The story of Achilles has always creeped me out. Imagine getting shot in the heel with a fucking arrow. Seems like one of the worst places. OTOH I guess no place is exactly good.
I mean, back then, a complete Achilles rupture likely meant you were permanently disabled.
Indeed, which is why getting shot in the heel was every warrior's Achilles Heel.
tbf, an arrow anywhere was bad news.
