Helen is married to King Menelaus of Sparta, but falls in love with Paris and secretly moves to Troy with him giving Menelauss brother Agememnon the opportunity to invade Troy using the force of the armies of the rest of Greece.

Knowing that he is travelling to a glorious death in Troy Achilles leads the Greek army in laying siege to Troy.

During a surprise attack by the army of Troy, Achilles cousin Patroclus is murdered in battle by Hector leaving Achilles vowing revenge.

In a duel the next day Achilles kills Hector and declares twelve days of mourning for the dead of the battle.

During the days of mourning Achilles and the Greek army construct a hollow wooden horse in which they hide and enter the city of Troy.

The remainder of the Greek Army hides from the people of Troy and waits for a dark night when they open the gates to the city and let the rest of the Greek army into the city.

At the end of Troy the character of Achilles is killed by a volley of arrows fired by Troys archers; before dying he removes all the arrows but the single one in his heel, which gives rise to the myth of Achilles being killed by the single arrow in his heel.
