So here's the question—!

Greeks are prone to impulsiveness and acting without thinking when faced with wine and women!

Even if one knows that doing certain things will offend the gods or even incur their wrath.

But the lawless Greek heroes still dared to do it.

In this heroic age where almost everyone is a demigod (their brains are in their lower bodies, they act without thinking, and they don't know how to weigh the pros and cons) —

Night: Pshaw, it was an era in which the bloodlines of kings from all countries, when traced back to their origins, were all related to a certain Alexandre Dumas god-king Zeus.

It's either Zeus, or it's related to another Alexandre Dumas, Poseidon.

These two brothers are the masters.

The remaining Greek male gods are secondary, along with a small number of goddesses.

Many gods and humans have mated and had offspring.

Therefore—

Many Greek heroes actually had lineage and background.

Here, the dividing line between gods and humans in mythology is more blurred and indistinct than in mythology from other regions.

Heroes are all fearless.

An arrogant personality that completely disregards the gods.

Therefore, many offended the gods and were cursed and punished.

In short—a bunch of hotheads!

Back to the topic——

If the Greeks breach the city,

He really gave Apollo's witch to Agamemnon...

Troy, which already had a relatively obscure relationship with the sun god Apollo at that time,

At that time, not only Greece, as the culprit,

Troy, having failed to protect its city and resulting in the defilement of the witch, will inevitably incur the wrath of the sun god once more.

Seize the opportunity to strike a vicious blow when the enemy is down.

Speaking of which,

This brings us to the awkward relationship between Troy and the gods.

Initially, Troy had the support of the great god Zeus.

The ancestors of the Trojans were descendants of the great god Zeus.

Even the founding of Troy was inspired by the gods; it was a city-state truly protected and shielded by Zeus.

Later, during the city's construction process,

Even the beautiful goddess Athena was appointed by Zeus to descend to earth to guide and protect these mortals, becoming the guardian goddess of Troy.

Previously, because of his rebellion against Zeus,

Apollo and Poseidon, who were banished from the heavens,

Zeus deliberately exiled him here, and they reached an agreement with the then-King of Troy.

They built the mighty Trojan Wall for the Trojans, but only received a paltry sum in return.

But when the city walls were completed,

The King of Troy reneged on his promise, failing to provide the due reward and instead driving Apollo and his companions away.

This completely offended these two gods...

They vowed that when they returned to the heavens, they would one day avenge the humiliation of today.

Now Apollo and Poseidon have returned to their thrones as the twelve Olympian gods.

Without threats,

The Trojans were always worried about the retribution of these two gods.

Although divine punishment and calamity have not yet descended upon us.

Many Trojans firmly believed that the great god Zeus would always stand behind them and protect them.

Apollo and Poseidon didn't dare to make a move!

But the revenge of Apollo and Poseidon was slow to arrive.

This led the Trojans, who were gradually lowering their guard, to believe that the two had forgotten the old story.

Or rather, they gave up hatred.

but--

The Greek gods were known for their narrow-mindedness.

The Trojans were unaware that

Because what they did before was really too outrageous.

As human beings…

Disrespect for or even insult to the gods

These actions offended not only Apollo and Poseidon,

This also displeased and disgusted Zeus, who had a very strong desire for control.

For overly arrogant humans,

Zeus did not like it...

Even behind the Trojan War,

If I remember correctly, Ye...

Rumor has it that this god-king was in charge.

Hera, the queen of the gods, and Athena, the goddess of wisdom who once protected the city, also participated.

They sided with Greece and wanted to destroy the dishonest Troy.

On the surface——

Troy was protected by many gods.

Zeus, the king of the gods; Athena, the goddess of wisdom; and Aphrodite, the goddess of beauty.

But in reality, the divine alliance behind Troy is completely untenable.

Even the incident of offering the golden apple to the most beautiful goddess,

This was the source that ignited the Trojan War (the calamity).

It is possible that this was a signal from Zeus.

If your elder brother personally tells you to die, how can you possibly live?

Although the gods had no direct excuse to destroy Troy,

But in secret, they facilitated the formation of this massive battle.

It can be said that all of Greece wanted Troy to be defeated and destroyed.

The water here is too deep.

This is why Ye previously thought it was unrealistic to turn the tide with Troy.

It's just pitiful that they were used as tools.

Helen, misled by divine guidance and believing she had fallen in love with Paris, traveled to Troy.

certainly--

At this point, Hector was unaware of so much.

All he could think about now was how not to offend Apollo, the sun god.

At least we can't let the gods get involved...

That would truly turn Troy into a living hell.

This war, which was started and caused by his brother,

As the elder brother—

Hector voluntarily took on the responsibility.

Not to mention--

Hector was one of the few Greek heroes who placed great emphasis on personal feelings.

From his love for his younger brother

Protecting his sister-in-law, showing bravery and fearlessness on the battlefield, even displaying ferocity towards the enemy while remaining extremely polite and civilized to his own people...

This great hero's moral character was quite good compared to other Greek heroes.

He values ​​family ties very much.

The wife's family, whom he had mentioned earlier, hit his weak spot.

Although Greeks are generally known for being promiscuous and irresponsible in matters of love,

He often pulls up his pants and then doesn't recognize people.

They never took Greek women seriously.

Even many goddesses have suffered this kind of tragic fate (encountering scumbags).

But the night remembers—

In the description of Hector.

There are recorded passages about Hector's deep love for his wife.
