Odysseus has many arguments he uses to induce Achilles to rejoin the Greeks in Iliad 9. He goes into a long discourse about wellbeing and destiny and how Zeus is looking down on them. Odysseus at that point raises Achilles' father Peleus and how he prompted him that Athene and Hera would give him power. He keeps on disclosing to Achilles that Agamemnon offers him "commendable reward" in the event that he quits being angry and is putting forth him many offerings which comprise of horses, cauldrons, gold, ladies, and a whole lot more. A life of glory, to be remembered as the greatest of the warlords was also one of the arguments used.
