Odysseus's level of cognitive dissonace and hubris must be off the charts because. He KILLED the guy who tricked him into joining the trojan war. An event that he followed by...... tricking achilles, a guy who's literally famous for holding grudges, into joining the trojan war. I would not be napping so soundly in my tent if I were you Odysseus, you really don't see it??? He was really out there prancing about knowing that he did the same thing to achilles that he just killed palamedes over?

#odysseus #the iliad #the odyssey #achilles #aristos achaion #odysseus of ithaca #homer #palamedes #i mean ok granted palamedes did put his baby's life on the line so #kimda fair #but by most accounts odysseus drags achilles away from his son as well #not quite the equivalent #but still I'd be on the lookout for some retribution esp since u put your receuiter to the deth
