What convinces Aeneas' father to leave troy?

Aeneas' father, Anchises, is convinced to leave Troy after Aeneas receives a divine sign in the form of a vision from the god Hermes, who urges them to escape the burning city. Anchises initially hesitates due to his old age and attachment to their home, but ultimately he is persuaded by Aeneas' determination and the realization that their survival and the future of their lineage depend on leaving Troy. The prospect of a new destiny and the hope of finding a new homeland also motivate Anchises to join his son in the escape.
