A brief summary of how each character is doing at the end of the trojan war
Menelaus - alive!!! (somehow)
Helen - alive! was gonna get killed but she's too hot for that
Achilles - dead
Patroclus - dead
Paris - dead, shot in the dick (ha)
Hector - dead, body absolutely desecrated (you were a dick for that Achilles)
Agamemnon - alive then dead (you were a queen for that Clytemnestra)
Odysseus - blublublublub (jk he gets Penelope and Telemachus back but not before slaughtering most of the nobles of Ithica, there's kind of a whole book on it)
Ajax - dead
Penthesilea - dead
Diomedes - cucked (aphrodite's punishment for fucking up her wrist)
Aeneas - bringing the squad to Italy (there's kind of a whole book on it)
