Editing Sura (Spartacus: Blood and Sand) (section)

===Blood and Sand===
When Spartacus agrees to fight alongside the Romans, Sura pleads with him to reconsider, foretelling a dark prophecy. She warns that he will kneel before a red serpent, leading to great calamity. Upon his return, Spartacus finds Sura under attack by barbarians, and together they fend off their assailants. The two flee their village and take refuge in the wilderness.

Their safety is short-lived when Gaius Claudius Glaber, seeking revenge for Spartacus' defiance, captures and enslaves them during the night. Sura is torn from Spartacus' arms, screaming as she is carried away by Roman guards.

During her captivity, Sura is sold to a Syrian trader and set to be transported to Syria. At [[Quintus Lentulus Batiatus|Batiatus]]' request, Marcus Pelorus searches for Thracian women being sold in Syrian markets and purchases Sura just before his death. She eventually reaches Neapolis shortly after Batiatus and Spartacus have left for Capua.

Batiatus, wary of Spartacus' potential for rebellion if reunited with his wife, orders his servant, [[Aulus]], to mortally wound Sura en route to Capua. She arrives at the ludus barely alive and dies in Spartacus’ arms. Believing her caravan was attacked, Spartacus is unaware that her death was orchestrated by Batiatus to crush his desire for freedom.

Even after her death, Sura continues to appear in Spartacus’ dreams and visions, offering guidance. Following [[Varro (Spartacus)|Varro’s]] death, while recovering from his own injuries, Spartacus experiences a vision of both Sura and Varro. Sura urges him to address "old wounds," prompting him to investigate Aulus' injuries. Realizing the truth behind Sura’s death, Spartacus kills Aulus, reclaiming his resolve and true self.

Galvanized by Sura's final words and his discovery of the truth, Spartacus decides to lead a rebellion, setting his sights on confronting Batiatus directly.
