Apollo sends a great plague upon the Greek camp. Many soldiers die so, after ten days, Achilles calls an assembly of the Achaean army and asks for a soothsayer to tell them what happened and what to do.
At another point Achilles is about to kill the Achaean commander when Athena comes to calm him down and prevent the fight.
