"It was the last day of their month visit to Sparta; the feast was enormous and well cooked. The people celebrated the agreed new found peace between the two nations; everyone could sleep peacefully and bed their woman without any second thought that night. The hall was decorated to the latest extravagance; Menelaus wanted to impress the Trojans with his country, including the wealth and riches he achieved from his victories and the legendary support of his brother, Agamemnon. His greatest pride was his wife, Helen, the beauty of Sparta. Her long golden locks feel softly onto her shoulders and her eyes were the color of the softest sky; she was an enchantress, a seducer, a woman who if touched by any other than her brute husband, would be killed along with her lover in the most gruesome way possible. It was no surprise Paris was enthralled, every man was, but unlike Paris, they knew of Menelaus's rage and unforgiving nature, they were used to not fulfilling their innermost desires while the prince was not. He was raised a spoiled baby, and his love for woman, for beauty, was legendary to even his own people. He no longer was satisfied by the exotic dancers whose dark eyes and coy smiles tampered with every willing man, including the king, luring them to their chambers and the infidelity all men were known for. Paris wanted more; strangely he wanted love and not the lust he sought after. He found it in Helen, in the sad eyes of the most beautiful woman in the world, in the defeated way she sat, her head held high and her eyes downcast while she was embarrassed by her husband and his want for anyone else but her. She was a trophy, a mere possession in the games king play of 'my horse is bigger than yours', and Paris saw that pain, the loneliness that had plagued her existence since her betrothal to the king in her sixteenth year, he somehow understood and became her rock, her greatest support. They filled the emptiness inside each other's body, mind, and heart, and that, my sons, is how the greatest love affair the world has ever known started, by a simple glance into each others eyes."
