	Greetings and salutations, my dear legenders.
	Today I thought to recommend a book that my friend Elessar Elessar Music recommended to me.
	So I read The Darkening Age, The Christian Destruction of the Classical World a while back, and I found it quite interesting and well written.
	It isn't overly anti-Christian, it just brings to light some events during the centuries after the birth of Christ that can be interesting to behold when talking about the Christian and classical legacy of Europe.
	And one thing in particular I thought was very interesting, and that is in chapter 6, the most magnificent building in the world.
	And apparently, we can actually go to this building in this day and age, even though it doesn't exist anymore.
	And that is the Temple of Serapis in Alexandria.
	So, let's head on into Alexandria in Assassin's Creed Origins.
	So, here we see my aesthetic character being out and about in Alexandria.
	So, we're actually at the reconstructed Temple of Serapis.
	Now, in the book, The Order, she describes how the Christians decided to tear down this temple of false worship.
	And obviously, quite a tragic thing when magnificent buildings are disappearing like this under religious intolerance.
	So, anyway, I thought to just show this building here and now, and I think it's really cool, tips Pickelhaube, to Ubisoft for including it in the game.
	I thought it was a really neat detail, especially since figuring out that this building was actually present in the game.
	So, now you have hopefully learned something new that the most magnificent building, and the author in the book she elaborates quite a bit upon it.
	So, now you know it existed, but it does not exist anymore.
	And it might be prudent in this day and age when Notre Dame has just almost been destroyed, that we can appreciate ancient and beautiful buildings.
	And then, lastly, since we are already in Assassin's Creed Origins, I thought to quickly recommend the game.
	I think it is much better than Odise, even though I made the Let's Play series in Odise, but I played the whole game, and I must say, I'm not overly impressed, especially compared with how good Origins was.
	So, definitely, if you haven't played Assassin's Creed Origins, you should do so.
	It captures the feel perfectly, and it's a very beautiful game.
	And additional points for including this fine temple.
	So, anyway, I thought to make a short video illuminating you to this fact, and yeah, I wish you all a good day ahead.
	And if you do want to check out the book, it is an interesting read.
	So, yeah, thanks for watching.
	XXO.

Greetings and salutations, my dear legenders.

Today I thought to recommend a book that my friend Elessar Elessar Music recommended to me.

So I read The Darkening Age, The Christian Destruction of the Classical World a while back, and I found it quite interesting and well written.

It isn't overly anti-Christian, it just brings to light some events during the centuries after the birth of Christ that can be interesting to behold when talking about the Christian and classical legacy of Europe.

And one thing in particular I thought was very interesting, and that is in chapter 6, the most magnificent building in the world.

And apparently, we can actually go to this building in this day and age, even though it doesn't exist anymore.

And that is the Temple of Serapis in Alexandria.

So, let's head on into Alexandria in Assassin's Creed Origins.

So, here we see my aesthetic character being out and about in Alexandria.

So, we're actually at the reconstructed Temple of Serapis.

Now, in the book, The Order, she describes how the Christians decided to tear down this temple of false worship.

And obviously, quite a tragic thing when magnificent buildings are disappearing like this under religious intolerance.

So, anyway, I thought to just show this building here and now, and I think it's really cool, tips Pickelhaube, to Ubisoft for including it in the game.

I thought it was a really neat detail, especially since figuring out that this building was actually present in the game.

So, now you have hopefully learned something new that the most magnificent building, and the author in the book she elaborates quite a bit upon it.

So, now you know it existed, but it does not exist anymore.

And it might be prudent in this day and age when Notre Dame has just almost been destroyed, that we can appreciate ancient and beautiful buildings.

And then, lastly, since we are already in Assassin's Creed Origins, I thought to quickly recommend the game.

I think it is much better than Odise, even though I made the Let's Play series in Odise, but I played the whole game, and I must say, I'm not overly impressed, especially compared with how good Origins was.
