Medes
The Medes or Medians were a group of Indo-Iranian-speaking people from central Asia who migrated westwards and entered northern Iran around the end of the 2nd millennium BCE. They settled in the highlands of Zagros (Zagreus in Greek) and, by the end of the 7th century BCE, founded the kingdom of Media (Mada in Old Persian).

WIP of my imperial heavy armour from Skyrim. That leather vest took about 35 hours.... I spared myself the pain and bought a chainmail, because my frustration capacity is low and making chainmail is a chore. Lets see if I will get judged for that XD

Medes islets in front of the coast of L’Estartit (Comarques Gironines, Catalonia).
According to the legend, the famous pirate Barbarossa (Khair ed-Din) died in this islets after being chased by the Pope’s float. When the Pope’s men captured him, they killed him and threw his body overboard. For this reason, Barbarossa’s body rests eternally under these waters and, depending on the angle that the sun’s rays hit the water, you can see a shine: Barbarossa’s saber 🗡️.
(In reality, Barbarossa died in Constantinoble and is buried there.)

Smthn smthn Eugenides asking Costis at the end of koa 'will you serve me and my god?' and when Costis says yes, Gen says to him 'then come out' (knowing that you'll never die of a fall unless he drops you etc etc etc) vs. Christ calling Lazarus from the tomb and everything that entails

Do you like Eurovision?
Of course you do
Would you like to read a book whose plot is basically Eurovision in space?
Of course you would
Allow me to introduce...
Space Opera by Catherynne M. Valente is exactly that: Eurovision in space. It's called the Metagalactic Grand Prix, and it's an intergalactic song contest where all sapient species must sing. After a huge war almost tore the galaxy apart they came up with the Metagalactic Grand Prix in order to bring everyone together in the spirit of peace. Yes, just like in Eurovision. The Metagalactic Grand Prix is meant to foment unity and understanding. It's also and all out galactic glittery extravaganza. And it's also how they decide if a species is sapient or not (after all, music is a language that we all know how to speak*). This year humanity is brought into the intergalactic stage, and our sapience is in question, so we gotta send our best to space Eurovision to prove we don't deserve to be wiped out. Our best, however, happen to be dead or unavailable, so the chosen ones end up being a one-hit-wonder glamrock band called Decibel Jones and the Absolute Zeroes. But everything should be fine, right? After all, all they need to do to save Earth is... not end up in last place and avoid being killed until the actual show starts.
This book is a fun, glittery space opera (ba dum tss) filled with Eurovision references (the chapters are all titled after Eurovision songs!) that is an absolute must-read for any Eurovision fans
*Yes, that's a direct quote from the 2016 Eurovision Interval Act song Story of ESC (What is Eurovision?), sung by Måns Zelmerlöw and Petra Mede

Unpopular (?) opinion: i don’t think Loreen is that good this time around. She can sing for sure, but the song is not as good as Euphoria, the act is kind of boring and her nails creep me out
(on the other hand we might get Petra Mede back? because the presentation this year is terrible)

I hear you want to talk about The Queen's Thief 👀?
YES PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEE
THE PART WHERE
Standing in the stirrups, he called again, roaring at the top of his lungs, "Erondites!" And a bolt of lightning cracked the sky. It struck a tent in the Mede camp. Canvas blossomed into black smoke and red flame. As the tent burned, Eugenides said to the stunned Mede, "That is all the parley that happens today."
THE ROAAAAAR
IT WAS RAW AND HOARSE AND LIVID AND FULL OF AUTHORITY AND SO PERSONAL I JUST KNOW IT
THE PART WHERE HE WAS KING
