Well, today concluded the Patroclus Honor Games.

There were a few events in the morning, including wooden-sword-dueling which ended in a battle between Diomedes another guy named Ajax, King of the Locrians. Diomedes won.

After this morning’s events were done, everyone gathered in the center of camp where Agamemnon and Achilles made speeches.

Agamemnon publicly kissed Achilles ass and thanked him once again for coming back. Achilles just rambled on for some time about Patroclus. -What he said didn’t really make any sense.

I guess public speaking is the one thing that Achilles doesn’t excel at.

Anyway, a big feast followed these speeches. -The celebration continued for the rest of the day.

Later, Odysseus brought Hermes by and asked if I could get some kind of special collar or something made for him. I jokingly suggested a winged helmet. He thought that it was a great idea.

I put in an order for one with Macar. -He just rolled his eyes and nodded.

We had a great time at the fire tonight. Polites, Misenus, Elpenor, Epieus, Macar, Diomedes and Odysseus were there. Achilles even stopped by for a while to thank Diomedes for organizing the games.

You should have seen the look on Epieus’ face when Achilles sat down. -I think he almost fainted when Achilles congratulated him for winning the boxing tournament.

Elpenor didn’t seem as impressed with Achilles. -He loudly excused himself while Achilles was still talking.

When it was pretty late, one of Diomedes Argosian pals, Sthenelus, stopped by and told Diomedes and Odysseus he found some ladies that wanted to meet them.

Odysseus left Hermes with me.

There's a goat standing in the corner of my tent right now. -He's chewing on a belt.
