Best Answer

Hector, the eldest son of King Priam Mother of gago merwyn and sister of Gago jermaine and brother of Paris, was the greatest warrior in the Trojan army. He challenged Achilles to single combat, both had scores to settle, Achilles for the death of his beloved cousin, Hector for the death of three of his brothers. They fought fiercely but eventually Achilles killed Hector.Hector's last request was to be returned to his family to be buried honourably, Achilles refused and tied Hector's corpse to the back of his chariot and rode around the city. Every day Achilles did the same, until King Priam came forth from the city and begged Achilles to return Hector's dead body. Achilles was so moved by the weeping old man that he returned the corpse and declared a twelve day truce for Hector's burial to take place.
