What did Artemis demand of them to calm the winds and ensure a safe voyage to Troy?
I believe you are talking about Agamemnon, a warrior in the Trojan war. One day he shot a deer in a sacred field and boasted that he was a better hunter than Artemis, the goddess of the Hunt. She was furious and commanded the winds to continue to blow Agamemnon's ships back to the shore so he could not get to Troy. An oracle told him to appease Artemis and sail to Troy, he had to sacrifice his daughter, Iphigenia. He tricked his wife, Clytemnestra, into bringing Iphigenia over by saying she was to be married to Achilles. When she came over, her father put her on the altar. Some accounts say she was killed. However, other accounts say before she could be killed, Artemis replaced her with a deer. There are then two accounts of what happened to Iphigenia then. The most popular is that she became a priestess to Artemis. The other is she was transformed into the goddess Hecate. Either way, Agamemnon got to Troy.
