Finding out that Ajax was killed because he non-con'd a priestess of Athena and either she or Poseidon murdered his ass was not something I expected to discover during the rabbit hole this caused.
Hi, I’ve been listening to Epic almost non stop since I found it, it’s gotten me through some not so great stuff, so thank you, can’t wait for the next saga
I've been waiting for something like this ever since i first heard that line -and worse, immediately followed by telling an ACTUAL teenager to go kill the remaining princes. 😂 What was happening here
For the longest time i heard:" Little late jack, stay back"😂😂 I thought he meant, since you are late,you cant fight😂, i also found it silly that his name was jack😂😂
so many people dont know that there are two ajaxs… greater ajax and lesser ajax. the former being very muscular while the latter being like average muscle for warriors at the time. also lesser ajax was an ass
Exactly. I did a play where it was mentioned that Ajax SA-ed Cassandra, and the myth I was told didn't tell me there was an Ajax the lesser so I was like "Tf he (Greater Ajax) doing here he's supposed to be dead"
Greater Ajax was so butthurt that Odysseus won Achilles's clothes and he didn't that he literally k!!!ed himself and was then *bitter towards Odysseus in the underworld.*
Yeaaa, but Ajax the lesser is also the one who got cursed by Athena for r--ing Cassandra while she clung to Athena’s statue for help so… maybe he should’ve stayed back.
Yeah, watching backs and protecting sharpshooters IS an extreamly important If less glorious Task, they also Had people stay Back to protect the ships at pretty much all Times!!!
Protection, maybe He IS supposed to watch the sharpshooters Back, or keep an eyes out for where they will need reinforcments! They also Had people stay Back to protect the ships!
Soooo, He joined the war at age 4? Achilles was one of the youngest with him Entering the Fight at an age, where He could BE belivably dressed Up AS a girl, but noe one would BE "young" at the end of the war anymore
Everyone always portrays Little Ajax as a cute lil child and I'm like realistically he gotta be at least a young man if he's been at war for a decade but like...Ajax the Lesser legit goes and brutally rapes Cassandra he was a horrible person D: it's so much better to imagine him as a cute lil dude that they all just gonna protect though
Lol I think "stay back" is a reference to his role in the Illiad. Where he and his brother where mostly responsible for things like counter attacking, guarding the ships, and defending retreats. They didn't lead any of the big Greek attacks. But they where still super important to the Greek war effort. I would argue his older brother spent like 60% of the Illiad carrying the Greek Army.
Lesser Ajax: “ why can’t I fight?” Everyone else: “ because your baby now shh” Ajax: “ I am an adult, not a baby. I’ve killed a man before!” Everyone: “shh, it’s ok baby, do you want a blankie” Ajax: “* grumbling/mumbling* yes pls”
I finally watched Troy after becoming obsessed with this musical. And i was waiting for a kid 😅 i saw him and was like "This is like a 7 foot tall man 🤣 But every time I saw him i was like "There's my little baby boy Ajax 🥺"
Thats Not an excuse and Just because His Task was Not in the Front Lines does Not mean He was snubbed, unless He was a selfimportent ahole that missed the segnificance of His given task
Adoro il fatto che il tipo che recita stia cercando in tutti i modi di non ridere ahahahaha Si vede che stringe le labbra mentre cerca di fare l'offeso 😂
To be fair, at least if Lesser Ajax minds his own business he won't piss of Athena by raping Cassandra in one of her temples and getting himself smote with extreme prejudice. This way is probably better for literally everyone involved.
I dont think most of the people named count toward the men he has on his fleet. A lot of the named people are from other places and go home themselves. I could be wrong, but I do know a handful of these guys seriously piss off gods and get their own bloody end. Poseidon AND Athena have it out for Lesser Ajax.
Wait, I thought Ajax the Greater was the brother of Teucer?? The one who goes mad and kills himself while Ajax the lesser is the one who rapes Cassandra in Athena’s temple and dies at sea??
So, sources differ, but the most prevalent version of his story these days is that he did not, in fact, stay back during the siege of Troy. Instead, he violently dragged the Trojan princess Cassandra from Athena's temple (where she was begging Athena for protection), and in some versions he also forced himself on her. Athena was rightfully infuriated by this, and when the Greeks didn't kill him as punishment, she caused a storm that sank many of their ships, including his. In some versions Athena kills him, in others he survives her attack only to immediately piss of Poseidon and get killed by him instead. All in all, it would have probably been better for everyone if Ajax just did what he was f*ing told told.
First of all staying Back IS Not a disrespectful Thing to BE ordered to do, He probably Had a protective Task, Like watching their archers Back or protecting their escape Route, or Something Like watching Out for where one of the Others Hits more Résistance then anticipated and then Server AS their Back Up! Only an Idiot IS insulted by an importent role, Just because IT IS Not the Most glorious looking. If He was supposed to do nothing at all, He would Not have been allowed to Take Up space in the horse!!!
The others weren't from Ithaca. They were from other parts of Greece. So they didn't travel with Odysseus. So their stories aren't covered in the musical.
In epic little Ajax is a I tablet kid. Mythology he was known as Ajax The Lesser. At least we can the two Ajax apart. Ajax The Greater was Achilles’s cousin.
It's important to have a reserve. Someone to watch your back from unexpected attacks from behind. Defend against counter attacks and guard retreats. That's what the Ajax brothers mostly did in the Illiad. It is probably in reference to that. Super important role.
Lesser Ajax: "He wasn't even 1/4, he was 1/8. 1/8 Demigod, that's BARELY anything."
Odysseus: "Then what am I? A roach?"
Fun Fact: Odysseus is also 1/8 god. His great grandfather is Hermes.
