Posting again fellow stalkers!
We had landed on the infamous island of Circe, the beautiful and very crazy goddess. When we landed on the island, Odysseus had told half of the crew to stay on the ship, and we were of that half, and the other half was told to go with Eurylochus, to Circe's frightening abode. She arrived at the door and invited them in to enjoy a feast, and being the greedy men that they were, they charged in without a second thought. However, Eurylochus feared that this was a trap and didn't go in. Instead, he fled to the ship and brought back the unfortunate news that the men were turned into pigs by the goddess! When Odysseus heard the news, he bravely decided to risk his sacred life in trying to rescue his men, and return them to their human form. Even though we were told to wait behind, Ricena and I determined that it would be in our best interest to follow him, so we could get the truest of information. While he was on his way, he came across the messenger god, Hermes, who gave him an extraordinary elixer which would protect him from all of that ugly hag's evildoing. The potion worked flawlessly, and when Circe realized that the who the great warrior standing before her was the famous Odysseus, she gained a new respect for him. This caused the greed in her eyes to show, as she attempted to lure him to her chambers to make love. Now we believe that Odysseus was thinking about how much he would rather be with us, since we are far more beautiful than the goddess, but since my partner and I are dressed up as men, this is hard to be sure of. Anyways, since he could not be with us, he decided to do whatever he could to save his crew from her dadsterdly ways! Just a few days later, he could not take anymore of Circe, he ordered her to return his men to humans. Once this happened, the crew rejoiced and ran back with Odysseus to retrieve the other men. They were overjoyed to see them all alive and healthy, and then we all went back to her mansion to live. Despite our wishes, we too were forced to live in the presence of the ugly hag, who thought she could steal Odysseus from us! About one year later, the crew's begging finally brought Odysseus back to his senses, and he informed the goddess that we were to leave in the morning. The goddess had informed us that to get home we had to go down to Hades and we had to talk to Tireseis. With this dreaded information, we plan to set sail tomorrow. That's all for now, and wish us luck!
