Troy
print this page
Paris, Prince of Troy, and Helen, Queen of Sparta, stars a war that will devastate ancient Greece.  Paris takes Helen away from her husband, King Menelaus, and ignites the passions and pride in Menelaus’ brother Agamemnon, King of the Myceneans.  Soon the tribes of ancient Greece unite to steal Helen back from Troy in the defense of Menelaus’ honor. 

 

Agamemnon’s greed corrupts his quest for honor, causing him to strive for control of Troy, further securing his supremacy over his vast empire.  Troy, a walled city lead by King Prium, and defended by Prince Hector, has never been breached by enemies.  Achilles, the key to victory or defeat over Troy is known as the greatest warrior alive. 

 

Achilles does not claim allegiance to anyone other than himself and his glory.  He is seemingly invincible and is rebellious until love ultimately decides his fate.  This war is a struggle for honor and power, but with love as the ultimate driving force and deciding factor.
