This week, the Cups talk about three more Isu. These three are Hades, Poseidon, and Hermes--and the last three we'll be discussing this season. Don't worry, we'll revisit the Isu especially as we learn more about them in new Assassin's Creed content. We talk about these three and their specific contributions, and focus on how these three Isu are a little bit different than some of the others. *NEW:* We've just launched a Patreon!
