At the opening of the epic, the Greek camp faces a crisis due to the fact that Achilles has withdrawn from the fighting in response to a dispute with Agamemnon over a captured woman named Briseis. Achilles' absence weakens the Greek forces and angers Agamemnon, leading to discord among the leaders.
