Probably the best epic poem I have ever read!
Bonus points for the Troy and Illiad MVP Hector references.

“‘And why should I tarry?’ And smiled with tranquil eye. ‘In destinies sad or merry, true men can but try.’”

IF you can get into the way it is written then it's a wonderful story.

Me gustó mucho la historia. Ya conocía la historia por la adaptación que hizo David Lowery para A24.
Es muy bella y vivida la escritura y resulta fácil leer los símbolos que están diseminados por el relato.

Alliterative is definitely an interesting genre I never knew about, and this kept my interest more than Beowulf or the Odyssey, but I can't help but think that if I were critiquing this piece in a writing workshop, I would tell the author that it was completely contrived.

I enjoyed this translation! Fun to do a bit of academic reading on my own.
