The first destination for Odysseus is with Calypso, a beautiful sea nymph who held him captive for years while also seducing him. Athena eventually stepped in and Calypso had to let him go; she even helped him build a boat for the rest of his journey.

"Come, put your skill to use. Take up tools, fell some tall trees for timber, and build yourself a sturdy raft, strong enough to withstand the ocean waves. I'll give you stores of food and drink and tell you how to reach your home. The rest will happen as the gods will it." (Hinds 50)

Next, Odysseus takes on Cyclops, the one eyed monster who traps the crew in a cave and devours them one by one. Odysseus, a clever man, gets Cyclops drunk and then stabs him in the eye and escapes. He tells Cyclops that his name is Nobody so that he wouldn't be caught when Cyclops cried out to his men for help.

"Old friend, why are you last of all? You always lead the way. Is it because you grieve for my eye, put out by that accursed Nobody after he got me drunk? Oh, if only you had the power of speech and could tell me where he's hiding, I'd smash his brains out!" (Hinds 107)

After talk about Odysseus being home and recognized only by a scar on his foot, Penelope says she will marry the suitor who can string and shoot an arrow through 12 axes (something only Odysseus can do). After each suitor fails, Odysseus does it with ease. After that, he deliberately shoots another arrow into a suitors neck and reveals himself. A full battle enrages until Odysseus reigns.

"You curs! You thought you'd get away with your rapacious ways, consuming my goods, seducing my maids, and courting my wife while I was away at Troy. You thought your king would never come back alive. Now black death will take you all." (Hinds 213)

Penelope is a loyal wife to Odysseus who clings to the thought of Odysseus being alive, even though there are suitors ravaging her home and pressuring her to marry.

"When my father didn't return from the war, these lords of Ithaca and the islands round about came here, seeking to marry my mother, so famed for her wisdom and beauty. She refuses them, but they will not leave." (Hinds 9)
