“Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others. And having no respect he ceases to love.”

— Fyodor Dostoevsky, from “The Brothers Karamazov”, originally published c. 1879–1880.

''I would recognise you in total darkness, were you mute and I deaf. I would recognise you in another lifetime entirely, in different bodies, different times."

-Song of Achilles

Do you ever think about how Chiron never saw Patroclus and Achilles again? Sure he heard the tales of the Rage of Achilles and Patroclus' Sacrafice. Sure, he did his job, he trained them to be heroes and so they died as such. But to him they will always be boys made for music and medicine. He will stay timeless and their names will stay timeless and everything will be as the Fates intended and he will continue to live on Pelion awaiting the next hero to send to their doom, and he will never seen Achilles and Patroclus again. He trains and raises heroes and he'll train and raise more and then they'll leave and leave him and his life will continue. He does not wait, he has done this song and dance too many times to be that foolish, but he does wish, as he lives on Mount Pelion with the ghosts of boys yet known to the world, boys who only embraced music and medicine.

Achilles’s room was as we had left it, except for the cot, which had been removed in our absence. I was glad; it was an easy excuse, in case anyone asked why we shared a bed. We reached for each other, and I thought of how many nights I had lain awake in this room loving him in silence. Later, Achilles pressed close for a final, drowsy whisper. “If you have to go, you know I will go with you.” We slept.

The Song of Achilles - color keys

I’m trying to work on my coloring/framing, so I thought it’d be fun to try some color key type drawings with a whole book!
