  Summary

  Raoul de Bragelonne liked secrecy too much to let himself speak plainly, even in the safety of his own mind; he was used to cultivating a certain image of himself to others, and of his life to himself. But if he allowed himself one day to think the truth, it would be: they were not always miserable, and in truth, they were miserable much less often than not.

  Summary

  ‘Hmm,’ said he, turning back to Aramis, who made nothing of it and continued:
  ‘Who is this that looks forth like the dawn, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army with banners?’

  ‘Terrible as an army with banners...’ repeated Porthos under his breath, as Athos stirred involuntarily upon listening to the strange phrase. ‘I’ll say!’ and he rose to his feet. ‘Come, Aramis.’

  Summary

  Aramis stood up and went to the window. It was doubtful he could see anything in the pitch black of the night, but the gesture itself told Athos all that he needed to know.
  'What are they doing to you in Noisy-le-Sec?' asked he irritably. 'Is your abbey made of gold? It's not particularly close to Tours, that much I know.'
  'And perhaps it suits me that way.'

   

   

  A glimpse of some of the twenty years between The Three Musketeers and Twenty Years After. Also serving as a back story as for why Aramis and Athos ended up being frondists together.

  Summary

  'I’ve been given much in life, and I would have to repay the debt tenfold. To become a hermit, to go on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, well, you tell me! How much is a thief’s life worth, how much a woman’s? What is the price for taking it? And even if I were able to survive the penance,’ added he quietly and in a more sober voice, ‘would I ever atone?’
  And he looked expectantly at Aramis, who listened to him with a face frowned with focus, biting his lip in pondering.

   

  After killing Milady, the three Musketeers go back to Paris, but Athos seems to be affected beyond measure by what has happened.

  Summary

  Once ago I might have known the answer to this question, but the man I used to call my friend – my closest, most intimate friend – was not one to meddle with kingly affairs; and the man you are now I would not recognize if my life depended on it.
  My mistake lies, and has always lied, in indulging you.

   

   

  A definite end to the Tribe of Benjamin series: five years after the events on Belle-Île, Aramis and Athos begin an epistolary communication, which in turn may help them resolve their complicated feelings about Porthos' death.
