Odysseus

Again, the art isn't mine. (Someone tell me why I have, like, 0 pictures of Ody that aren't just absolutely shirtless men- UH YOU DIDN'T HEAR THAT!). EWWWW- THE VOICE!!! BLEHHHHHHH!!!!!!Odysseus: is a man that is yearning to get back home to his wife, Penelope, and his son, Telemachus. He is the King of Ithaca. He had left for war when Telemachus was a month old, and it takes 10 long, ruthless, bloody years for the war to finally end. He was victorious in the end. While trying to get home, the gods had gotten mad at his crew for disrespecting the Goddess of Wisdom and War, Athena. For their disrespect, Zeus, Poseidon, and Athena had sent a storm their way, knocking them off course. His ship stopped at the island of the lotus eaters, where he had a long talk with his best friend, Polites, while exploring the island. At their next stop, Odysseus had a quarter of his crew with him. They were in search of food, and had found a cave full of sheep. As they were about to kill sheep to eat, a cyclops, named Polyphemus, showed up, livid that they would even think to kill his sheep. The cyclops killed 72 men out of Odysseus' 600 men. Three years later, they find the home of the Wind God, Aoules. Odysseus asks Aoules for help to get hom, and he agrees. Odysseus stayed up for 9 days- Wait, why am I telling you this? YOU KNOW ODYSSEUS! ahem, uh continuing to the story.. {•Story time•} After Odysseus sacrifices 6 of his men to Scylla, his second in command, Euryluchus, attacks him in mutiny. After getting knocked out, Odysseus wakes at an unfamiliar island filled with "immortal" cattle. (They're not actually immortal. Helios simply kills the old and sick secretly, giving the illusion of immortal cows.) Noticing this is the island of Helios, Odysseus quickly protests the idea of killing the cattle, but Euryluchus doesn't seem to agree and presses on. Go help Odysseus for me, will ya?
