In a vast world where the beauty of Persian culture clashes with the terror of Mongol hooves, the sky shines with Chinggis Khan's sun, setting our hearts ablaze!
It's so bittersweet that Sitara dreams of reuniting with Muhammad, who is actually alive and well in Nishapur, but neither of them knows it yet. While the Ilkhanate army under Hulagu is wreaking havoc, their surprisingly calm demeanor feels so real, and you can almost picture the blue wolves of the steppe marching forward with thundering hooves. I hear some people look down on Islamic culture, but I'm really enjoying this world where Persian elegance and Mongol brutality intersect, especially with the Mongolian dialogue adding to the experience. Anis's dignified choice to end her own life was powerful, and I can't wait to see what kind of life Sitara will lead next. It was an episode that conveyed Sitara's heartache perfectly, balancing despair with hope.
