Greetings all,
 
Today we reflect on the passing of Theophylact, the son and co-ruler of Emperor Michael I on January 15th in 849 AD:


He and his father had been exiled to Plate Island in 813 AD after being deposed in a revolt led by Leo the Armenian. Theophylact had entered a monastery under the name Eustratius.

-Marcus Cassius Julianus
