The Greeks weren't able to sail for Troy but for the sacrifice of Agamemnon's eldest daughter, Iphigenia. Part two of Euripides's tragedy retelling Iphigenia's fate.CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.Sources: Iphigenia at Aulis, versions translated by Coleridge and Cecelia Eaton Lushnig; Earth Greek Myths by Timothy Gantz; Theoi.com.
