The only good thing that came out of Nolan's Odyssey is that I've seen more content about Menelaus and Helen thanks to his awful portrayal of them.

“i love how we as a fandom have just agreed that–” don’t include me in this. do NOT lump me in with that.

I know a lot of people think they would be, but I just can't see Electra and Iphigenia being close once Iphigenia returned back to Greece with Orestes.

For Electra, Iphigenia is at fault for their father's death, the way Agamemnon is at fault for Iphigenia's death for Clytemnestra, the way Helen is at fault for Hector's death for Andromache, the way Patroclus is at fault for Achilles' death for Thetis

#the cycle of blame #you love that person. youre close to that person. you know they had no choice. you know its fate. and you cant help but blame and hate the #m anyway #you dont feel it as much in the homeric epics but its very prevelent in the tragedies

#this but its achilles repeating it under his breath as a mantra as he musters up the courage to go verbally fight agamemnon without a) killi #ng him or b) bursting into tears or c) both

Every day I still think about that time my classics prof read the passage from the iliad where achilles begs zeus to make the achaeans fail, after which he said “with friends like achilles, who needs enemies?”

[The look on Menelaus’ face would tell Agamemnon, if he were listening, that it is already too late to protect him.]

Achilles wishing he and Patroclus could conquer Troy together sounds like a love story

But Diomedes told Agamemnon that he and Sthenelus would stay even when everyone leaves sounds like a hostage situation.

#lmao that speech always takes me out #hes like #EVEN IF EVERYBODY LEAVES #ALL OF YOU COWARDS #EVEN YOU AGAMEMNON #me and STHENELUS #and sthenelus in the background is like :00000 #bruh #me???#its hilarious ppl really underestimate how hilarious this book is #i love you canon diomedes

⚡COMING TO KICKSTARTER IN 2027⚡ 📜Lockettopia: The Trojan War Cycle📜

"CYPRIA 11: ACHILLES RAIDS THE TROAD"

For nine brutal years Achilles and his Myrmidons ravage the surrounding towns of the Troad, beginning with the sacrilegious killing of the Trojan prince Troilus at the sanctuary of Apollo, sealing the god's undying hatred. Achilles raids Mount Ida, captures the prince Lycaon by night and sells him into slavery, sacks city after city including Hypoplacian Thebes where he kills Andromache's father and seven brothers, takes the priest's daughter Chryseis as a gift for Agamemnon, and burns Lyrnessus, killing the family of the noblewoman Briseis before claiming her as his own concubine.

To view the art piece larger- Journey now over to Lockettopia.com

The Trojan War Cycle brings together The Iliad, The Odyssey, and surviving poem fragments of the Epic Cycle: The Cypria, Aethiopis, Little Iliad, Iliou Persis, Nostoi, and Telegony, to reconstruct the full myth in sweeping, chronological order. Kickstarter Link in bio/linktree
