TROY-
Title: The Echo of Fire: Voices of the Trojan War
Plot: What happens when your biggest rival is coming to destroy your country? You fight, of course!
Prologue
There are the legends to enchant us for all of our lives. And then, there are the legends that are our lives; something that could almost be reality. That is the story of Troy.
If any man thinks of Troy today, 3200 years after the biggest battle ever known, there are the words Glory, War, Love, and Hero engraved in his mind. But they have failed to think of one other word to explain the war, one other words that can describe every Greek, every Trojan. And that is Ambition.
Achilles, Menelaus, Briseis, Illium, Triopas, Inphigenia, Odysseus, Nestor.
Just to name a few. The names of the heroes and figures of the Trojan War are written in Ambition. Without Ambition, there would be no war. Achilles' power would be gone. We would not even remember his name if it weren't for his brazen fame.
This war lasted 10 years, with not much excitement until the ninth year. There were a lot of events that occurred in between; they are mismatched, but in the end, it all comes together as an echo in the fire of Love- an aspect that triumphed over all in this war. Listen carefully, and you will hear the word Ambition and the voice of Troy in the burning ember.
