Queen Dido is ill fated to commit suicide by putting herself to fire. Aeneas is ill fated to show indifference to her passionate love. War frenzy drove Aeneas mad enough to reject love appeals of Dido which he later repented. So human beings are shown to be victims of fatalism. In spite of their strong will power, they could not exert their will.Aeneas's narrative is heavy with fatalism from beginning to end. He awakens from a dream - in which Hector is directing him to leave his doomed city of Troy and establish a new homeland for his people - to find the Greeks destroying Troy. By the end of Book 2 he has begun his journey to the west. In Book 4 the love affair with Dido is also fated to end in tragedy as the gods, and specifically Mercury, again direct Aeneas to resume his journey to his destined homeland in Italy. In Book 6 his visit to the underworld again confirms his destiny. In the second half of the Aeneas the Rutulian leader Turnus somewhat takes on the role of doomed protagonist that Dido has in Book 4: his fate is sealed because destiny has ordained it so.
