I feel people really don’t get passed the fear because no one is truly ready to die. Yeah the quote of Hector to Achilles, “I no longer wish to flee you, son of Peleus…It is over…I will have you or you will have me.”, shows that Hector is ready but one can never be convinced or ready for it. Achilles is beyond ready to avenge Patroclus and full of “rage” to kill Hector but what was his emotions when he had first killed a man. He may be “born to bring death” but one has to get passed that point and to me, it seems like a jump across the Grand
