You hoard the spoils of war yet do nothing to win them yourself. I swore an oath to fight for Greece, but not to serve you like a slave! Take her, then—Briseis, the prize you steal from me—but know this: without me, your men will fall. And when Hector slaughters them, you will beg for my help, and I will not come!"With those words, Achilles hurled his bronze-studded scepter to the ground, and silence fell over the assembly. The gods watched from Olympus, knowing that the course of history had shifted. And in the depths of his wrath, Achilles’ fate was sealed.Title DetailsOriginal ScriptureLarge, easy-to-read print throughout7 x 10 InchesMatte CoverWhite Paper Read more
