| Guilt and Forgiveness |
| In this story, the first of the Methos Saga, we first encounter his ex-student and lover Helen of Athens, who betrayed him, and may end up paying the ultimate price for her actions. |
| Helen of Athens made her way down the streets of Paris after an evening of shopping. She had really enjoyed herself, for it was when Helen took to the town that she remember who she really was, a noblewoman by birth who prized beauty and grace above all things. She had purchased a breathtaking dress which she had spent over a thousand dollars on, but the outfit was nothing compared to some of the other things that she, as a fashion designer owned. She also bought a pair of high heels that were made of genuine leather. The price tage on them was also quite extraordinary. She had paid over $250 dollars for them. She was going to a fashion show tommorow, and she planned on wearing the new outfit their, and she was bound and determined to find the man who had designed this dress and offer him a much better paying job then the one he already had. She had to have him as a fashion designer for Physique. She just had to. It was late and she was tired, and so Helen took a short cut down an alley which she thought would help get her home more quickly. But what she had not counted on was company of the immortal kind. She turned around to the source of this Quickening that she felt, she could not see his face, only his dark sihlouette in the distance. "Who's there!" She called out with a little apprehension, praying that it was a friend, because she was unarmed, having left her sword at home, hoping for a peaceful night on the town. She got no response.
