    I think Amir’s attempts, throughout the story, to make up for the rape situation make him a wise and good character.

    Moreover, the conclusion of the ceremony was a speech delivered by a top Athenian citizen. Even though, Thucydides records the speech from Pericles in first person, there can be some uncertainty that he wrote every single thing Pericles.
