The thing about Palamedes is that based on his overall being genuinally a good person vibe I do think he only endangered Telemachus because he was pretty sure Odysseus was lying. After all he knew Odysseus well enough to draw this conclusion.

Wich does open the idea for my man being completly heartbroken and lowkey hated in a reality where he was actually wrong and Odysseus had fully went mad for reals. No one has a good time at all. Also whatever revenge plan Penelope would have in mind would be worse than Odysseus for sure (although I do think Palamedes would fully be "no I do deserve that one actually" after killing her son in front of her and ending Odysseus whole disnasty to prove a point he didn't even prove).

Bonus points if Ody went mad the only way he would via angering a god and the curse is lifted after he kills his son and Agamemnon fully not reading the room is like "cool that was fixed, let's go to war" while everyone else is in shock.

Cuando mi hijo nació le juré que yo siempre sería un buen padre, que lo cuidaría… que lo mantendría a salvo de todo mal… Que yo rompería esta maldición, y juré que, aunque la lluvia y la sangre cayeran del cielo, yo no permitiría que jamás lo alcanzara una sola gota, que viviría intacto, protegido y libre.

Y ahora tú me profetizas que no es el plan de los dioses que yo permanezca fiel a mi juramento y que mi propia muerte será la lluvia que marcará a mi hijo, mi sangre su condena.

The Iliad: A Raw and Powerful Depiction of the Heroism and Tragedy of War

Homer’s Iliad is a classic epic that depicts the glory and tragedy of war through the heroism of its characters. The poem revolves around the Trojan War between the Greeks and Trojans, and it portrays the devastating effects of war on both sides. On the one hand, the Iliad glorifies the heroism and bravery of the warriors involved in the conflict. The poem is known for its portrayal of heroic…

for some reason I've started the epic quest to try translating the Iliad as so many have done before me (I've translated 20 lines which is a lot with only a dictionary but very little in the long run)

but page 1 i saw a funny epitheton ornans in chriseis's speech. he says:

"sons of atreus and other greeks with good greaves..." (greave = shin armor)

like, how stupidly funny is that? bro is coming to free his daughter but nooo he must mention the shin armor of the greeks first. peak flattery. I will be using this

I'll be making more posts about the weird shit i find in translation but i thought that description was just so funny

Achilles: I have a reason

Agamemnon: which is?

Achilles: I.DONT.LIKE.YOU

Ups.

What they did? Well, Agamemnon is suing for emotional damages, at any rate!

Porto 2 Ch D SF: Daniel Cukierman/Piotr Matuszewski [2] def. Franco Agamenone/Santiago Rodriguez Taverna 7-6(5), 6-3 Match Stats

📸 ATP official website

It might have taken a while for D. Cukierman/P. Matuszewski to find their footing, where the third time was the charm for them to serve it out. However, they appeared firmer in the second set, withstanding pressure in a more balanced manner as they tried to close things out, which paid off toward the end of the match. This way, they generated more break points (12 to 10), converting 5 of them compared to the unseeded pair's 40% break point conversion rate.

Besides, D. Cukierman/P. Matuszewski also had a better experience on their serves. Even though both pairs scored an ace, the second seeds had an exceptional first serve winning percentage with 71%, 11% more than F. Agamenone/S. Rodriguez Taverna, which helped them navigate some problems. To add, the unseeded pair double-faulted 4 times, which faded their second serve winning percentage 7% below the second seeds throughout the match.

In the ongoing finals, D. Cukierman/P. Matuszewski takes on first seeds Romain Arneodo/Theo Arribage, who defeated Siddhant Banthia/Tennyson Whiting 6-2, 7-6(5) in another epic battle. While this shapes up to have a neat start, the more consistent one would prevail in this match. Could be a tough one on paper, but who knows what from here!
