Rome, and his overwhelming revulsion at seeing his own trauma come to life before his eyes all culminating in him breaking down into nihilism is just chefs-kiss
