"[...]Hercules thanked him, and when he had taken the city and shot down Laomedon and his sons, except Podarces, he assigned Laomedon's daughter Hesione as a prize to Telamon [...]" (The Bibliotheke)

"The two sages, Ucalegon and Antenor, elders of the people, were seated by the Scaean gates, with Priam, Panthoos, Thymoetes, Lampos, Klytios, and Hiketaon of the race of Ares." (The Iliad, Book 3)

"[...] Laomedon begat Tithonos, Priam, Lampos, Klytios, and Hiketaon of the stock of Ares." (The Iliad, Book 20)

Priam: I lost my brothers many decades ago. :(

Lampos, Klytios, Hiketaon: STOP TELLING PEOPLE WE'RE DEAD!!!

Priam: Sometimes I can still hear their voices... :'(
