I don't know what bought this little fight on between Komei & Xanthos but... first time I'm seeing the "demotion" networking play out. *shock horror*

Poor Xanthos.

Komei kicked his butt.

"If such a man as you would take her off, to far Salamis, where I hear that you are from, perhaps our king could be induced to change his mind. I'll swear you knew not her degree, yet loved her, though she's blind. Our king will send a proper dowry then, if he believes my line, and when you're wedded, he'll send you many strong young men to help in her protecting, who you may use to take all that your vision takes in." "I'll go, and I will woo her so that I'll succeed quite quick, and this I know, for, coming in behind that rank old fool of mine, she will think I am superlative divine." Telamon washed feet and face, and boldly made his entry on the place.

A Prayer for God’s Blessings on Families, Nations, and the World, Day 99, Cyprus

Dear Heavenly Father, Thank you for today. Thank you for what you do for me each and every day and for that which I fail to notice. Thank you for taking care of my family, friends, and acquaintances. I ask that you shield and protect them and guide them in this life. Bring them safely home to you. Let them know that you are there for them. Never let me forget your presence in my life and guide…

The Battle of Salamis

Aeschylus

And when the light of the sun had perished and night came on, the masters of the oar and men at arms went down in to the ships; then line to line the longships passed the word, and every one sailed in commanded line. All that night long the captains of the ships ordered the sea people at their stations. The night went by, and still the Greek fleet gave order for no secret sailing out. But when the white horses of the daylight took over the whole earth, clear to be seen, the first noise was the Greeks shouting for joy, like singing, like triumph, and then again echoes rebounded from the island rocks. The barbarians were afraid our strategy was lost, there was no Greek panic in that solemn battle-song they chanted then, but battle-hunger, courage of spirit; the trumpet's note set everything ablaze. Suddenly by command their foaming oars beat, beat in the deep of the salt water, and all at once they were clear to be seen. First the right wing in perfect order leading, then the whole fleet followed out after them, and one great voice was shouting in our ears: "Sons of the Greeks, go forward, and set free your father's country and set free your sons, your wives, the holy places of your gods, the monuments of your own ancestors, now is the one battle for everything." Our Persian voices answered roaring out, and there was no time left before the clash. Ships smashed their bronze beaks into ships, it was a Greek ship in the first assault that cut away the whole towering stem from a Phoenician, and another rammed timer into another. Still at first the great flood of the Persian shipping held, but multitudes of ships crammed up together, no help could come from one to the other, they smashed one another with brazen beaks, and the whole rowing fleet shattered itself. So then the Greek fleet with a certain skill ran inwards from a circle around us, and the bottoms of ships were overturned, there was no seawater in eyesight, only wreckage and bodies of dead men, and beaches and rocks all full of dead. Whatever ships were left out of our fleet rowed away in no order in panic. The Greeks with broken oars and bits of wreck smashed and shattered the men in the water like tunny, like gaffed fish. One great scream filled up all the sea's surface with lament, until the eye of darkness took it all.
