For this reason, the hero even considers withdrawing his
army. But from the Greeks he must avenge the death of his
cousin, the hero Sarpedon. Thereupon, the great Glaukos be-
gins to fight valiantly at the head of his army.As soon as he is
thrown into the battlefield, he defeats the armies of the Achae-
ans, the hero and his army.
Realizing the ambition and success of Glaukos, who defeat-
ed many great warriors, Diomedes challenges the hero. He is
Diomedes, who managed to get the Trojan horse into the city
and is the greatest warrior of the Achaeans after Achilles. There-
upon, the Greek valiant is surprised when he says that as the
grandson of the hero Glaukos Bellerophon, he can meet every-
one without fear. Because the hero Bellerophon is a very close
friend of Diomedes father Oeneus. Upon this, Diomedes cannot
see Galukos as an enemy and gives up fighting him. So much
so that the two braves bid each other farewell by giving each
other their war armor as gifts. However, Glaukos, a descendant
of the hero Bellerophon, would not be so lucky in the end. An-
other valiant Achaean who was in Achilles’ army is martyred by
Aias, the Lycian hero.
The dead body of the martyred Glaukos is taken back to
his country Lycia by Aeneas. However, the Lycian Army, which
lost its second great leader, suddenly loses all its motivation.
Realizing this, the valiant Achilles takes advantage of this sit-
uation and rushes against the Trojan alliance with his soldiers.
At that moment, the bloodiest scene of the war takes place in
the Greek-Anatolian struggle. Lycian warriors fight to the death
for the last time. However, they are not strong enough to stop
the hero Achilles and his army. In the war that Troy fell, all the
Lycians were martyred heroically. Except for just one of them.
