Set against the backdrop of the Trojan War, this tragic love story explores themes of love, betrayal, and the fickleness of fate. Troilus, a proud warrior, initially dismisses love until he falls for Cressida, aided by his friend Pandarus. Their romance quickly turns to heartbreak when Cressida, taken to the Greek camp, chooses to align with Diomede, leading to her betrayal of Troilus. Chaucer's work delves into the complexities of human emotions amidst the chaos of war.
