Bookmark Notes:
"Someday quite soon, they’ll both go home. They’ll never see each other again, most likely, and Odysseus will still carry Diomedes with him for the rest of his life."
//
"Doesn’t matter, of course. One day very soon, if they both survive, Odysseus will go home to his beautiful wife and his beloved island, and the only time he’ll think about Diomedes will be when he tells war stories to his son. Meanwhile, Diomedes will go back to a wife who hates him and a city that barely accepts him as king, and he’ll think about Odysseus every fucking day."
