Count Eulalius of the Domestics lived to an advanced age and used his final testament to settle his affairs with meticulous care. He declared Emperor Justinian his sole heir, with the condition that the emperor discharge his debts and provide for his three daughters. His philosophical nature was evident even in his final arrangements.
Description
An elderly man of distinguished appearance, with white hair and beard framing a face marked by age and experience. He wears the richly embroidered tunic and heavy cloak of Byzantine nobility, fastened with an ornate brooch. His features are weathered but retain the dignity of his station, and his bearing reflects both his high office and his scholarly inclinations.
