A Spartan Future

[Celtic_Punk]

Prelude:
"My name is Eukleides Nikias Apollon. I born of Eugenios Nikiandros and Andromeda. My father fought to unite the hellas, and I fought to defend it against its most powerful foe yet. I write this history from accounts of the elders of Sparte, and my father's own accounts before his passing. In 275 BC, 3 great hellenic cities united to face the threat of Makedon. Her imperial ambitions still hounded against us even after the death of Alexandros! Athenai, Rhodes. These were the only free states willing to risk joining Sparte on her defiance of the evil tyranny of Makedonian rule. One king! Who will keep that single king from corrupting?! Our King Kleonomos went to Athenai by ship to ask for assistance in fighting back the Hounds of Hades as they were then known. Reluctantly the Attike's accepted, and prepared their citizen warriors to face the coming war. Rhodes had already begged Sparte to aid them if Makedon decided to attempt a second invasion of their island. Perhaps the warning of the Collosus was not enough? That statue was built with the money gained from Makedon's abandoned seige equipment after all. Sparte agreed to send aid if such an invasion occurred, but not unless Rhodes sent economic support. Our great state could not stand alone, dispite our military prowess.. We had but 700 Homoi left. Our old barracks were falling apart with the economic crisis, we could not afford to continue to train young men in the old ways like before. In 272 BC The new King Areus Agiados went to Crete to find mercenaries willing to help our plight. Most of our army accompanied our king incase the King of Crete decided to attack our forces despite our prior notice of our true intentions on the island. Such actions were prudent in the perilous times..."

I welcome any constructive criticism.
HOPE YOU ENJOY!
