(This was apparently a cosplayer at DragonCon this year.)

    What are you going on about…?

    The only reason we know about Ea-nāṣir is indeed that he apparently kept the complaints he received in an archive in his house; from the linked Wikipedia article:

    Other tablets have been found in the ruins believed to be Ea-nāṣir’s dwelling. These include a letter from a man named Arbituram who complained he had not received his copper yet, while another said he was tired of receiving bad copper.

    And, as the article also mentions, the whole thing became a widespread meme once it hit reddit, which explains why someone would cosplay as him.

      I am talking about how the comments made me think about stuff that is not linked to the actual story.
