20 years...
Odysseus was out at sea for 20 years before reaching new ithaca...
Now he has to go for one more..
Odysseus- telemacus go home to your mother and say I have to go once more, Hermes please get me a group of people to fight tell them to meet in Trident square when the clock strikes twelve...
*Later that night*
A bell rings in the clocktower and Odysseus's crew appear
Odysseus- hello my friends.. we must depart once more...
Hector- hello ody... I think I see a fire but there's no smoke... It's off towards the mountain
Crew- (sounds of confusion)
Odysseus- ah! It's the winions old friends of mine very friendly little creatures, they told us where to get food before we met polyphemus!
Crew- you sure about this captain?
Yeah I'm not sure if this is a good idea.
Same..
Odysseus- listen men we have to do this or Ithaca could fall...
Later that night they leave the yellow cobbles streets of ithaca and into the damp dark thicket trees go up so high they brush the clouds the sharp purple leaves dancing with the breeze, small yellow eyes peek around every corner...
Hector- sir it's there...
They look up to see a towering lotus tree and the winions greet them with open arms... Much like an old friend
