Every time they were reincarnated, the two souls were never apart.

They first time they found each other they were Achilles and Patroculus.

The second time they were Alexander and Hephaistion, fascinated with the story of their past lives.

The third time, they were Merlin and Arthur, the young heroes of Camelot, destinies entwined with each other's.

And on and on the two souls would continue finding each other in each life time. And each one was tragic.

But still, I hope that one day they will get their happily ever after.

Visiting ancient Athens can sometimes be therapeutic... 

[poet-by-heart]

Hephaistion : I've always believed, Alexander. But this seems so much bigger than us.

Alexander : Did Patroclus stare at Achilles when they stood side by side at the siege of troy?

Hephaistion : Patroclus died first.

Alexander : If you do... if you were to fall Hephaistion, I will avenge you, and follow you down to the house of death.

Hephaistion : I would do the same.
