God I’m starting to wish these things are ghost instead. What do I mean exactly? These walking metal machines, the creaking and screeching noise is annoying and distracting and not only that It’s like I’m being baby sat! I don’t even see my parents often, it’s like I’m being raised by these things instead of actual people. I actually wonder what my town looked like before it became to a such dull and lifeless place. Intelligence is key to living in my world, if you don’t meet the required standards then straight to the factory you go, if your family does not produce a child who can’t meet the noble standard in over 5 years off to the factory they go, never to be seen or heard again. It’s not even better if your at the bottom of the noble ranking and if you are you are basically asking to be stripped of from your title, thank god my family is one of the top 3 highest ranking noble/aristocratic in our state. We don’t even know how to dress ourselves nor cook, we basically depend on these things and not only to make it worse the people I’m around with don’t make the situation better! Well except Camille of course. Well sometimes. We don’t even have an actual teacher but a robot with a feminine voice, it sucks. Well not until I got to visit the factory. The factory, where my life turned upside down. Oh boy the things I’ve done were not so pretty… I can’t even imagine how these workers are able to cope with the smell and temperature, I can’t believe such a thing exist and I didn’t know of it until now, Robots swarmed this place, I can’t even describe the smell. Someone get me out of here, one thing led to another I met him. Yes. HIM. Tyson. Where are the descendants of these people that work here? They make me feel at home,I’ve never smiled so much to what is referred as a joke, turns out decades ago a doofus named Paulo offered this idea to the previous Grand Duke and he liked it, Call it making life easier I say it’s making everyone lazy. It’s so hard to trust anyone when everyone is a two faced, I am to but it’s hard to keep living a happy life when everything is set set in place for you. Welcome to my world, the names Y/N Estelle.

America, the paradise where the sun shines high in the blue sky and birds chirp freely and happily. But that's as good as it gets. In this lovely world, the rich rules over the poor, and politicians over both. There's good and bad, fair and unfair, much like our world but with a little twist. Its all a lie. No one lives their lives freely and at their fullest. Everything is watched and monitored at all times. And there is no way out of it. This world is called, "The Balanced World". And in this world, there's a kid names Chris who seeks his freedom but just doesn't know how to start or where to look. After all, anything he tries will always be stopped. He's been on this thing for weeks, over and over again, and when it seems he's done it, he trips over a stick that showed up out of no where. He was about to give up until some poor old slave explains to him the nightmare of a world in which they live in. There's 2 world, the normal world, and the government world. The government is viewed as angels, they are miracle workers and help everyone through out the world. But the old guy describes the government in a different traumatizing way. He calls people from that world, "numbers", and says everything that has happened to Chris up till now is their work. They're playing god with him and everyone around him. They play everyone in the entire earth like puppets. He states he was once part of it himself and claims to be a nightmare. He saw people descend from this world over and over again. Not once did he see a life who didn't perish that instant. He asks of Chris to run, but there was no escape from a force you can't outrun. Starting from here things just get weirder and weirder. Chris gets kidnapped and brought into a hell like no other. The "Numbers" playing as God. These savages control everything. From the way your life starts, to how you exhale your last breath. But such power came with a price. Living a nightmare over and over again killed their humanity, and made them monsters. Their huge eyes bleeding blood, covering their face and body. And such control isn't done by a small, or even big group of people, but by cities full of blood thirsty creatures locked on into screens that overlook all of humanity. In the end all of this was necessary for one ultimate goal. Freedom.

After more searching I've been lucky to find more on who I am other than knowing about June. Recently I've broken into another one of her old labs and I've been lucky that it still hold this 300 year old information, but to get to the point I've found the original owners of the right and left arms and maybe some organs I don't know much on those. These were two kids that went by the names Koya and Lucio, ages 16 and 15.
After contacting a disease Koya was admitted into their local hospital where they were reluctant to meet Lucio, a lower class boy who had been dealing with the same thing for a longer while by now. Within their unlikely friendship it was easy to see the injustice now but soon Koya would have to deal with it directly after finding out something horrifying. The room here is becoming limited now, I will continue this later.

The year was 2090, Palisai has a population of 20 million people and is a cashless society, meaning that its residents use virtual currency that is known as Vil, 10 Vil = 1 USD. The government controls the banking system and parents with smartphones companies and allow the government to guarantee usage of virtual wallets in most places where there is a scanner to pay. I am located in the metropolis of Palisai within the great Vilhelm Empire. The human race is disgusting, I have seen people act of what they don't really feel. Humans crave for attention to seem special and always hung around popular people so they can feel that attention to not be alone. Their is always something hidden from the truth and that is the real truth. Even if a place seems peaceful and beautiful, nothing can be that where the beautiful and peaceful can turn into disgusting and cruel.

In his world he would not want to go out in the streets seeing a girl and a girl holding hands all cuddly it makes him uncomfortable. By now it should be normal said Blaire anyone can be whoever they want to be and love whoever they feel like loving. A couple months went by and Blaire has been string at the same four walls because she can not even go out and explore the world because she has a anklet that tases  her every time she wants to go out it is sad because she can not go out to the park,stores,amusement parks, parties,etc. Everyday on the news its the same story making people hate the lgbtq+ community and it is very sad and offensive. Kathleen Blaire"s mother does not realize how much she suffers everyday but Kathleen does not realize because she is able to go out and live a normal life while her daughter is dying inside her house. They will try their best to protest and stop the government.

It started off as regular day everyone in the community followed the same routine. They were never able to go wherever  they wanted. They had a gate that separated white people from the colored people.They had a tracker on them and they had that on them so they could see where everyone was and they made they were not somewhere where they were not supposed to be. If they were ever out they would go get them but that hardly ever happened. The kids were the only ones that didn't know why evryone was they same and why they had to do stuff at a certain time. But their parents knew  why they had to do the things they do. People were had way more fun before someone came and ruined it all their days just became boring because they were not able to do much. But Riley asked her mom why nothing ever happened. Her mom told her it all started when their president came. The president basically thought that they shouldn't talk to people that weren't the same color as them. That is messed up because people should be able to talk whoever. Riley then found a way to reach out to someone that didn't have the same skin color as her. His name was Jayden. They found a way to meet up and they planned a way to end the president did. They had meeting to attend to this meeting happened every month. So Riley spoke up for everyone. Jayden then came out after Riley spoke up. The president didn't like that they did that. The presidents name was Winston. So they ended up getting they wanted they took down the wall that separated them. They didn't have follow no rountine or where no tracker on them. They could go wherever without having to wear a tracker on them. Finally everyone could talk to whoever and meet different people.

It was a hot summer in 1246, on a beautiful small island called Spiritual Island people practiced and believed in their own religion. At that time President Bamboo ruled . It was the last days President Bamboo governed the island. Two weeks later a new President was elected and his name was President Nabu. President Nabu suffered a horrific past which led him to ban religion and things to do with it. If he found out people practiced their religion he would give them a consequence or they would be killed. A 15 year old girl named Graciela did not feel good about it. She wanted to find out more about why religions were banned.

First, President Nabu started to govern the Island. He was able to make his own laws. His first law was that no one could practice or believe any religion. Graciela and another group of people did not like this law; they did not want to give up on what they believed in. Once a week the president soldiers would go and check every house to see if the people had anything to do with their religion. One day the soldiers found a bible in the house of Jack, Graciela’s best friend. The soldiers arrested him and took him to the office of President Nabu where he gave Jack a consequence. President Nabu told the soldiers to whip Jack thirty times and to tell all the people to gather in the temple to see. The soldiers went ahead and went to the village.One of them said, people from Spiritual Island President Nabu have ordered for all of you to gather in the temple tomorrow morning.

Next, The next day everyone gathered in the temple. The people were saying to each other what was going to happen.Then 2 soldiers came with Jack his hands and feet were tied. The soldiers tied him to a barrel so he didn’t move. When Graciela saw him she tried to stop the soldiers, one of the soldiers grabbed her and didn’t let her go. Two soldiers got a whip and whipped Jack 30 times when they were finished the soldiers left him abandoned. Graciela and 2 other people went to help Jack. They took him to Graciela’s house to heal his wounds. Graciela was mad she questioned herself why the president was banning religion. So she reunioned some people in her house. She had a plan to find out why people couldn’t believe in what they wanted to believe in.

Then, when everyone was in Graciela house she started to speak. She said, tomorrow I am going to go inside the president's office to see if I can find any clue of why we can’t believe in what we want to believe in. The people said, how are you going to do that?'' Graciela said, need you guys help. The people said, yes we will help you in anything. Graciela said, I need you guys to distract the president by protesting. The people said, okay we will do it because we also want our freedom to practice our religions. When they all finished planning they were getting posters and signs ready. They all went home to get some rest.

When the sun rises up in the sky Graciela and the group of people she had were ready to do the plan they had planned. The group of people that supported Gabriela started to protest more and more people were joining them. The president saw what was happening so he called the soldiers to protect him. The president went outside to see what was happening. Graciela saw him go outside so she sneaked in his office. She started to see his stuff. What surprised her was that she saw a secret room where he had his things to do with his religion. She was looking for more things but wasn’t having any luck. Then she checked his desk and found a diary and found that the president Nabu was left alone by the age of 14 because there were wars because people didn’t like each other's religions. Graciel heard the president so she quickly hid in his secret room. The president got his keys and left. Graciela came out and left the president's office and went home. After 5 hours all the people that were protesting left for their homes. The next morning the people were protesting again. Graciela wanted to speak to the president. One of the soldiers led her to the president. Graciela told the president that she saw his diary and his room where he practiced his religion. The president was shocked and he said how do you know?'' Graciela said, I came yesterday and checked all your stuff and found out why you don’t let us practice our religion. President said, you can’t be here. Graciela said we want our freedom to practice our religion. Times have changed and there will be no war. President Nabu said, NO I can’t risk it,now leave. Gracela left and said, fine we will protest until we get our freedom

After, Graciela and her people protested for 20 more days until President Nabu had enough he went and told the soldiers to go call her. The soldiers went to her and told her to go meet the president in his office. Graciela went to his office. The president said if you sign this treaty you and the people can practice your religion you people believe in but, there would be no fighting or war. Graciela said, I promise. When she signed she went outside and told the people we have our freedom back. All the people shouted WOOHOO. All the people went to their homes and started to practice their religion with no fear of getting caught and getting punished. Finally, everyone was free and happy.

It was another wild morning in Orisha starting off with school. Abayomi got up and threw Abdu out of bed because she did not want to waste her morning and time getting him up. So they both get ready and they go downstairs to their mom cleaning in the kitchen.

They went on the bus and got to school right on time. They arrived at school and Abdu walked Abayomi to class making sure she gets there safely. Abdu got to class and they both went on with their school day. During lunch, Abayomi met up with Abdu to go talk and eat with him. After school, Abayomi and Abdu stopped at their house to change and ask mom if they can go to the woods. They got there and found a spot to set up their stuff. They brought snacks, water, a knife just in case of a dangerous animal, and ponchos if it rains. They set up their stuff and Abayomi already wanted to play around. So Abayomi and Abdu rested up from their 3 mile walk to the woods and they decided to start their journey by playing a game of tag. Abdu was the tagger and Abayomi was the runner.

Abdu started running, losing Abayomi. He got really worried for her and stopped playing tag but instead tried to look for Abayomi. Abayomi had no idea where her brother went, she still thought that they were still playing tag. She kept running and running until she noticed that Abdu wasn’t behind her, so she thought he was just playing with her and hiding. So she kept running until she ran and hit something. She got up, rubbed her head and she wasn’t sure what it was. Abdu is yelling her name and she starts following his voice. She found Abdu and he noticed the bruise on her head. Abayomi and Abdu went to the spot where Abayomi fell and they both questioned each other because there was nothing there. So Abdu kept walking towards that area and he hit his head too.  So he put his hand out and his hand stopped to a point to where it felt like a wall.

They start walking back home but they both were so confused and still confused about this whole situation. When they got home they had dinner but their mom noticed they were too quiet. So Abdu and Abayomi stayed up all night trying to figure out what that was. Next Morning, they came downstairs looking fatigue and sleepy. They didn’t want to go to school.

While watching their mom close the door and hearing her car, they ran upstairs and start talking about what had happen yesterday. Adbu is pacing back and fourth while Abayomi sits on the bed having her head down facing the floor.

Abayomi leads Abdu to the wall again and noticed that it was camouflaged to look like more of the woods. They followed the wall to then realize that it was four walls trapping the city of Orisha and all its people.

It was the day, the day they were going to find out what was on the other side of the wall. Abayomi was in charge of telling people what they’ve discovered. Abdu was in charge of gathering materials and having volunteers to help him find a way to climb the wall safely. The citizens packed their belongings, waiting by a tree where kids usually play. Abayomi and Abdu both met back up together. They both looked at each other, ran to their house to give their mom a hug telling her, “we’ll see you soon” and leaving. They were ready to start their climbing journey. Abdu was the first one up, getting caught by security guards. He was confused, wondering why there were security guards up there. Abdu was about 150 feet up on the wall. The others noticed him getting caught by the guards and also were confused and questioning why there were guards up there. They ran away as fast as they can, going back to their homes. Abdu was taken to one of the tallest buildings, it was the government and his heart dropped to his stomach. He was so scared, he didn’t know what was going to happen. Abayomi went back home with puffy eyes and a lost of breath and told her mom that security took Abdu. Abayomi starts telling her mom why that had happened and what they were trying to do this whole time. Abebe was shocked, she had spaced out for a while.

Abayomi ended up convincing Abebe to help her in rescuing Abdu back. They started to hear people screaming and yelling for help. They ran to the window and saw fires everywhere, guards handcuffing and hitting them with their batons. Abayomi and her mother were so afraid, afraid to imagine what might happen to Abdu.

The officers were only arresting the kids and teenagers of Orisha for no exact reason. Abayomi asked her mom a favor. She wanted her mom to ask the parents to distract the officers and let their kids escape somehow. Abebe starts running to houses, telling the parents that their kids should at lleast have a normal life. Abebe told the mothers and fathers what her daughter told her. While that is happening Abayomi goes back to the wall and starts climbing it. She makes it to the top seeing that there is a big gap between the real world and the world they live in now. She’s never felt so scared in her life. She doesn’t have any plans or what they’re going to do to escape. She runs back but is very sneaky about it because she’s trying to get to the building where her brother is. She ends up making it, talks to her brother and tries to get him out quietly. They start running but get caught halfway. The guards stared them down, blocking their path to freedom. She stared them down the same way, grabbing the pocket knife she has. Flinging it open with the blade. The guards thought that it was hilarious and tried to grab their arms but she sliced their wrists, making them bleed through their uniforms. She keeps running with Abdu, allowing them to go into the transporter that takes them to the wall, where Abdu sees all the kids standing by and waiting for him. He feels emotional but didn’t want to make a scene. Abayomi and Abdu grab their things and start helping the kids up the wall, looking back to make sure they don’t get caught. They pause for a second, they see their mom getting hit with the guards batons. They made it to the top of the wall, they looked back once again, seeing the city on fire and saw their mom getting arrested and put in a van. They both knew that they could not go back for her, so they say with a soft voice… “I love you” and continue to help the other kids get to the other side. It was only Abdu left and he was ready to go. He hears something fading in and it’s a whole group of guards running towards him. He slides down the rope quickly landing to the other side. He turns around and sees two guards sliding the rope trying to catch them. He gets really scared and grabs Abayomi’s pocket knife and starts cutting the rope, the rope was too thick so he tried cutting it faster. Finally the rope was cut and the guards falls off the cliff and left Abdu and Abayomi traumatized. They looked at the kids and then look at each other saying “We did it. We’re free. Watching the kids run away from their world on fire and entering the real world. They ran screaming with excitement, laughing, jumping around and they just kept running, running as fast as they can and for the first time, the world was bright.

Tiherra is a city in California everyone loves and enjoys, My name is Johnny Smalls I was born in Tiherra I've always loved this town until i got older and started to see what was going on. Never thought the place I loved would be such a horrible place. I found it strange that some people had to wear ugly masks over their face but I never thought much of it. I like to play sports and learn. Most people call me a genius. My parents were motivating and always supported what I did. One day my mom asked me at the dinner table” Do you have a girlfriend you have been acting weird lately” I replied “ No mom you Know the government doesn't allow that” .The Government doesn’t allow us to have a girlfriend or boyfriend until we are 18, Nobody knew what would happen if the Government found out that we had a boyfriend or girlfriend. One day my best friend Henry told me he had a girlfriend named brianna, and i told him that we were not allowed to have girlfriends, of course he didn't listen.
Henry and Brianna dated for about a month, until Saturday morning, Henry went missing. I thought that he had tried to run away with Brianna, but that wasn't possible because Brianna was still in the town. I asked Brianna “when was the last time you saw Henry, I'm really worried about him. He is my best friend and I miss Him”. She replied” I also miss him, the last time I saw him was at school on friday”. From that day forward my life changed forever. I knew it had to be something with the Government. There is no way somebody will just disappear into thin air. I was determined to find out what happened to my best friend and what other weird things are going on in this town. The Next Day I set out and skipped school to go on a journey around this town, but I had noticed every place I went around the town I couldn't find Henry. I was getting worried and at one point I thought my best friend was dead and I couldn't go any longer

without food. I was so hungry I could eat a horse,but out of the corner of my eye at a Grocery store I saw a strange brightness.
I walked into the grocery store, grabbed the bright figure and asked the cashier what it was. She replied” It is an ......” I couldn't hear her because of the hideous mask she was wearing. I asked one more time what it was and she replied” It is an apple have you never seen one”. I said it can't be. Why is it so glossy and beautiful? Earlier that day I had found a 20$ bill on the floor I paid for the apple and I went to a nearby library to use a computer to look up why the apple was so Beautiful. On a website I went on it said it was a thing called color, I thought to myself why have my teachers never taught me this and why am i just now experiencing it. On that note I was determined to keep on going I had bought a water bottle and an apple to keep me from going thirsty and hungry. The next day I ended up at an abandoned mansion it didn't look so abandoned but there was nobody in it. When I opened the door I saw a closet that I heard noise. I peaked my head in the door and it looked like an underground bunker where the government kept people who didn’t follow the rules. I also saw henry which made me happy, but I needed to figure out a way to get him I called his name and when nobody looked and it seemed tho everybody was sleep i went in the bunker and as I was looking for Henry’s cell I noticed something unusual it was a bright light shining down the hall so I hid under a desk to keep me from getting caught.
As I was hiding under the desk I heard the man talking about injecting some kind of serum in the people in the bunker so they can be laid to rest. In my head I told myself “I have to get these people out of here somehow some way”. By that time the guard was talking about me and how he has to take me out because I was discovering too much, my stomach twirled when I heard that

I didn’t know what to do and I went into complete panic. I almost got myself caught. About an hour later the guard finally leaves and I reach through Henry’s cell and tap and shake him. He wakes up and I tell him I’m here to save him, but I had forgotten that I needed a key to open the cell. I went through the desk drawers that I hid under and found the keys I open the cell and I give Henry a big hug and told him that nothing has been the same without him. I knew we couldn’t go back to Tiherra so he suggested we went to a nearby town called Steworthko. It was not that big of a town but we just needed a place to stay. Henry’s grandma lived there so we could stay at her house. As we were climbing out of the bunker we heard footsteps so we started rushing to the door we finally made it out of that horrible place now all that is to do is to get to Steworthko. It was certainly not that far.
As we made our way to Steworthko we knew there was lots of cameras so that’s why I brought us both black clothes for disguise. After 20 minutes we made it to Henry’s grandma's house we were surprised to see her waiting on us at the doorstep with both of our parents. It turned out that our parents had a chip in us so if we ever got lost they can find us. The next morning we hurried and set out to Vegas so we can live a normal life. Henry and his parents were so thankful that I would do such a thing to save Henry they knew where he was but they were afraid that if they went the would get executed immediately due to how old they were. I will never forget that day that is why I am telling my story for all the people who are afraid to overcome things. I also want to expose Tiherra for making my life the worst, but now I have started a new chapter in my life and me and my parents are going to start over in a new country far away from Tiherra wishing that our past will not catch up to us.

This country was as strict as two strict parents that do not let you have any freedom and lock you in a room forever.  It is 4016 in New York City In the United States. It's Winter but we are under a temporary lockdown. We are unable to be free or do anything that we are not told to do. We can only follow what the Government says and the President who is Donald Trump. The government assign's routines weekly and as well as jobs. When me and Grogu (my best friend and roommate) got out of lockdown we were assigned to be carpenters. There is one man that is lazy and does not follow the rules even when the police is not around but that day he fell asleep and when the police walked in. As soon as they walked in the started to beat him. The government does not give any chances, make one mistake or fall out of line once you are DEAD. Then thats when I realized that our society is broken. When the police are commanding us to do something is what is wrong but what is even more wrong is that we do not have any freedom in this country. Thats when i told Grogu what was wrong. He wouldn't come to realization and i kept trying to help him click but then it happened  he clicked out of the simulation  and told me we had to warn the others. The next day we had gone to work we spread the word and some people laughed and some people joined us. We ran as fast as we could  when the police were on their 5 minute break. We ran all the way to Canada but that's when we had to split up. Grogu took one group and I took another group I took most of the Mandalorians because they trusted me because I was one of them as well. We heard a loud bang and we went to go hide. When waited then went to go check what was it. It was Grogu dead on the ground with a gun shot wound. We heard more police coming so we ran. We ran crossing the Border all the way to Canada. I was happy and sad at the same time. I was happy because I was finally free in this country. I was sad at the same time because I lost my best friend. If you ever see something that is wrong then say or do something.

Grief, Something we need in life. In this story no one ever dies and the government is to blame for this, they are controlling and manipulative in many ways the people that where good with the idea of no death lived in a so called "perfect world" according to the leader of that place, but that place was far from perfect but they have yet to realize it is. The group that was not fond of the idea of there not being any death live in a dome where they where miserable and they where dying in silence and no one even cared about them and no one ever attempted to get out. That all changed in 2050 when a group of citizens had a plan the leader Henry was the one with the plan they all escaped except one which was one of there members son his name was Carter and his fathers name was Jeffrey, although Carter got captured they still proceeded with there plan they left carter behind they had to get past guards which they did even though it wasn't easy. As they where going in the city they ran into a mysterious figure her name was Amy and she was from the dome too told them she had escaped too but a long time before them none of them believed her so they carried on when they got to the city they felt different because it was different it wasn't like the dome for them this was way better but everybody else looked so crazy forced smiles on there faces looking like they hate everyone but they can't show it although they had gotten to the city there plan wasn't finished they where heading to the main place where everything is controlled. On there way they saw people just laying on the floor and just sitting or standing it looked like they where sick of there life being controlled once they got to the head quarters there where no guards just there leader sitting in his chair his name was William Garcia his family had all done what he had done but they all failed except for him they where all confused as why there where no guards but it was an ambush and now they are all surrounded and they are trapped with no weapons. The thing that is weird is that no one can die but yet these four citizens are about to experience death, or will they none of them know and none of them will until it actually happens

"You could say, my ambition, my goal that risks my prison free life, is idiotic. Why do I do I want to paint graffiti you could ask. it's not much that I want to paint on a wall, but for there to be a law that sends innocents to prison because they painted on a wall, is, the opposite of people being free in a safe world. 1997 and YOU CAN'T PICK UP A CAN OF PAINT WITHOUT GETTING ARRESTING! Just because I painted on this wall, doesn't mean I am a criminal.". That was the speech that Adolfo recited as his words before getting arrested and being killed by an officer for "neglecting his arrest". That was the speech that woke the citizens up. They knew that it was time for them to stop this ridiculous law. They strive to abolish the law, and they will make Adolfo's wish come true.

I lived in a town where every one led a normal life that was at least until the government made the decision to separate the town I lived in and create two separate towns with a large wall separating them. When this new town came to existence so did a few new laws. We were given so many assignments to complete in a matter of days. In addition to that we were given very exhausting tests every week. One day while waiting in line to get tested I noticed the wall door was open.This was my only chance to escape this god awful town, but I was stopped from my mother. I was determined to cross the wall and finally have some answers as to what's on the other side. The only problem was that I had no idea what might be on the other side. If I were to find something very terrible out from the other side it was my duty to tell people and help them for a miserable life they have.

odyssey follows archetype of hero because he and his men were brave to invade cyclops territory to find valuable in the caves. The evidence shows odyssey tricking cyclops about his boat/ship being destroy. The evidence clearly states the wine make monster drunk and cyclops tells odyssey he will be the last one to die however cyclops killed odyssey men and threaten to kill and eat odyssey and the other men and while cyclops was drunk he wanted more wine from odyssey.

cyclops was happy after getting a few shots of wine and cyclops fell asleep while he was asleep they had a chance to make a weapon. opponents would argue that odyssey is not a hero because he made his men in danger and got six of his men killed from cyclops and started being greedy while it may be true odyssey was being greedy and six of his men were killed or injured however when one evaluates of the evidence it becomes clear that odyssey wanted revenge on cyclops. A common argument against this position is how wine make cyclops drunk and make him fell asleep. some people argue that odyssey felt anger in his body and wanted revenge on cyclops.
