But if I'm supposed to believe Christian is a Romanian teenager, then he should've known and experienced the 'Falcons of the Fatherland.'

"He tries to call out that they must not bury him, they must not cut him open, that there's been a terrible, terrible mistake."
That's a very relatable fear for me. Oh god, it gives me the chills!

"What will you say to the God you despise," Vasya whispered, breathing short and thin with fear, "when yoy go into the darkness? All men must die."
This is so Game of Thrones. Valar Morgulis!
