The epic is a genre that exalt the courage and deeds of the hero. Achilles is an exemplification of the valour, and highly positive traits that an epic hero must have. All the adventures and deeds in the epic are told using an elevated style, option B, in order to magnify the actions of the hero, who is susceptible to external forces, the wrath or benevolence of the Gods, as we can read in "The Odyssey" and "The Illiad".
