Quote context

- You've named him well... Alexander. Alexander of Macedonia. Alexander of Greece.

- Little lion.

- Little god.

- I say, uh... I've heard that legend.

- There were signs of greatness at his birth. Quakes and storms shook the earth, and in the skies a star fell.

- And two eagles perched upon the roof of the queen's chamber.

- And in far off Asia, the Temple of Ephesus was struck by lightning and burnt to the ground.

- And how did you read these signs, soothsayer?

- The two eagles that he was born to rule two worlds.

- The burning of the temple that a torch was kindled that day that would one day consume all the world, and this torch, your son.

- And the falling of the star?

- That a god was born to me of a god.

Nothing is changed but the name of the king!
