    Summary

    Being woken up in the middle of the night sucks. Especially when you're woken up by a goddess with no patience, demanding for you to get on a ship and go. No one tells Diomedes anything. Definitely not Athena when she's panicking.

     

    Menelaus never stops crying, does he?

    Summary

    Telemachus had long grown accustomed to life without a father. He had learned to navigate the jeers and constant harassment of the suitors, until even his own home, the grand palace that should have been his sanctuary, felt like a prison. In the absence of authority, he'd gotten used to his own freedom, answering to no one. But all of that begins to unravel when his father returns ..not alone, but accompanied by a god.

    Summary

    Inside the temple of Zeus, Neoptolemus stomps towards the supplicating king of Troy, uncaring of the potential wrath of the gods as he drags Priam to the altar.

    “No, please!” Andromache pleads. Astyanax is tucked away in her arms, shielded from the horror he is about to witness, and Helen is glad that the boy lacks the age and wisdom to understand why his mother cries.

    Helen holds Andromache as she sobs in her arms, and both women watch, unable to do anything as Priam struggles against the unrelenting grip the raging son of Achilles has on his arm, twisting and turning on the floor in an attempt to gain some leverage, but it was in vain.

    Helen watches in horrific silence as Neoptolemus beheads the king before the altar of Zeus. Blood squirts out of Priam’s bare neck, his face frozen in a permanent state of tantalizing shock and fear as it’s thrown across the room. Neoptolemus drops the body, letting it plop to the floor in a sickening thud, before turning to Andromache.

    ***

    Or: what if Helen was at Zeus' temple with Priam? (I don't remember if Astyanax and Andromache were there or not, but let's say they were there too.)
