6. Eris ---> F) goddess of discord

7. Nestor ----> C) survivor of the Trojan War

Explanation: Oenone was a mountain nymph and Paris's girlfriend before he left her for Helen of Sparta, who is considered one of the main causes of the Trojan War. The Trojan War is explored in The Iliad, an epic poem that has Achilles, the son of Thetis and Peleus, as its central character. Although Achilles does not survive the Trojan War, Nestor does. Nestor fought the war on the side of the Achaeans, who had Athena, also known as Pallas, as their ally. Another Greek goddess was Eris, the goddess of discord. Moreover, Laertes was the father of Odysseus, who also fought the war on the side of the Achaeans. Laertes waited for his son to come back home for a long time. Furthermore, Orestes also waited for his father, Agamenon, to come back home from the war even though he was not home when he finally returned.
