In my experience, prayer tends to do worse than better.
Achilles made his announcement in public, that we might play witness to... what, a great service against a creature who does our team more harm than good? [He has no great love of Koltira, but Laedo has then again never really done any work to assuage his opinion after his original sullen interaction with the elf.]
Or could it be that Achilles, son of Peleus, feels that he has much to lose in front of the members of Audentes that he must prove himself in violence? Perhaps our greatest human warrior needs more to be reminded that he has already proven himself here, that this is not his homeland, that we need not see a sacrifice in order to respect his abilities.
Perhaps he needs be reminded that overturning rocks to unleash bitter rivalries in the middle of a tenuous claim to the fates of all in this branch of the timeline would do more to utterly demolish our love and good will.
[This he says conversationally, though of course he's happily spouting it with half an ear to hope that other muscle-bound magnificently maned humans are listening to the clucking, hypocritical disapproval.]
