- Storytime at the Symposium
- To set the scene, we have 3 war buddies having a little drinking party and reminiscing about their time during the Persian war.Of course they are accompanied by their eromenos.
- By the gods, what a day it was at Thermopylae!
- Did you see the Persian horde? They stretched as far as the eye could see, their banners waving like a storm on the horizon.
- Aye, a day that will be sung in the halls of our descendants for ages to come.
- Indeed, brother. But our King Leonidas stood firm, like a lion guarding his pride.
- We fought as one, a wall of bronze against the tide of Xerxes' army.
- And what a sight it was when we marched out, shields locked, spears gleaming in the sun. The very earth shook beneath our feet.
- Here we go again
- Yet, despite our valor, the numbers were against us. Wave after wave they came, relentless as the sea.
- The sea fought back too and we held our ground, didn't we? Even as our numbers dwindled, we fought with the fury of Achilles himself.
- And when our spears shattered, we fought with swords, with fists, with teeth if we had to.
- Until the last man fell. But even in death, we bought Greece precious time.
- They will sing songs of our sacrifice, of our bravery until the end of days.
- Aye, for every Persian that fell, ten more took his place. But they will remember us, won't they? The Three Hundred who defied an empire.
- Agreed. Let us raise a toast to those who fell beside us, and to Greece, our beloved land.
- Then let us rest now, brothers. Our duty is done, but our legend will live on.
- To Greece!
- Greece!!
- Greece!!
- The End
