Summary
“What did you say?” He speaks through gritted teeth, punctuating every word. Peleus watches the exchange between his wife and son nervously, knowing better than to get involved when two immortal beings are at arms.
“In order for you to be revered for years to come, we must offer a sacrifice,” Thetis says simply, as if inquiring about the weather. “Patroclus has been chosen.”
A virgin sacrifice is required to ensure that Achilles's expedition to Troy reigns successful.

Summary
Odysseus heard their rumors; their gossip. It was impossible not to. Even so, he’d never before believed their words. Until perhaps this one.
As of recently, the rumor of the hour pertained to the hero of the hour—Achilles.
He had garnered his fair share of attention before now. Have you heard? They would say. He is invulnerable. Listeners would laugh, but believe it nonetheless. And why shouldn’t they? He had never been injured in the year he had resided with the rest of the unlucky. The rumors surrounding him now do not relate to his skill—hardly to him at all—but instead to his unusual closeness with his companion.
or;
5 times Odysseus’ suspicions towards the nature of Achilles and Patroclus’ relationship grew, and the 1 time they were confirmed.

Summary
Pat is an overlooked nurse at Atalanti General Hospital. His days are filled with appointments, assisting doctors and caring for the unwell.
Until someone attempts to assassinate President Atremenos.
What follows is not definable, as Pat's anonymity comes to an end and he is thrust upon a pedestal like he is a king amongst nobles by some of the highest echelons in Greek politics. Pat struggles with becoming the apparent centre of the world, but more importantly...
Why do these people keep asking for his name when he has given it three times already?
