He is joined by the goddess Athena, who is incensed by the Greeks exoneration of Ajax the Lessers actions in dragging away the Trojan princess Cassandra from Athena's temple (and possibly raping her). Together, the two gods discuss ways to punish the Greeks, and conspire to destroy the home-going Greek ships in revenge.
