He usually has a cape or cloak whenever he’s on his ship and his second in command, Eurylochus is a trusted ally. But he is greiving especially after the encounter with Poseidon who killed 543 of his men, leaving only 43 left. He is also greiving over the loss of his best friend Polites who died to a past cyclops he encountered, Polyphemus.

Currently he had been praying in private, for a long time. The more time that passed without anything the more his crew had their doubts. Odysseus’s hopes were thin but stubborn. He kept on praying. Until. His surroundings changed. He wasn’t on the ship anymore. He was in another realm rather. On a magic platform, the air around him seem to sparkle like space.
