True Queen of Kek, characterized by her duality.
Would throw an envelope in the trash because the trash can was empty and she would feel bad for the trash can having nothing to do and serving no function.

I think Mont St. Michel is worth seeing and something you would like, especially if the weather is nice. I really want to see Albi Cathedral now.

Yeah, I thought Agamemnon's whole test was pretty stupid. He sounds exhausting.

I thought the list of the people and ships and what not to be pretty interesting. The way I interpreted its inclusion was that it elevated the story from a cool story to something that could be seen by its audience as an oral history. It also makes the whole war seem more epic, because you are being told that it's not just the commanders and main characters of the poem that are worth talking about.
I also like Wilson's choice to refer to Ares in the translation because it makes the battle sound epic and almost ceremonial or sacred, which fits well for a war that is ultimately between the gods themselves.

"He doesn't even make the Trojans out to be evil wife stealing foreigners or anything, they have some very human portrayals in their half of the story which is where a lot of the emotional core is."
I remember reading an excerpt the death of the-Mexican-guy-censored-for-spoilers in grade school and thinking about how it made me sad for the family of a fictional guy living thousands of years ago. I never really thought about how because he was not the hero in the story, portraying him and the other Trojans as sympathetic humans rather than writing them as just some pro-Greek propaganda made it extra meaningful.
