“We’re All In This Together”, Says The Pequod Crew As Starbuck Is About To Shoot Captain Ahab

Hi, hello, allow me to casually rip your heart out

In We’ll Be Fine, the beginning piano hits are taken from My Goodbeye. Go give it a listen

:’)

Not Odysseus’ “Maybe you can learn to forgive” line being in the same melody as “ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves”.

Ya know, I’m curious how Jorge will address Odysseus leaving Calypso’s island. In The Odyssey it’s super simple; Zeus and Hermes pull up to Ogiga (I can’t spell) and basically just proclaims “man’s gotta get home” and then Calypso is forced to help Odysseus construct a raft.

But this is Epic: The Musical. This is Mr. Jorge Riverra Herrans we are talking about. There are so many instances in which Jorge has cranked the dial up from 1-20, making simple instances in The Odyssey more dramatic than they used to be. One of these instances is God Games.

I predict one of two things that could occur for Odysseus’ escape from Calypso’s island.

1. Hermes helps Odysseus use his wits as well as some form of violence like in Suffering/Different beast where he finds out wether or not goddesses can die

2. Hermes helps Odysseus escape Calypso’s island solid snake style on some sort of very long stealth mission. Idk how he quietly made a raft, who knows.

Either way we will see what happens. See you mates on the 30th :)

Everytime I wish to put further emphasis on Odysseus, I make it my business to list every title and epithet Homer has given this man.

So I’ll be having a normal conversation and then I’ll drop “That tactful and guileful man, rugged, chestnut haired, broad shouldered, lying, gentle,royal Odysseus, son of Laertes, husband of Penelope, father of Telemachus, sacker of cities, sacker of Troy, King of Ithaka”.

I then realize I was so busy remembering every epithet that I no longer remember where the conversation was going.

YES LETS BRING MORE ATTENTION TO THIS STUFF! ILIAD! ILIA THE MUSICAL LETS GIVE THIS MAN SOME IDEAS (if he wants to focus on Epic though that’s ok)

*slips Jorge 20 bucks*

So how do you feel about the Illiad?

Hey anyone notice how Charybdis kinda sounds like a whale?

Happy Jesus Resurrection day for those who celebrate.

God loves you all, no matter what.

I was right :)

Not Odysseus’ “Maybe you can learn to forgive” line being in the same melody as “ruthlessness is mercy upon ourselves”.

I can only really listen to the first three Ithaca songs in full because the last two absolutely shattered every fiber of my being.

It has happened. My first rough sketch of Odysseus.

I fully intend on using him as a study for drawing, so I can learn how to draw better in general and draw him better as well. As a reference I used a few doodles of WolfytheWitch’s Odysseus, so credits to her since this is her iteration of Odysseus.
