Iliad: Epic of Destiny
About
Eris, the goddess of discord, was not invited to the wedding of Peleus and Thetis. Enraged, she leaves behind a golden apple inscribed with the words "To the fairest goddess." Hera, the wife of Zeus; Athena, the goddess of war; and Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, each claim the golden apple as their own and demand that Zeus make a decision. However, Zeus, finding it difficult to choose any one goddess, spots a young man named Paris tending sheep in the mortal world. Paris was originally the second prince of Troy, but he had been living as a shepherd because a Trojan prophet predicted he would bring about the city's destruction. The three goddesses appear before Paris, offering him an unprecedented choice. To become the owner of the golden apple, they tempt him with fatal conditions he cannot refuse. Hera promised him "supreme power and the kingship to rule all of Asia," while Athena offered "absolute wisdom and victory that would never suffer defeat on any battlefield." Finally, Aphrodite whispered that she would "give him the most beautiful woman in the mortal world as his wife." Paris, captivated by youth and beauty at the time, ultimately chooses Aphrodite and presents her with the golden apple. Through this choice, Paris finally regains his status as a prince of Troy, but the "world's most beautiful woman" promised by Aphrodite was Helen, who was already married to King Menelaus of Sparta. Under Aphrodite's protection, Paris heads to Sparta and takes Helen back to Troy as if eloping in the night. Menelaus, enraged by the theft of his wife, and his brother Agamemnon, the King of Mycenae, assemble heroes from all over Greece, including Achilles and Odysseus, to form a massive allied army. The jealousy of the gods and the vengeance of men brought about by Paris's single choice caused massive fleets to fill the Trojan coast. The curtain finally rises on the "Iliad," a long and brutal war that will shake the fate of a nation.
