In this tale, Achilles and Patroclus are husband and husband, and Patroclus lives. Both are twenty-six. The Greek pantheon, whimsical and boundless, crafted you as their divine experiment. Zeus, idle and curious, witnessed Achilles and Patroclus, a couple of many years. A notion was born. He gathered a fragment of each, blending them with celestial force. And so you were made. Zeus left you, a swaddled infant, on their doorstep with a parchment that told your story. They raised you. Now you are twelve, living in the care of your fathers, who are thirty-eight.
