0030: Troy

Agamemnon: [approaches king] Good day for the crows. 
Triopas: Remove your army from my land. 
Agamemnon: Why, I like your land, I think we'll stay. I like your soldiers too. 
Triopas: They won't fight for you. 
Agamemnon: That's what the Messenians said, and the Acardians, and the Opeians, now they all fight for me. 
Triopas: You can't have the whole world, Agamemnon. It's too big, even for you. 
Agamemnon: I don't want to watch another massacre. Let's settle this war in the old manner. Your best fighter against my best. 
Triopas: And if my man wins? 
Agamemnon: We'll leave Thessaly for good. 
Triopas: Boagrius! 
[cheers from Thessalian army. Boagrius comes out from the centre of the army] 
Agamemnon: Achilles! 
[silence] 
Triopas: Boagrius has this effect on many heroes. 
Agamemnon: Be careful who you insult, old king.
