    As far as I know, Zeus isn't smashing the sun god. Rather, Helios just threatened to basically turn off the sun if Zeus didn't go punish them. And maybe someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason he didn't do it himself is because Helios actually is the sun, not the god of the sun. Whereas someone like Poseidon is the god of the sea, not actually the sea itself.

    Specifically Odysseus commanded 12 ships each with a crew of 50 men. 7 of his ship's men died to the cyclops, 550 died when their ships were sank by Poseidon (Laestyrgonians in the original Odyssey.), one died on Circe's island offscreen, so at the start of this story he was down to 42 men, then 6 died to Scylla, dropping that to 36 men.

    I didnt like Eurylochus initially.
    From wanting to raid the lotus island before they had even set foot on it, in Full Speed Ahead
    To showing signs of doubt in Luck Runs Out in his friend/captain/brother-in-law/KING at the very first sign of failure (because Odysseus is right, he took 600 men to war and not one of them died. It wasnt until they faced a literal MONSTER, while they were close to starving no less, that they lost anyone, and even then, only 7 people died)
    To wanting to just leave their comrades at Circes and run in Puppeteer.
    He irked me.
    But i gotta be honest, Mutiny changed that for me entirely.
    Yes, he opened the windbag, and thay was very much not cool. But the storm would never have been a problem in the first place if Odysseus hadnt given Polyphemus his name and let him live.
    And yeah, Eurylochus wanted to leave the men that had been cursed, and just take the ones they had left and run, but she was a witch and theyre mortals. He had nonway of knowing Hermes would come out of nowhere and decide to lend a hand and he wasn't openly sacrificing them, he just didn't think it possible to save them.
    Odysseus just openly sacrificed his men, even though Eurylochus was the only one (at least in lyrics) that actually did anything to earn Odysseus' ire. And i can 100% see why they rebelled against him after that.
    And as for the whole slaying the cow thing, my take on it isnt Eurylochus decided hunger was too great, its because he'd given up. He doesn't believe they're going to make it home. He's lost literally hundreds of friends and his friend has become a monster in his eyes, willing to sacrifice anyone including them to get hime. He's tired. He's done. And i think he knew damn well the consequences that came with killing the cow and was ready to die. I think thats why he doesn't fight back when Odysseus sacrifices them. Because while he may not WANT to die, hes too tired to keep going they way they have and hes given up.
    I cant NOT feel bad for him after everything. He too was just a man, and he had his failings like the rest of them.

    wanted to comment here: okay, so the phrase "stuck between a rock and a hard place" is pretty much from the scylla thing. its not covered in epic, but the safe path is actually a narrow strip of sea between scylla (sea monster #1) and a giant whirlpool called charybdis (sea monster #2).
    if you sail slightly closer to scylla, she takes 6 men, but if you sail slightly closer to charybdis, you are at extreme risk of losing your entire ship. thats the cost ody was talking about: risk his entire crew or 6 people. the others don't hear the siren tell ody this, bc he's the one reading her lips while the others (also with beeswax in their ears) are handling the other sirens.
    later in the song scylla, you can see ody is brooding, likely having to make the terrible choice of who to sacrifice to get them through. and then eurylochus confesses and ody decides to make eury unknowingly choose who's going to die, likely as a way to punish him. while eury keeps a torch for himself in the animatic, ody didn't ACTUALLY tell him to keep one, just pick who had the 6 torches.

    The thing is only two or three of the men were responsible for the windbag, the rest were just bystanders. And the mutiny was because Ody was just sacrificing his own men so how were they supposed to trust him after that? What if during the next obstacle, if there is one, he wanted to sacrifice more of them? He’d already proven that he’s willing to do it. (And does end up doing it.) So I still feel bad for them. They didn’t deserve to be obliterated by lightning.
    It’s actually a great example how there’s not an 100% good guy in most Greek myths. And how Ody’s hubris with the cyclops was the first domino that ended up killing his entire crew.

      Ody and the crew in the source material survived from raiding and after such a long war, unable to get home, the only way he can take care of his family and his kingdom is keeping the fame of his name alive. That's why it takes the suitors 20 years to finally run out of patience.
      Also, he got the favor of Aeolus as a workaround and they were on sight of home when a certain hypocritical someone betrayed him for pure greed. After being the one advocating against every single plan.
      Let's just raid instead of asking for food; lets not save the piggies from Cercei; let's not ask for help from Aeolus because the gods are dangerous...
      So dangerous, such a bad idea to mess with them. I'll prove it. Give me the bag, let me open it and see how everyone gets killed. Great idea, right?
      He challenges Ody in every single instance. Yeah, they didn't fight Scylla, but if they would, there would be even more dead.
      Poseidon keeps blocking any other way home with storms, they can't fish because fish live in the ocean, they don't have the numbers to keep raiding. Is going home or dying.
      Not only he rebels in mutiny. He has no plan whatsoever. He strays the ship, he chooses to yet again ignore Ody's advice, he kills Apollo's cattle and then turns to his "Captain" to come up with a plan and save then.
      When it is too late and they have to face the consequences of his actions, they expect the man they betrayed and literally backstabbed to sacrifice himself for them.
      Ody lost 14 man to the cyclops. He sacrificed 6 men. It was Eurylochus with his terrible decisions who got everyone else killed... Except for Elpenor.

    To be fair to Eury, they had essentially spirits whispering in their head that the Captain's bag WAS treasure for 9 days. The crew was losing trust, if not Eury, it would have been someone else, after all his entire ship of 50 people, and other ships, were plotting. Eury's character is used to voice the concerns and thoughts of the crew
    Eury's actions maybe could have been avoided had Odysseus actually confided in Eury. Eury was commanded not just to not openly question him, but simply to NOT question him. That was a huge moment, it was THE moment everything was doomed to fall apart. Eury stuck by Ody longer than he should have

  • @wyattae

    Odysseus was unusually cruel with the execution method of the sirens, all he had to do was behead them and let them die instantly instead of forcing them to suffer. At this point he was doing more than just trying to kill them, he wanted them to suffer. When you think about it, the sirens *need* to kill humans to eat and live, so this entire thing of: "Well they tried to kill us so we're allowed to torture them!" is not really applicable because they weren't killing for fun, they were killing out of necessity.

Im not trying to say that Ody is the worst devil of a man in the series but like you said before it's nice to know both sides.

    That's why I should stop seeing thunder saga reacts kkkkkk
    I really see the why people hates E, God he infuriated me while I was reading the Odyssey, but always that I see someone blaming him, I just think is a bit unfair (just a bit, cause come one, guy, if you think your Brother is lying about a treasure but he says that is a fucking storm, just wait until y'all are in the fucking island and then go after the fuck bag, you are family, you can just steal this damn bag in a family dinner). Because they would die anyway, Poseidon never would be like "Oh, damnit, he's in home, whatever, let him be",in my opinion, the whole island would go to Hades in the worst way... In the most positive scenario, he would do the same thing that he does in Get in the Water, giving Ody a chance to suicide, and I don't believe that my boy Ody would be able to get a chance in this scenario. Yes, E is fucking idiot, but so is Ody, but more than them, are the gods, this whole thing is up to the gods.
    I don't know how to explain my thoughts in english. What I can say is that blaming only him after the 558 deaths never will be fair to me (And , believe me, I would love beat the shit out of him). His pessimistic behavior, the crew mistrust, Ody's pride, all shit of the gods, all of that has the exactly same weight to me (the gods shit is a exception, this is way more heavy)
    And the cow thing... As someone who has been in starvation before and who has tried suicide before, I could never blame him, cause that's what he is in that moment. Everyone died, his friendship go to hell for both mistakes, he has no hope, he has been in a exhaust journey with death for all sides, and he's starving for weeks... He knows he would die, he's not that dumb, but die fast with a full belly is so much better than a slow death by hungry.
    I don't know how to make my thoughts clear, I'm sorry. I don't want dismiss anyone's point of view of the situation, after all it's art and art is open to interpretation, I just want to say what I feel when I see the blame bomb in this saga
