This happens during the Trojan war. The kings came back from a raid. On the dais there was a girl, Despina, between the swords, armors and jewlery. Despina was scared and bruised. Patroclus: Tell them you want her. he whispers to Achilles. Achilles: Why? Patroclus: We can't let her suffer. Achilles looks at Despina. She is trying to hold her fear. Achilles stands. Achilles: I claim the girl King Agamemnon: What are you doing, boy? he says with a grimace on his face. Achilles: I claim the child, to be under my protection.
