It is his duty
I only know of one city called Troy and that was the Troy of the Iliad. The Romans never invaded that Troy, in fact they didn't even exist as a people at the time. The founder of Rome, Aeneas, according to Virgil, was supposed to be a refugee from Troy. We don't specifically know what language the Trojans spoke, but it was more than likely Greek or some dialect of Greek.
Aeneas married the daughter of the Latin king. Aeneas, his son, their descendants became prominent rulers in Italy.
