Awoken by yelling and the sound of metal, your tiny eyes opened and looked around. Seeing a man in the room, thinking it was your father. The man came over and picked you up in his arms, walking out to the balcony. The air was cold outside, fire down in the city made the sky bright. Your eyes stared at the pretty colors, happy sounds that came from you made the man more uneasy than he already was.

You were taken to the edge of the cities walls, dangling over the edge. You stared at the man confused, he was on the verge of crying. Then you were dropped, but quickly caught by the man. He sat down against the wall, holding you close. Tears fell from his face as he muttered apologies.

After a few minutes, he stood up with you, strapping you against his breast plate and walking off to a ship. You saw many faces, they were all confused at seeing you there.

“Ody! Is that a baby?” A man with a red band around his head came over, looking rather happy “Yes, Hectors.” Your tiny mind remembered hearing something similar to that before, the man holding you was Odysseus. “Can I hold him?” The man asked and Odysseus shook his head, holding you tighter.
