Tale of Troy's ruin (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

story

'tale' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'troy's ruin' is the wordplay.
'ruin' indicates anagramming the letters.
'troys' is an anagram of 'STORY'.

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for story that I've seen before include "Account, tale" , "See 10 and 19" , "Rumour" , "Narration" , "Narrative or account" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
