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 of all." Hera, the wife of Zeus; Athena, the goddess of war; and Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, all claim the apple as their own and demand Zeus make a decision. However, Zeus, finding it difficult to choose between them, 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 foretold that he would bring about the destruction of the city. 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 'the greatest power on earth and kingship over 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, eventually takes Aphrodite's hand and offers her the golden apple. Through this choice, Paris finally regains his status as a prince of Troy, but the 'most beautiful woman in the world' promised by Aphrodite was Helen, a married woman already wed to King Menelaus of Sparta. Under Aphrodite's protection, Paris heads to Sparta and brings Helen back to Troy as if fleeing in the dead of night. Menelaus, enraged by the theft of his wife, and his brother Agamemnon, King of Mycenae, summon heroes from all over Greece, including Achilles and Odysseus, to form a massive allied army. Paris's single choice, fueled by the jealousy of gods and the vengeance of men, eventually causes massive ships 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.
