Yes, this woman definitely spoke Latin fluently, making her at least a citizen of Rome. Though how she carried herself from what he'd seen so far, perhaps she had a higher station than just citizen. Still, she seemed to be trying to be helpful, so that was something Hercules would be thankful for.
It took him a few moments to correctly translate what she said to him. Okay, so she wanted to help him and her name was Gaia. And she seemed to pick up that he wasn't a Latin speaker. This was progress. Progress was good. "Yes. I am a bit lost actually. And yes again, I'm not too familiar with Latin. Hercules," he said, introducing himself. His sentences were a bit choppy and slow, but he wanted to make sure he was saying what he wanted and not some strange phrase, like the ducks need beer or something.
"Uh, where...am I?" he asked. "Rome?" He hoped this wasn't Rome as he had no desire to cross paths again with Julius Caesar. No doubt the man was still bitter about his loss in Eire.
