Thetisβ second child was Achilles, a legendary Greek hero who played a major role in the Trojan War.
Zeus did not marry Thetis because of a prophecy that stated their offspring would be more powerful than their father. To avoid being overthrown, Zeus arranged for Thetis to marry the mortal Peleus instead, who fathered Achilles.
Queen Cassiopeia offends the goddess Thetis by boasting that she, Cassiopeia, and her daughter Andromeda are more beautiful than the Nereids, who are the sea nymph daughters of Thetis. This vanity and arrogance prompt Thetis to ask Poseidon to send a sea monster to terrorize Cassiopeia's kingdom as punishment.
Zeus is reluctant to grant Thetis' request to make Achilles invincible in battle because it would upset the balance of power among the gods. He knows that giving Achilles this advantage could lead to chaos and conflict among the other gods. Additionally, Zeus is aware of the consequences that immortality could have on Achilles' destiny and mortal life.
