Oh no!! Poseidon has found out that blinded Odysseus!! We could have a rough journey home!!

The great escape!!!

I feel so happy that my men and me managed to escape from the gloomy, dull cave, home of the cyclops. I feel a sense of pride that I thought of the cunning idea to get us out of this mess!! I finally understand why everyone calls me Odysseus the Cunning!! What I am looking forward to most is seeing my son and wife who mean the world to me, I feel slighly apprehensive about meeting my loved ones again but I know that it will be great for me to get back to normalisation!! See you soon , Odysseus xxxxxxxxxxxx <3

Athene :'-)

Hello, I am Athena, the goddess of WAR and WISDOM. The symbol that represents me is an owl, owl's are very wise creatures.  I am the daughter of Metis and Zeus, my mother was Zeus' first wife, she was goddess of wisdom. My uncle Poseidon and I were fond of a certain city in Greece, I named this city Athens after my own name.  My companion is the goddess of victory, Nike.  I am protector of the great and mighty warrior, Odysseus. It's always good to have me on you're side if you are a warrior, I can bring you luck and good fortune! Remember this, I am always watching over the Earth and you never know, I could help you in a time of trouble!!xxxx<3

The cave of the CYCLOPS!!!



Please help! Me and my men walked in to the darkest part of a cave, and in the entrance we saw the shape of a man, not just any man, a monster, he was as tall as a tree. We studied his face as he came into the light, the first thing I noticed was his big eye bright and shiny, stuck on the middle of his head. I immediatly felt scared and shaky because I knew he couldn't be good news for me and my men. We watched him carefully, making no sound, with his strong arms, he moved a giant boulder and put it in the way of the entrance, we were trapped. I knew I would have to think of a cunning plan to escape from the cave but only the cyclops could lift this boulder. I began to think, I wouldn't be able to see my son for another few years and I missed him so much, I longed to see him as a grown boy!
