My Barsine is backkkk...slap to Roxana - Page 4

They do look stunning together. I hope we get to see more of their scenes together. We got two close ups of Alexander holding out the necklace to put on a lady's neck - one with Barsine and one with Roxanne. The CVs chose a great way to contrast Alexander's equation with both ladies and the "chemistry" that everyone wants to see.

Roxanne can now see the parallels of how he's treated her so gently all the time before and after marrying her but she kept mistreating him in return. Even after Roxanne's interruption and assertion that she has the right to everything first though, Barsine graciously acknowledges that. Olympias' words had the right effect, but it isn't hard to see why Alexander wouldn't be happy to marry Barsine and give her the status of his queen when she's so beautiful, gentle, and has the class of a royal lady. Since Darius is dead, he has no reason to be angry or hostile towards Barsine anyway, unless she performs her last-minute miracles in the war.

I also don't think he was lying when he called Barsine the most beautiful woman he's ever seen (aside from his own mother), do you?😆

And the way he touched her hair with affection, I was notexpecting that.

Besides, jiska Bharat se koi naata hai, woh shakhs Alexander ko bohot bhaata hai.😉

I think her grace and demeanor truly won me over when Alexander and Roxanne were interacting in the front about her dance blahblahblah and in the background you can see Hephaestion, Cleitus and Olympia all three heeding toward her with a glass of wine to wish for her birthday and she preregardly solemnly bent her head to pay her respects to Olympia. That scene needed to be more highlighted.

I think that's what Alexander's plan was ... to bring her back down to earth and show her that she can't push him beyond a point, but he chose a smart way to do this. 😆

It reminded me of what Aunty said in one of her previous posts ... something along the lines of Alexander probably marrying Barsine later on as she was gentle and he needed a respite from the fiery Roxanne.

After seeing this Roxanne, I can totally believe she'd have Barsine killed after Alexander's death.

About barsine's royalty I think both Roxane and barsine are same on this as Darius was also a mere servant of the real king of faras or a trader/businessman he poisoned the real royalty of faras so we can't say that barsine is royalty and Roxane is not

I also hope in the show, Alexander will later on marry Barsine and hopefully we get a glimpse of their journey together as Alexander would have put Barsine on a pedestal by making her his mallika as well. Though it would be understandable if she still remains distant and restrained toward Alexander, I truly hope after their wedding, Barsine gets a little less formal and craintive around him and leisurely becomes capable of claiming rightfully the position Alexander granted for her.
