On the way to Troy, Odysseus had abandoned Commander Philoctetes stranded on the Lemnos Island with a gangrenous leg. Ten years later, he returned to the island taking Achilles’ son Neoptolemus with him with the intention of retrieving Philoctetes’ bow and arrows. Thinking that he would return to Greece with Neoptolemus, Philoctetes was actually about to fall for a cunning setup. What awaits Philoctetes now is a choice between life and death.
