81. Jamasp

We know how Jamasp's story ends, he's often a blip in Kavad's reign but that doesn't mean we skip him. Tune in to find out what it's like to be a puppet and whether he actually had agency in his brother's usurpation.

80. Kavad I

Kavad rises to the throne in a very difficult situation, with enemies internal and external all around. But he has a solution...to all of it; all it will take is massive social upheaval and dueling a certain Justinian.

79. Balash

Oh no, everything is on fire and the empire is about to fall, will Balash save us all? Not really... But it's time to find the unlikeliest of heroes and give the nobles a grudging "well done".

78. Peroz I

Inviting a massive horde of nomads to invade your homeland is often a bad idea. Peroz can't see the harm in it; after all, when have the consequences of my actions ever affected *me*. Perhaps this one time...

76. Yazdegerd II

The middle Yazdegerd of the bunch pops up with a stable succession and an empire doing reasonably well. In his reign, he'll try to handle Armenia, the nobles, and deal with some new rumblings in the east.

74. Khosrow the Usurper

Starting out with an inauspicious name is Khosrow the Usurper who doesn't even get a number! However, you will be happy to hear that there's a story about usurpation, puppets, and extreme violence towards lions.

73. Shapur IV

Our previous good king for a while has been murdered by nobles so now we have to deal with the succession. Shapur is already king of Armenia so everything will be easy for him right? Right??
