Oh completely. In the age of smart phones we take communication for instantaneous. It used to be ages. Heck even 10 years ago communication was so much slower. Now we can watch videos order food talk to our friends around the globe and have never even gotten out of bed. I wonder what future historians will think of this age in retrospect. The budding age of hypertech. But I digress, I can't wait to see what this new horror is. I assumed it was a disease. Darn it comment spoilers.
A comet you say? I bet Justinian wished he had lived in more enlightened times.

Curse you, cliffhangering a centuries old story!

Aaaa cliffhanger ď

Couldn't help ourselves. But hey, glad people got invested enough to want to know what happens!
Extra History
Nothing like a cliffhanger to make you count every day of the next week!

:D :D :D

It's gonna get faster from here! Like a roller coaster that spent all this time slowly climbing to the top...

I'm hoping to see Chosroes or Khosrow gamertags stirring up nonsense in multiplayer games.
Extra History
When military defeat isn't humiliating enough for your opponent, do things the Chosroes way!
Extra History
Glad you enjoyed!

And another reminder of just how many things got screwy in the ancient world simply for lack of good communication. Thank you, telephones!

I'd wathced a League of Legends video announcing their new serial killer character right before the final preview of this episode, so those lines made me think of a serial killer on the loose in Constantinople - even though I already knew that's not what it is!
Extra History
Comments section is spoiling it too. ;) Read with care! But a book would be a really fun endeavor... maybe someday!

Walpole setting the stage for his own eventual ascendancy to power in Britain. First step, dismantle other empires...
Extra History
Oh, why that's only Justinian's Flea...

What are these black spots appearing all over my arm.

My money is on Walpole. If Extra history has learnt me anything; its always Walpole.
Martin Ockovsky
Why comet, why?! Amazing as always. Tenkju <3

What? Cliffhangers? How dare you!? Now I have to stay away from Wikipedia for a week lest I spoil myself... You guys ever thinking of writing a book or something? The storytelling is frankly superb and it's really a shame if you never get to utilize it to the fullest extent.

@#$%! Cliffhangers!!!
Amy Reynolds
GAH! Cliffhanger much?

Can't help wondering if it's leprosy, that terrible dragon of the old world.
The Cayute
That cliff hanger, dog....too bad it's gonna end up being disease and not some badass wandering bladesmaster XD

On the first part of the episode: this is why it's important to communicate with your soldiers. Seems that have gone wrong because of that evil lady Miss Communication.
Stormy Weather
man! That ending! ^u^

He may no longer be the King of Persia, but I don't think anyone will replace this guy as King of Trolls any time soon.
Jane
I had also planned to comment on this "hanging off a cliff" ending. quite intense
David May
I kind of want to build a shrine to that Persian King now
Christopher Nau
Damon you and your cliffhangers!
Markus Berglund
That cliffhanger! :-)

Clue for next week: Antonine, Cyprian, Justinian. It's crazy we're still in the first 15 years of Justinian's reign. Another 23 to go!
