Any help with this would be much appreciatd. Thank You

Remember that Achilles was the son of a deity and a human. What kinds of conflict can that produce, do you think?

Were there other main characters who would have been considered demigods?
Did any gods and/or goddesses step in to try to change any actions or outcomes during any parts of this story?
