'It is not for them to say what I will do.”

“So Leda's daughters,
two lethal brides,
will twice and thrice wed.
One will launch Greece in a thousand ships,
her beauty the ruin of her land,
and the men sent to rescue her
will come back ashes and bones.
The other, the queen hell-bent on revenge,
will rise in the house of Mycenae,
loyal to those who revere her,
savage to those who oppose her.”

“If I could use every skill I learned from the back-alley criminals, I would have.
How dare he speak of her. How dare he speak of lost children when he made a choice to lose his, when I would have taken my own life a thousand times over to save her.
I would've undertaken ask his labors without blinking for even a chance of saving mine, when he did them to forget his.”
