Zeno 1. Is this a number? 2, Is this a game character? 3. Is this an emperor? 4, Is this a place?
Who can guess these days what the answer might be? Or it might be all of them. Definitely Zeno is the name of an emperor in the Byzantine era -this was the time of Goths and Vandals, so the name Zeno fits in.
While it isn't a number that I know of, it is the name of a mathematics program.
And there are Zeno's paradoxes, devised by Greek philosopher Zeno of Elea. There are nine surviving paradoxes preserved in Aristotle's Physics - the three famous ones are Achilles and the tortoise, the Dichotomy argument and the arrow in flight. They are covered in Wikipedia HERE. I dismiss the point in each one and am clearly not meant for philosophy.
There is a place in Fandom -called Zeon. This might be more popular than Zeno, as spellcheck keeps changing Zeno to Zeon. The story of Zeon goes like this:
"When Zeon Zum Deikun, the leader of the Republic, became gravely ill in UC 0068, he mentioned only one name on his deathbed: "Degwin Zabi." The people of Side 3 took this to mean that Deikun was naming Degwin to succeed him as leader of the Republic in that year. After being appointed as the leader of the Republic of Zeon, Degwin Zabi adopted the title of Sodo, meaning "Lord," and was referred to from them on as Degwin Sodo Zabi."
I seem to find the plots from the fantasy world and the ancient world very similar. Maybe Zeno, Byzantine Emperor, inspired the game Zeon.
