Hello.
Ok, so we skipped the middle section of book 16, but we did read the end in which Patroclus is killed by Hector, Apollo and another slightly unimportant warrior named Euphorbus. Before he dies, Patroclus predicts that Hector will be killed by Achilles (avenging his death) very soon. Hector disregards this and taunts Patroclus’ dead body.
I don’t really have a question for this section; I thought that it was vary clear. I do have a question about section 9, however. What was it that changed Achilles’ mind and made him stay? In the end of the book, if you remember, he was ready to leave the next day.
I think that Achilles is going to go out and avenge Patroclus and that his final prophesy will come to pass. I think that were loot and women couldn’t tempt Achilles out, Patroclus’ death will.
Goodbye.
