The story “The Iliad” is another great myth man become heroes by fighting one another or invading and defending the conquests. And it is necessary to discuss how personality of each of these fighters or soldiers influence their reputation around villages and castles. For example, King Agamemnon shows his arrogant and selfish personality throughout the story. We see this when he says to the priest who had recently advised him to give in the girl captured in the battle, “Never again, old man, let me catch sight of you by the hollow ships. Now go, don’t tempt my wrath and you may depart alive.” Undoubtedly, Agamemnos’ personality shows excessive hubris for himself by not willing to trade the girl for a beneficiary treat for him and his castle. And this will eventually led to a downturn of his reputation. On the other side, Achilles has also shown a type of arrogant attitude, especially when they come to ask for his aid to win the battle. he responds, “No, no, here I sit by the ships…a useless, dead weight on the good green earth.” This illustrates, that even though Achilles was a great warrior, inside him still existed the 
arrogance and selfishness that an honorable warrior should never have.
