Voiceovers:
-I'll always think of you as the sun. I pray your dream will shine on all men.
-You were the only one who never let me win. The only one who's ever been honest with me.
-Fear not, Hephaestion. We're at the beginning.
-We'll grow old, Hephaestion. Looking from this balcony - on this new world.
-I trust only you in this world.
-You're mortal. And they know it. And they forgive you, because you make them proud of themselves.
-Stay with me tonight, Hephaestion.
-Do you remember Achilles?
-He's my favourite. Because he loved Patroclus.
-I missed you. I need you.
-You're everything I care for.
-You'll never lose me, Hephaestion. I'll be with you, always. 'Til the end.
-My Alexander...
-Please don't leave me, Hephaestion!
-You're a great man.
-It is you I love, Hephaestion. No other.
-Patroclus died first.
-If you were to fall, Hephaestion, I would follow you down to the House of Death.
-I'm so jealous of losing you to this world that you want so badly.
-You saved me from myself.
-Did Patroclus doubt Achilles when they stood side-by-side at the Siege of Troy?
-I always believed, Alexander.
-He, too, is Alexander.
