==== Party continues to assume / think ====
: possibly a reference to the legendary Bull statue from sacking of Carthage which was used for sacrifice.
: but reallistically - Nero is building an amphitheatre called the Statillus Tarus. 
: "the place of the Standing Bull" = amphitheatre called the Statillus Tarus

: nero is holding inagural games on the last day of Saturnalia in this new amphitheatre.

: pontifect diary references the 'disaster repeating' ref Fidenea
: pontifect diary references the disaster in five days , last day saturanlia
: "one who is many" could be the demon who turns into many beetles terga encountered 'earlier'

: but what is the [http:?VengeanceOfCharun "vengeance of Charun"] we have to exact on "one who is many"
