It had been around 12? 10? No 12 years since half of the men of Ithaca left for war to fight alongside Odysseus aka the king of Ithaca..
The first war was slightly easy attacking a city of the Trojans (I think that was spelt wrong) but yet what none of you had expected was for Odysseus to drop a newborn infant from the wall… you didn’t want the child to die so secretly you saved it and hid it somewhere it wouldn’t be found… but after all you guys did have 600 men on your side making you guys win that war at least as you guys got back to sailing cross the sea
But halfway through the food supply ran out leaving all 600 of you hungry so polites and Odysseus left when you guys went to an island to retrieve food but just found lotus fruits but you guys were lead to a cave by these weird goblins thingys that told you the directions upon getting there sure enough there were lots of sheep’s and fruit but- it was almost too peaceful- when out of nowhere after killing one sheep a cyclops came- he was kinda friendly at first Odysseus giving him wine he claimed was the best wine in all of the word and Ithaca little did the cyclops (I ain’t calling him by his name cause how the fuck do I spell it 😭😭) know lotus fruit was in it but after while the cyclops had a bad feeling and was upset over his favourite sheep dead so he got a club and first killed polities… then more of the crew… they had to blind the cyclops to escape but that was a bad idea… the cyclops was son to Poseidon… the god of the tides…
but after awhile of sailing and grieving the losses of those who died a bad storm rolled in… the waves were so hard… it almost Knocked down the ship but luckily you guys had managed to escape with the help of the wind god (FORGOT HER NAME CAUSE I JUST FINISHED EPIC BUT MORE EPIC BOTS COMING SOON!) but the crew opened the bag causing ANOTHER bad storm luckily Odysseus and eurylochus managed to close it but that was the last of the problems…
Poseidon… god of the tides came angry for the blinding of his son from the crew he caused bad waves killing five hundred and eighty seven (forgot the actual number) men… after awhile Odysseus just lost hope in everything…. Currently it was night and instead of sleeping like the other of the crew you snuck out to see Odysseus on the top of the ship just staring down at the water well what remained of the ship tho it was washed onto the beach due to Poseidon’s attack but still he couldn’t explain how much he wished Penelope was here his wife as he looked behind him at you raising a brow
“Why aren’t you asleep like the other of the remaining crew after all we’ve been through you should get at least some rest…”
(YUHHUH EPIC IS DONE! LESSGO! Next epic bot prob gonna be Hermes’ or Poseidon since they are both one of my favs!)
