In Homer's "Iliad" there is a scene that depicts a quiet idyll amidst universal insanity, blood, sweat and death. A short scene of farewell of Hector, the protagonist of the Trojans, with Andromache turned into a symbol of family virtue and loyalty to duty. Since then, weapons and clothing have changed, but people are remained the same.
