Hello friends! For this month's early access video, I wanted to show you guys the beginning of The Circe Saga!

SPOILER ALERT FOR OCEAN SAGA!!! SPOILER ALERT FOR OCEAN SAGA!!! IF YOU DON'T WANT SPOILERS, DON'T READ THE REST OF THIS POST! <3

The previous saga, The Ocean Saga, ends with Odysseus narrowly escaping Poseidon as Poseidon destroys 11 of Odysseus's ships, meaning only Odysseus's ship is left.

Odysseus and his remaining crew land on Circe's island. The Circe Saga begins with an interaction between Odysseus and Eurylochus. What I love about this scene is that there are two layers to this. The first layer is the mystery of Eurylochus's confession, which is not revealed until later in the show. The second layer is about Odysseus's intentions in this scene.

I'd like to do a little experiment with you all.

1) Watch this scene for the first time: what do you think is going through Odysseus's head in this scene? What do you think Eurylochus's confession is?

2) Now I'd like to add more context: Odysseus has not yet embraced ruthlessness at this point of the show. Watch the scene again and keep this in mind. Are there any other inferences you could make about Odysseus's intentions in this scene? Let me know in the comments. :)

1) I think Odysseus may already suspect what E wants to say, or is either too overwhelmed to hear more bad news. I think E is feeling guilty about something he did that betrayed Oddy in some way. 2) Oddy looks more tired and numb than anything, but based on the context of your question it seems Oddy is in deep thought, plotting something.

I think Eurylochus wants to confess that he opened the bag. I think Ody feels that he can not completely trust him and he misses Polites bc he could trust him.
