The second exile sent him to Pityus on the far edge of the Black Sea, and the guards had instructions that made the journey itself the punishment: he was marched in heat and rain, denied rest, and kept moving when he was plainly too ill to walk. He died at Comana in Pontus before reaching the destination. The account of his last words — glory to God for all things — is old and consistent across the sources. In 438 his relics were brought back to Constantinople and Theodosius II, the son of the emperor who had exiled him, met the coffin and asked forgiveness on his parents' behalf; this dataset does not yet hold that translation. No place is written on this event: Comana in Pontus is not in places.csv, and reaching for a plausible-looking name in that file is the mistake this walk has now made four near-misses on.
To remove a deposed bishop far enough that his congregation would stop rioting about it.
A death on the road, and a body brought back thirty years later by the son of the emperor who sent him away.
