I disagree with this take on Helen of Troy but I do think it could be remedied if it was revealed that Helen went willingly with Paris for the same reason that Achilles went to war: to avoid wasting away their divinity. I will keep my mind open to see what is done with Helen.

I can’t wait for Agamemnon to get killed by Clytemestra. And fuck Diomedes I need to reread the Iliad to remember if his death was painful.

“I watch his eyes as he does- they are cold and almost sad. Later, I will remember this.”

I desperately need a novel from Clytemnestra’s POV…no reason.

Thetis so knows Patroclus is going to die before Achilles.
