Vanilla Price's Final Exam Essay

In the Odyssey, Odyseus decides to leave his homeland to help fight the battle at Troy. In the movie Troy Achillies as well descides to leave his country to fight at the war at Troy.
The threshold for the to men is very simple. Odyseus decides to go because the king requested and/or demanded his presence. Achillies goes for a whole different reason. He goes to have his name remembered for ever, because heroes are remembered but legends are never forgotten.
Both men say their farewells to whom ever the care about. Odyseus says his farewells to his recently new born son, he gets his men and sets sail looking and waving away. Achillies sets to say his goodbye to his mother. However though while saying farewell she tells him it will be his last farewell, because if he should go he will never set foot on his home again. They both leave with haste to get to the fight.
Both leave and set out for the horizon not knowing what was in there future. Odyseus not knowing if he would ever see his new born son again, or his beautiful wife. Achillies knowing his fate however he does not no when or how his death should come upon him.
In the movie the two men are close friends. Them being friends i think they are eachothers mentor. Achillies to Odyseus in the art of war and his skill to weild a blade. Odyseus to Achillies in the knowledge of life and death, and his incredible smarts on the battlefield.
Achillies changes in a way i didnt see coming. He changed in the favor of love. He went after the woman he loved so they could be together. He gave his life for love and thats passionate. Odyseus changed when his cockiness got the best of him and stopped him from coming home.
After Odyseus's journey he learned never to give up. To keep using his brain. Never let your cockiness get the best of you. Achillies died at the end, but if he should have stayed alive im sure him seeing his own death he would have still done it. Not only for love but for the fact of his name living on and never forgotten.
