Peisistratus of Orchomenus

Peisistratus or Peisitratos or Pisistratus (/paɪˈsɪstrətəs/; Ancient Greek: Πεισίστρατος) was king of Arcadian Orchomenus at the time of the Peloponnesian War, who became the object of the hatred of the oligarchical party, and was murdered in an assembly of the senate. To avoid detection his body was cut to pieces, and the parts of it carried away by the senators under their robes. Tlesimachus, the son of Peisistratus, who was privy to the conspiracy, quieted the populace, who were incensed at the disappearance of their king, by a story of his having appeared to him in a superhuman form after he had left the earth. (Plut. Parall. vol. ii. p. 313, b.)

Notes
    gollark: I guess if it did, say, 5 at once then it only has to simulate itself to a recursion depth of 5, and I'm sure you can apply caching.
    gollark: But short-duration ones would be annoying.
    gollark: Well, it could do that easily as long as it doesn't try to do simulate itself doing future reminders during that time.
    gollark: And if I used the secret non-GDPR-compliant datasets I have all on all users here people might get annoyed.
    gollark: The AI one is most tractable, but I don't have... any hardware budget, really, and the privacy implications are problematic.
