We luckily escaped the wrath of Polyphemus :| Odysseus’ plan has proven to be successful! Oh Odysseus, son of Laertes, King of Ithaca, I remain indebted to you. We reached the Aeolian island next, the home of Aeolus, Hippotas’ son, beloved by the gods.* Polyphemus was destroyed!

[muliusofcrete]

Hmm, Odysseus just got a giant sack from Aeolus. Must be filled with money for the trip home, and he gets to keep it all. Great -_- Aeolus loads him down with treasure, while we, who went through slogging just as hard, go empty-handed.* It’s not fair that Odysseus does not acknowledge how much we toil under the sun’s heat. He has promised us that we will receive our shares of gold. Oh what disaster falls upon us! 10 years away from my family, 10 years…

[muliusofcrete]

Well, back to the waters again. When are we gonna get home?!? Hurry, let’s see what loot is in that sack! Break it open now!* Oh no, it fell out of my hands!

[muliusofcrete]

Damn, he’s mad. Back in Aeolus again. Turns out that Aeolus gave Captain a hydraulic motor to expedite the journey home. No wonder it was so heavy and irregularly shaped!   

Don’t get mad at me Captain. 

[muliusofcrete]

He doesn’t seem too happy…

[muliusofcrete]

Reached another island known as the Laestrygonian land… lost our route…. What are these robots doing here! nooo! Brian, they took him away!! Run friends, run!!!

[muliusofcrete]

Escaped in the nick of time! Heart’s still beating. Have… to… sleep…

[muliusofcrete]

SOOO HUNGRY!!!! Odysseus, how can we continue without food?

[muliusofcrete]

Hmm, strange island we reached here. Circe, the nymph with lovely braids, who can speak with human voice* rules here. Maybe she might help us! 

[muliusofcrete]

Captain brought us plenty of food for two entire days! What a hero! That deer looks so delicious! LOOK AT ALL THAT FOOD!!!

[muliusofcrete]

Ahh the smell of chicken topped with butter sauce, lamb, and boiled cabbage! The whole house is echoing to her song!* We must gather ourselves a feast in the beloved Circe’s house!

[muliusofcrete]

I don’t feel too good. No! My body resembles that of a swine now! Oh my fellow shipmates, don’t worry, our great captain will set this all back to normal. Curse you Circe!

[muliusofcrete]

What is Circe going to do with us! I hope I’m not for lunch! 

[muliusofcrete]

Oh Odysseus! Now that you are here to save us, set us free! Get us out of this rancid mess! She will turn us all into pigs or wolves or lions made to guard that palace of hers by force!*

[muliusofcrete]

Thank the Lord

We have been set free! I feel like human again :D
