Christ, Sarantium is a den of vipers. Leontes seems a perfect match for his scheming wife. I dont see this ending well

I really love Valerius and Alixana’s dynamic. And for being a ‘lowborn dancer,’ she is very clever and aware of the intricacies of Sarantium. She even deduced Gisel’s little request to the Emperor. I worry for Crispin getting entangled in all this

I really like Scortius the charioteer. Well, Crispin will not be forgotten anytime soon. Not with that entrance into the court of Sarantium.

Well Crispin just made two strong enemies at the very least. Leontes and his wife Styliane. Yikes. The court of Sarantium is rife with plotting but what can one expect in an Empire of such magnitude?

Well Crispin is already making an ass of himself. God. He really has no self preservation.

Well Carullus is a hysterical asshole. Wow, it’s just one thing after another for these poor fuckers.

And I was just starting to like Linon. So, that’s how Zoticus bound life into metal. Curious. And it explains why Linon knew so much of the rituals. She was herself a sacrifice. God, I feel like crying and I dont know why. ugghhh

Oh my god, I am nailed to my seat. Ludan himself coming from the mist, and then Kasia following him. And now they’re all fucked. Oh god.

They make quite the party; Crispin, Kasia, and now Vargos. Interested to see what woes assail them on the Day of the Dead.

Crispin is clever. The ruse with the Permit, to get someone to steal it and then have Kasia be the hero. All very neat. And it worked out, surprisingly.
