Anchies In Aeschylus's Furies

In Aeschylus’s Furies, we noted the close relationship a father and son had during this time period. When Aeneas enters the underworld, we see the special bond and how devoted Aeneas and his father are to each other. When Anchises first sees Aeneas “he reached out both his hands as his spirits lifted (Virgil, Aeneid, p. 205, 6.792).

What does this mean?? If Anchises was just telling Aeneas about all of the future heros of Rome and all of the glory they will have, why is Anchises sending Aeneas through the gate of “false
