Hector
In ages long ago, when heroes roamed the earth
And gods and monsters roamed the land,
There was a mighty warrior known throughout the realm
As the greatest of them all, a man of might and courage,
His name was Hector, son of Priam, king of Troy
And leader of the Trojans in their war against the Greeks.
He was a brave and noble warrior, feared by his enemies
And loved by his friends and fellow countrymen.
But Hector's greatest foe was the mighty Achilles,
The son of a goddess, a warrior without equal.
He was swift and strong, with a heart as cold as steel,
And he had vowed to bring down Hector and his city.
The two clashed on the battlefield, swords ringing
As they fought with all their might.
But Hector, despite his bravery, could not best Achilles,
And he fell to the ground, defeated and mortally wounded.
But even in death, Hector was not forgotten,
For his bravery and selflessness inspired those around him
To fight on and defend their city with all their might.
And thus, the Trojans fought on, and eventually,
They were able to defeat the Greeks and win the war.
Hector's legacy lived on, remembered as a hero
For all time, and his name became synonymous
With bravery, honor, and the will to fight on.
