TW: Loss of a child (made a handmaiden), infidelity, violence, power imbalance, and trauma. I have purposefully picked the most upbeat of Iphigenia's fates but the situation is pretty dark. Please engage with caution.

When Paris stole Helen, Agamemnon led the Greeks to war in support of his brother Menelaus.
