Ok hear me out…. So some people think that it’s Eurylochus’s fault that everyone died because he killed the cow buuuut he did it because ODYSSEUS went through scyllas lair and sacrificed six people. HOWEVER! Odysseus only did that because Poseidon is chasing them. So it’s all Poseidon’s fault right? WRONG! Poseidon only did that because Odysseus stabbed Polyphemus in the eye! But Odysseus only did that because Polyphemus was attacking them. And Polyphemus was attacking them because ODYSSEUS killed his sheep (or Eurylochus?) but he only did that because the LOTUS EATERS told them where to go but only because POLITES asked them. However if we dive deeper, they landed on the lotus eaters island because they needed food, why didn’t they have food? Because of the war. Aaaaaand the war started because PARIS had Helen. BUUUT it was because of Aphrodite that Paris had Helen. So that’s it, Aphrodite is to blame… right? NOPE WRONG AGAIN. Aphrodite only did it because Eris was going bonkers that Achilles parents didn’t invite her to their wedding (Aka Thetis and Peleus) So REALLY it’s Thetis and Peleus‘s fault for killing 600 men….. yeah I think that’s it.
Ahem: you’re welcome
