My 20-Year Journey
Well
I have traveled many places throughout my life, but this is the most insane and
gut wrenching journey I have ever endured. My Crew and I ventured out into the
vast seas during the Trojan War we have come across many places and met many
people. During the course of our adventure we have landed on the island of the
Cicones which we invaded their land and then left. Later we almost reached home
but we were blown off course literally blown by the bag of wind opened by my
buffoons of a crew. On the island of the lotus-eaters we found our men refusing
to come back onto the ship where the strong man I am had to carry them and tie
them to the seat. The island of The Lotus Eaters was no match to the Cyclops
even though are men were seduced under the influence of the lotuses, the
Cyclops strength was breath taking he locked us in a cave with a boulder not
even the gods could move it seemed as if it weighed as much as the world. We
ended up venturing to the Land of the Dead where I fell in tears. For I had
seen my beautiful mother sitting in the land of hades, I was the one who caused
her to take her life she said it was to much to bear the loss of me and she couldn’t
keep suffering… I hear, I hear a beautiful sound coming from the island of the sirens.
Wait that is the beautiful women who sing to try to tempt you to stay on their
island just like the lotus-eaters. We mustn’t be tempted I must go and tell my
fellow crew members. I will return later to inform details.
