(Well, whatever you want... I'll post here, then you can decide ) "Oh no, you're exaggerating, my love. I can not be greater than Athens. It is the most beautiful city I have ever seen." Daphne replied, she loved Alcander giving her compliments, although she always refused to accept them as being true. Again now the breathtaking odour of the olive trees surrounded Daphne, she had to smile. Olive trees were one of the main symbols of Athens, alongside with the owl, representing Athene. Therefor, whenever this odour filled her senses she was reminded of home, of this city. How she would miss it, once she would not smell it she would feel rather cold and lonely, homesick. So now, the royal couple was decending the small path back to where they came from, the palace, but had not made further plans. She wondered if Alcander truly wouldn't have any more political issues to take care of this day, on the other hand she was relieved she had him entirely for her own this bright afternoon.

As Alessia had come to visit Athens on the behalf of Scythia, Alcander had spoken great importance with her. After the words of each other interest had been exchanged, he had decided to show her around. The first he lead her too, was Acropolis. The great monument on top of the mountain, were all gods of Greece was worshiped and appreciated. A large wall surrounded it, but damaged after the last wars with Persia. Hopefully the new architect that was hired would rebuild it all, with the help of his plans and the workers who ready was to earn money.
Gentle as Alcander and Alessia approached, the gates opened before them and inside they went. "A few years, thought it got destroyed after the past wars. However as you see, we are rebuilding it."The king answered the queen`s question, looking at her with a smile as he walked beside her. Thinking she was a great woman, as she was beautiful and wise.
