Remember the puppy with the flamethrower looking for a home that he could burn down? Well he’s all grown up, found a place to call home, and he still has the flamethrower. Everything in Macedon is just fine… Hi, Ptolemy Keraunos!

Imagine a puppy. Now give it a flame thrower. Now kick the puppy out into the cold night and tell it that anything flammable is the reason it has no family. That is Ptolemy Keraunos. Have a nice day.

Oh man, part 2 of the golden boy! The great thing about Seleukos is that he’s the gift that keeps on giving, especially when he’s giving Antigonos a headache. Conquests, a weird story about a lion and a sweaty man, Lovecraftian-esque coffee, and more!
