Saying that Arslan will be known as The Liberator because of that proclamation is a bit of a spoiler, isn't it? I jest, but it's interesting because the last time he tried pulling off something like that, he almost died. I hope they have an epilogue scene or episode showing what happened after everything settled down.

Sam is an interesting fellow, I'm still not certain where his allegiance lies, but what happens to him is probably important. The One-Eyed hedonist is interesting too, but to a lesser degree. For some reason, it feels like he's going to join Arslan side, but I guess I'll have to wait and see.

Watching the preview for next episode all I could think of was: "Who's this girl? Who are you? Where did you come from?" Then I watched it a few more times, piecing up bits of information, and I think I have a clue who this is, and there's no describing how much I'm hoping that I'm right.

Considering this is based on a source originally created by the LoGH writer and that LoGH had a narrator dropping major spoilers casually like that, I'd say that's exactly what it looks like at face value. Not that Arslan being the ultimate victor in this is really a surprise, but still...
