"Stop quarrelling with us and do not be angry or menacing. If you persist, we shall not be much disturbed. You know that Alexander means more to us than anything."

Hephestion response on behalf of himself and other generals after olympias called them lycas or wolves in her letter. After some reluctance Alexander had let him read the letter of olympias...

Also shows Hephestion enjoyed immense power and he wasn't afraid of even olympias

I can't even imagine Sony Olympias saying this to Hephaestion. She is too friendly with him! 😆
