Odysseus and his men landed briefly on the island of Laestrygones, which inhabit fierce cannibals. Now, they are making their way to the land of Aeaea, home of the goddess Circe, who some consider a witch. Some of the men, not including Odysseus, but including Eurylochus, a trusted officer of Odysseus's, went to explore Circe's land.

- Oh hello, men! Come join me for some wine. It has a little pinch of something I added!
- Ooooh!
- I don't like this... I am going to go back to Odysseus and tell him that these men are falling for Circe's trap.
- "So reassured, they all cried out together, and she came in swiftly to the shining doors to call them in. All but Eurylochus - who feared a snare" (Homer 387). Once Eurylochus was gone, Circe transformed the men that came to her into pigs!

- Oh no! Don't worry, I will retrieve the men.
- Odysseus was given a magical plant, Moly, from Hermes, the Greek Messenger, to make him immune of Circe's spell temporarily.

- I know what you've come here for. You are to stay here for one year, and then I will let you and your men go. But, after I set you free, you must pay a visit to the Land of the Dead and listen to Tiresias. Then come back to me so I know you went.
- Okay.
- Once Odysseus and his men have been released, they arrived at the Land of the Dead as per Circe's agreement.

- Okay, everyone. Calm down! I am Odysseus and "I [swear] to sacrifice a black lamb, handsomest of all our flock" (Homer 388). Does anyone know where Tiresias is?
- GRRR! WHO IS THIS TRESSPASSER?
- Odysseus sacrifices the lamb and many more animals, and looks for Tiresias. In the process, he encounters Elpenor, one of his men that died during Circe's encounter. Elpenor talked about his death, and asked Odysseus to find his body and conduct a proper funeral. Odysseus promises to do so. Odysseus continues looking for Tiresias (blind prophet)
- Diapositiva: 16
- Ah, Odysseus. You've come.
- Yes... Is this Tiresias?
- Yes. I have an important message to give to you. DO NOT EAT THE CATTLE! There will be consequences.
- Okay... That makes me think of how I miss my family, and I just want to get back to Ithaca!
- I understand. Now, you must report back to Circe.
- Okay.
- Odysseus goes back to Circe, who gives him advice: She says to "listen with care to this, now, and a god will arm your mind" (Homer 392). On the way back, you will encounter Sirens, Scylla, and the Charybdis. She warns him to wear earplugs and get tied to the steering wheel. Odysseus only tells his men about the Sirens because they were so worried, and this leaves them unprepared.

- "My men all blanched against the gloom, our eyes were fixed upon that yawning mouth in fear of being devoured" (Homer 396).
- After the Charybdis left, the men continued on, and eventually landed at the Land of Thrinicia. At Thrinicia, the men ate cattle, which they were NOT supposed to eat.

- I've killed all your men with this lightning. It is punishment for not following what Tiresias said.
- Zeus struck all of Odysseus's men with lightning, so now Odysseus is on his own. Later, King Alcinous provides Odysseus with a ship, but that's a story for another time! The End!
