The back and forth battles continue as we the Gods are
continuing no interference still. Hektor and the Trojans pushed the Greeks back
to their wall, turning the tide once again. Hera and Athena were conspiring to
help out their favored Greeks so I sent Iris, the messenger, to remind them of
the ramifications of interfering. Here they realize they can't compete with me
and return to Mt. Olympus. I do happen to let them know that the next morning
will be their last chance to save their beloved Greeks, while noting that
Achilles is the only man who can prevent the Greeks total destruction. Hera and
Athena's plan to have Achilles return to the battlefield was actually pretty
intelligent, however it failed. That Achilles is a tough one to solve.
Agamemnon finally admits it was an error by himself taking Briseis from Achilles
and losing his best fighter, so he sent Odysseus, Phoenix, and Ajax to give
speeches to persuade his return. They each take their chance but to no prevail.
Achilles does say he will not leave home and will fight if the Trojans reach
the ships.
