Julius came looking for something? underground? while he was searching for it, he found Anthony's corpse instead? He freaked out? Brutus started closing the grave without realizing Julius was in there? Cassius had a part to play in - Anthony's death? Julius's death? Was one of the people's partners? |

Julius came looking for something? in an abstract,philosophical sense, maybe, but otherwise, No underground? No... there's something here to explore. while he was searching for it, he found Anthony's corpse instead? he did see Anthony's corpse instead of something else, Yes. He freaked out? at this point, Yes. Brutus started closing the grave without realizing Julius was in there? Yes Cassius had a part to play in - Anthony's death? Julius's death? Was one of the people's partners? No to all. Hint: Cassius has a very minor, passive role in this. |

Did Julius just take a walk? Is the time of the day relevant? Is it night? day? Did he fall into a pit (which was not intended to be a grave) by mistake? |

Was the pit in which Anthony lay meant to be a grave at all? Were they in a graveyard? Did Brutus know Anthony was dead? |

Was there a reason why Brutus could not hear Julius shouting for help? Is this because there was some other deafening noise? Is that relevant? |

Was there a reason why Brutus could not hear Julius shouting for help? Yes Is this because there was some other deafening noise? not really deafening, but enough to prevent Brutus from hearing Julius, Yes. Good question. Is that relevant? Yes-ish. You basically got it, aside from the specifics of the noise. |

Was any of them a sexton? Brutus? Cassius? Julius? Did Brutus close the grave by throwing earth in (as would be the case in an ordinary grave)? As to the noise - was it a siren? Human voice? Did it last seconds? Minutes? Longer? |

Was any of them a sexton? Brutus? Cassius? Julius? No to all, but somewhat OTRT Did Brutus close the grave by throwing earth in (as would be the case in an ordinary grave)? YES As to the noise - was it a siren? Human voice? No to both. Did it last seconds? Minutes? Longer? probably minutes to hours (I think). at long last... RECAP (These are somewhat, but not necessarily, in chronological order.) The time period is "no-ish"ly relevant. Currently, it is daytime. Julius is underground, in a normal grave, in a normal graveyard. Julius does not see Brutus and Cassius. This is Anthony's grave. He knew Anthony very well. Julius is not afraid of him. Julius was not there for the purpose of seeing Anthony. Anthony died of natural causes, hours before "this incident" happened. Julius freaked out (was surprised, shocked, panicked, and frightened) when he saw Anthony's dead corpse. He was expecting to see something else. Brutus purposefully closed the grave by throwing earth in. Brutus did not know Julius was in the grave. Julius screamed. Brutus was unable to hear him. Julius concluded he was going to die. He died of suffocation.

Was Julius there to look for/at a corpse? Was it Cassius's? Is it important to find the nature of relationship between Julius and Anthony? Any other relationships important? If so, Which ones (list of C(4,2) possibilities)? |

I forgot something in the recap... Anthony's profession is VERY relevant. Julius's is "yes...ish"ly relevant. Was Julius there to look for/at a corpse? No Was it Cassius's? errr... FA, but... Is it important to find the nature of relationship between Julius and Anthony? Yes, very much Any other relationships important? If so, Which ones (list of C(4,2) possibilities)? The most important relationship is between Julius and Anthony. There is a relevant relationship between Anthony and Brutus. Between Julius and Cassius, there is a "similarity relationship (?)." (I'll leave it at that for now.) Those are the relevant ones. Others may/could exist, but aren't too important. (I partially answered an aspect of this before, but I'll add this: None of these relationships are blood/family.)

Any of these relationships - best friends? master and servant? professional such as service provider and client? Legal heir? Enemies? |

Were Anthony and Julius colleagues at work? whew... in a vague manner of speaking, I suppose... in the traditional sense, No Were they of similar ages? Was one of them much older? Which? irrel, they're both adults How long had they known each other - since birth? For a few years? most likely months to years, but probably not since birth (although I guess it's possible). Anthony's occupation - was it related to - the arts? - leadership/ politics? - war? - science? No to these - service? Yes, in this field |

So did Anthony and Julius have the same/similar occupations? Were they employed? Clearing up some haziness around Anthony's death... He died of natural causes? It was not an accident? Julius was not expecting Anthony to die soon? |

So did Anthony and Julius have the same/similar occupations? Anthony and Julius did not, but... (keep going) Were they employed? "they" weren't, but... (keep going) Clearing up some haziness around Anthony's death... He died of natural causes? It was not an accident? It was natural causes. The exact natural cause was a heart attack. That particular aspect is not as relevant as other things, such as your next question: Julius was not expecting Anthony to die soon? Exactly. |
