    Summary

    The arrow rips through his back like fire, sliding through muscle like butter, his bones fragmenting and yielding- yielding so that the arrow might rip through vulnerable organs and soft lung.

    Achilles does not curse his bones, nor his limbs for failing to deliver him from danger; he merely turns his head to the side so that he might gaze up at the sky, calmly blue above a world of red. He doesn’t want his last sight to be one of death and destruction.

    All is well in the afterlife. (It's a feel good, well overdue afterlife reunion)

    Summary

    Patroclus is summoned by Odysseus to meet. It is only there, speaking with this sculptor of words, that Patroclus realises he has Achilles on an invisible leash - he is his tether to humanity to keep him from bounding away with hubris.

    Im obsessed with Odysseus's characterisation in TSOA, and there isn't enough content around for me about it.

    Summary

    Briseis sees Achilles like a dragon, hoarding Patroclus like so much inanimate treasure.
