o
The fighting over Patroclus’ arms and body
exhibits the how fierce the battle was. Given this, I feel I could incorporate a
similar tale in my story. I feel that I could potentially have brothers fight
and one dies in battle. Thus, the living brother would have to fight off the
opposing men so he can have a proper burial for his fallen brother.
o
I am curious as to what will happen now that
Achilles will be extremely angry that Patroclus has fallen.
o
Achille is upset that Zeus had answered his
request but had let Patroclus die. I find that the Gods typically help, however,
there is always another side. There is always a sacrifice or death that follows
a God’s answer to a request. This can be used in order to develop a character
in my story this week (i.e. vengeance, sorrow, and anger).
o
I find it interesting how involved the Gods are
with the slaying of Hector. I could take an opposite approach and have Zeus
actually save Hector and go against the other Gods.
o
Athene portrayed herself as a comrade of Hector
to trick him into fighting Achilles. This reminds me of a time in the Ramayana
where Ravana used a golden deer in order to kidnap Sita. I wrote about these
deceptions before and I may include this in part of my story.
o
Hector is defeated and is not given an honorable
burial. Maybe I can alter the ending of
this part of the story.
o
I could potentially write a story from the
perspective of Andromache.
o
Achilles displays sympathy for King Priam when
he sneaks into the Greek camp. Hectors is returned and a proper burial was
held. I could alter the story and have Achilles kidnap Priam and force an even
larger battle between the Trojans and Greeks.
