Answer: Divine intervention.

Explanation: Epic conventions are formal characteristics that epic poems generally share in common. Divine intervention is the involvement of a deity in the affairs of humans, in other words, it is a miracle or act of god (or gods) that causes something good to happen or stops something bad from happening. In the given excerpt we can see an example of divine intervention when Hera (Goddess of women, family and marriage) stopped the craft to crash.
