Darius is one of my favorite secondary characters, obviously. For all his saintliness, he's a manipulative SOB when it comes to Duncan and his pupils, and makes such a lovely counterpart to Methos. Darius/Methos is almost my OTP.
There are huge, gaping plot-holes in this episode, but I love it anyway. The runes were a dim-witted and inaccurate device, though they effectively captured Duncan's fancy. It's not credible that Grayson would have waited so long to exact his revenge, particularly if Darius were wandering beyond Holy Ground during the Napoleonic wars.
Tessa was wonderful and Richie bearable and the climactic fight was grand.
