Absolutely lovely! Lovely! "Cast to the lapdogs" indeed! And the crackle of energy from Alexander is just brilliant!

Small quibble, I think Athens's long walls had been destroyed by the time Alexander went there, during the Spartan occupation, by order of Lysander. Yup, have just googled it. 404 BC.

Ah, nice spotting. Though with Alexandros being kind of a history geek, I figured he'd have wanted to check out what was left of their once-vaunted defenses. Heh, and I just called Alexandros a geek.

Thanks. ;)

“I’ll know where I’m going,” he said. “As soon as I get there, I’ll know.”
“How?”
“You’ll be there.”
“I’m here now. I’m always here.”
“That,” Alexandros told him, in a voice as sure and as limitless and as intimate as his eyes, “is because you’re my empire too. You’re the heart of it. You have to be.”

*meep*

Wonderful!

*tries again - maybe there's one behind a cut or something*

*sighs, rereads Comfort from the Cold *

Hehehe. Right, yes, okay, I get the picture. I know I've been neglecting this journal stuff, but other things have this way of coming up ... you know how it is. Haven't been neglecting my writing, but that's a different thing from these little scribbles. Don't abandon all hope yet though, one way or another I'll get to it.
