In one incident, Achilles, the famous warrior of Greece, takes his troops out of the war, and the whole war effort suffers. And in the course of the ensuing muddle, his beloved friend, Patroclus, is killed -- and killed in single combat by one of the Trojan princes, Hector. And Achilles goes mad with grief and rage and revenge, and he mutilates the body. He kills Hector, he mutilates his body and then he refuses to give the body back for burial to the family, which means that, in Greek ethos, Hector's soul will wander eternally, lost.
Num momento, Aquiles,  o famoso guerreiro grego, retira suas tropas da batalha, e todo o esforço de guerra fracassa. Na confusão que se segue, seu grande amigo Pátroclo  é morto em combate singular por Heitor, príncipe de Troia. Aquiles fica louco com raiva, ódio e desejo de vingança, e mutila o corpo; mata Heitor  e mutila o corpo e se recusa a entregar o corpo  para a família enterrar, o que significa, no éthos Grego, que a alma de Heitor vagará eternamente perdida.
