Homer (2493 words)
At present, the Achaian troops are dying from a mysterious plague.
During the fighting that continues, the Achaians begin to falter, and at one point, Athena, Zeus' daughter, fears that the entire Achaian army might be slaughtered.
During this break in the fighting, the dead of both armies are buried and given appropriate funeral rites, and the Achaians fortify their defenses with a strong wall and a moat-like ditch.
