"Actions are the seed of fate; deeds grow into destiny."
In the third book of the Aeneid, Vergil describes the gradual unveiling of the destiny of Aeneas and his men. In your third blog, you should:
(1) Re-tell the story of the third book of the Aeneid from the perspective of Aeneas' friend Achates.
(2) As you are telling the story, discuss the role of destiny in determining the travels of the Trojans. How does Achates react to the various setbacks they face? Is he grateful that they have a larger destiny, or is he jealous of those whose desired ends have been reached?
