"Skip the pleasantries Leyden. You called me here for a business proposal. Let's hear it."

"I need you to pretend to be my fiancé at an upcoming occasion. People are starting to ask a lot of questions about me and Eric..."

The Red Beard of the Pasha

When Ali Pasha ruled Ioannina, St. Kosmas of Aitolia prophesied to him about all the territories he would conquer.

Ali Pasha was told by the saint, “You will become a great man, you will conquer all of Albania, you will subjugate Preveza, Parga, Souli, Delvino, Gardiki, and the very stronghold of Kurt Pasha. You will leave a great name in the world. Also, you will go to Constantinople... but with a red beard. This is the will of Divine Providence.”

Saint Kosmas was martyred in August 24, 1779 after he was accused of being a Russian agent against the Ottomans. Indeed, Ali Pasha went on to become the sole ruler of Epiros, subjugating all of Albania and parts of Greece.

In January 1822, Ali Pasha was beheaded by his adversaries and his head was paraded on a silver platter throughout the streets of Ioannina, before it was sent to Constantinople. Thus came the fulfillment of Saint Kosmas’s prophecy that Ali Pasha of Ioannina would enter Constantinople with a beard made crimson by his own blood.

Kokkinopilos hills, Preveza, Hellas photo by @dimitris_patsis

The appearance of the Kokkinopilos hills (lit. "red clay" hills) is an unusual geological and natural phenomenon. The rains turned this low terra rossa (iron oxides with clay) plateau into an alternating landscape of hills and small ravines.

It's a red spot amidst the greenery and the light brown soil of the area. Important findings from the Paleolithic and Bronze Age were found near Kokkinopilos.
