*Caesar was on horseback, along with his Legates and Tribunes. He had finnally gotten the reinforcements from Rome, and was placing them along the walls of the city. He had initiated a cerfew in the city, no one was out at dark. The moon shined on Caesar, and the sheilds of his legionaries as he whatched them take positions on the walls.*
*Two of Caesars cohorts, about 3000 men, had been stationed at the gates of the city. Another two cohorts were along the walls, spread thiny. The last of the cohorts were keeping order in the city. Despite the liking of Cleopatra, there were often planned riots that would sometimes cause heavy damage.*
*The biggest of the riots had happend right infront of Caesar's headquaters, right after Ptolemy was exiled. He had lost 500 men, and two thousand Alexandrian citizens were killed from the battle. It was a blood bath of Romans and loyal Ptolemy citizens.*
