Transcript

00:00In the golden embrace of youth, I was a soul untouched by the burdens of the world.

00:11I am Iphigenia, summoned by my father, Agamemnon, with promises veiled in affection and deceit.

00:20The day dawned, with visions of honor and grandeur, a union with a hero of legend.

00:26My heart danced with dreams of a future bathed in royal light, yet this joy was nothing but

00:33a fleeting shadow, an illusion woven to conceal a darker truth.

00:41The whispers of unease, the sidelong glances, each one tightened the noose of fate around

00:46me.

00:47My father's eyes, once brimming with pride, now reflected a sorrowful weight I could scarcely

00:53comprehend.

00:56Inside the war-tent, the truth hit me like a cold, sharp wind.

01:01My marriage was just a cruel disguise, hiding the dark reality of my sacrifice.

01:06I wasn't brought here to marry a hero.

01:09I was brought here to be a pawn in a grim game of fate.

01:13Father, how could you unravel my life so cruelly?

01:18I was nothing more than a sacrificial lamb, thrust into a dark abyss of deceit and sacrifice.

01:24The love I once held for you shattered into a million pieces, each fragment echoing my

01:30profound sorrow and disbelief.

01:33As I walked towards the altar, each step was a relentless march toward my end.

01:38The faces around me, some with pity, others with cold detachment, were blurred by my tears.

01:45The world I cherished had disintegrated, leaving behind only the stark reality of my inevitable

01:51fate.

01:52In those final, harrowing moments, I sought solace not in the fear of death, but in the

01:58acceptance of my grim role.

02:00I could only hope that my sacrifice would breathe life into the sails of the Greek fleet,

02:06that it would redeem my father's sins and secure their victory.

02:10Yet, my soul wept for the life I would never live, for the dreams that would perish with

02:16me.

02:17I was sacrificed not just to the gods, but to the unyielding demands of men.

02:22If this is the fate of women, to be pawns in a game we never chose, then who will mourn

02:27for the lives we might have lived?

02:30In my death, let it be known that a woman's strength is not in her sacrifice, but in her

02:36defiance of a world that expects it.
