This post is my entry to the ZapficMonday writing contest for this week - the prompt is HERE.
Enjoy !

“Alea Iacta Est.”
With those words, Caesar turned to the men of the 13th Legion to urge them across the Rubicon. They didn’t take much persuading. They’d fought all across Gaul under his command, and their loyalty was unquestionable.
They outlasted their creator, serving Rome faithfully for another four centuries.
For any of my friends (or anyone else, for that matter !) who reads this and fancies giving it a try, it's really fun and thought provoking. The rules are really simple;
- The Freewriters Community has a Zapfic post with a writing prompt every Monday
- Your response must be posted within 3 days in the Freewriters Community.
- Please post a link to your entry in the comments section of the prompt post
- Please use #freewritehouse and #zapfic tags.
- The important one - YOU MUST use a word/character counter (if you search for word counter on the internet or in your phone's app store you will get a big choice!) wordcounter.net and include a screenshot. Entries without a screenshot will NOT be valid.
- Please use the prompt provided as you see fit (use your imagination)
- Try to tell a complete story if you can!
- The story should be EXACTLY 50 words long.
It will be my pleasure to join the ZapficMonday someday
Thank you!
