This is my current year tribute to Hephaistion's memory. It's AU where, like the title implies, the gods were generous and granted A, H and some others a long life. When Hephaistion dies, Alexander is still heartbroken and wishes to join his beloved. The story ends abruptly on purpose, without coming to it's logical end, just like Hephaistion's and Alexander's lives in reality.

The title says it all. Sometimes the characters of this story will be successful at this game, sometimes not very much. But in the beginning they have no idea what to expect so they all take their chances.

Ever wondered what Alexander's closest companions did while their king and his soul mate were spending some quality time together? Here is one of the possibilities.

Ever wondered how Alexander spent his time when his troops rebelled at Opis and he furiously shut himself off the world in his tent? Here is one of the 'possible' versions. Should I even bother with declaration of "never happened in reality"?

Death of Alexander...it's never an easy topic to write. This story is my contribution to this year commemoration of this sad event.
