– Your friend seems to be a true connoisseur of theatrical art? -Posutil, clasping his teeth from fucking Thessal, because he understood what the young man was talking about, and it would be very easy to remain without a head in this production. But the actor’s ambition has taken its toll. – I understand that here, in the course of the play’s action, is the change of the groom?
“You are an experienced minister of Melpomena, you understand,” added Ptolemy, laughing. – Give the recipient my letter.
“I agree with your arguments and I cannot argue,” agreed Thessal.
“Then here is your money, and hurry to do your job, my wingless Eros,” Lagid joked, turning his horse to return to Pella.
Thessal, being an experienced pimp, but he had to deal with such questions several times, waited until Ptolemy was out of sight, changed his appearance, put on rags and glued his beard, and also went to Pella, but to Philip. Passing through a convoy of guards, he secretly notified the king and called Philip to the house of servants.
– Hello the king, I will not torment your impatience, and I will say that your dear son, too, set out to marry, but all the same Arriedeeva bride. Sorry for the insolence, but so Ada will become a real Spartan with two husbands, because her beauty eclipses the sun, and her wealth blinds her eyes, – but looking up at Philip, he saw that he first blushed with rage, but then the roar of his laughter struck even the experienced an actor.
“We’ll play the next comedy with you, Thessal, it will be called Thessal Chained.” What do you think? – and in awe, Philip raised his hands to the sky.
“I love Aeschylus, the king, but the beginning, I don’t quite like it, is too tragic.. – the actor made a mournful grimace.
– No, you do not understand, I’m talking about a comedy, I, of course, not Aristophanes, and not a new friend of the son Linkey, but such a plan, and he briefly outlined the contents of the main character, Thessal’s face changed before our eyes, and then broke into a wide smile. – Well, you understand?
– Completely. All sovereign do.
A week later, when Alexander was reading his beloved Homer after a horse dressage with friends, his father quickly entered his quarters,
– Hey, son. You I will overcame, not only read the Iliad, but you also want to become a storyteller, the king said with a tense expression on his face.
– What are you talking about, father? – the young man was surprised.
“Look, I have your letter here, passed by kind people, agents of Parmenion,” Philip replied with a grin.
Alexander immediately recognized his epistle for Pixodar, and realized that the plan was crowned with failure.
