something intriguing in reading the destinies of helen and paris individually as the doom for their peoples. helen as daughter of nemesis designed to destroy the greeks in Zeus' plans, like a second pandora, and paris as born to make Troy fall. did they recognize each other's fates, and their burdens? is that what drew helen to paris? and could they help acting on that recognition which would initiate said destructions?

bros out here are seriously saying that im “SCUM” and “DESERVING OF A CRUEL FATE” for ambushing and killing troilus the young son of priam w/o even considering that the act represented that all trojan efforts to defend their city would be in vain. Cool

I'm sorry but your boyfriend went to Troy and is gonna be the first to die there. Yeah no there’s this prophecy that the first to put his foot on the Trojan shore is gonna die and he was overeager. Yeah gods are using him as a tool to bring about the fall of his city. he's probably not coming home again unless it’s as a ghost or whatever. yeah i’m sorry
