    Jorge’s imagining of sirens is that when someone hears their song, they can tap into the person’s memories and thoughts. But since Odysseus’ hearing is blocked by the beeswax, she got information incorrect, such as him having a daughter instead of a son.

      With a cold head, things probably wouldn't have resulted in a mutiny since they would likely understand their options are. Lives of 43 men or only 6. The Crew might not want to choose or die, but some do have to comply eventually. Probably those who don't have a family would have to die, but the ending result of Scylla wouldn't have resorted to Mutiny, Thunder Bringer or Odysseus being trapped in the island for 7 years or the death of the other 36 men.

    The most fucked up thing about Scylla is that Ody was the only one who knew. Cuz he was the only one who "heard" the siren say anything about her.
    One of Ody's big character flaws is that he has poor communication skills when it counts. He gives orders and doesn't elaborate until it's too late and everything has already blown up in his face. We see it here in Mutiny, and we see it in Keep Your Friends Close. It was Ody's failure to communicate what the deal with the bag was that lead to it being opened, and arguably his failure to inform the crew or at least Eury of Scylla that led to things blowing up in their faces.
    Eury has proven himself more than willing to sacrifice men before at Circe's island. He was adamant, even. That blatant lack of trust from Ody to tell him these important things has only led to more and more guilt on Eury's conscience, until he couldn't take it and made a stupid mistake like killing the cow.

      @colt1903 Місяць тому

      @@sofialu226 Yeah, but from what we can tell, he only told two men that. Not Eury, and not the full 600. We only know for sure that he told the 2 who spoke to him when he first came down. Even then, he said they can't allow the treasure rumor to fly. Which more or less just means "shut up don't talk about it" or something along those lines.
      The point is, he should have been more direct and clear. He wasn't. Just because the bag has the storm inside doesn't mean opening it will bring back the storm. It's a safe assumption to make, but there's no guarantee that's the case other than his word.
      For all they know, "the storm is trapped inside" and "it's treasure" can go hand in hand. The storm, in the bag, is being turned or has been turned into treasure. In both those interpretations, the storm is a non issue. Therefore, it'd be fine to open.
      Even then, even if they assume that Ody is telling the truth, and even if they assume the storm will come back, they have no reason to know or assume that opening it would have such disastrous effects such as LITERALLY tossing their ENTIRE FLEET through the air WHO KNOWS HOW FAR from home.
      Not to mention, Eury is the one who opened the bag, and it's safe to assume he knew NOTHING. Meaning that Ody told him nothing.
      Again, lack of trust and failure to communicate. They damned them to a longer journey, and they damned Ody to mutiny and the tragic loss of all the rest of his crew.

      @@colt1903 The Chorus/Echo after "Don't let the rumor Fly" was of more than two men.
      I'm pretty sure he told at least to most, and even if Eurylichus wasn't one (which would be weird, he is the second in command and Oddyseus best friend, it would be weird not telling him to ask for his help controling the crew), he should have ask Oddyseus what was it. But even if he asked and Oddyseus didn't respond. Why did Oddyseus, second in command took the bag from his sleeping king and captain??
      I still think most did hear Oddyseus, so the thing is, none of them who heard stand for two seconds and realize how they had this crazy storm for days stopping them from advancing until Oddyseus got to talk to the wind God and casually the storm desapeared right after, and their Captain and King told them "The storm is in the Bag, Don't Open it, is Dangerous, don't let the tressure rumor fly", and how they had 9 of the most calm and perfect weather getting closer and closer to home??
      And EVEN with the rumor, Eurylichus, second in command, didn't control the crew and was actually the one who opened it desobeying their King and Captain's orders? They were so close to home, yet they chose to Sneak to their sleeping Leader and Open the Bag instead of maybe waiting to reach home to ask again about it or something

The biggest evidence of this is ancient humans. We werent as strong as bears or lions, not as fast as cheetas, not as small as insects or rabbits, not as lethal as snakes, and our fragile bodies were a target for diseases. The only reason we were able to survive was the ability to have no remorse when it came to actions. In fact humans became more like animals because animals were extremely territorial. The reason we are so strong is because we are weak. While lions sharpened their claws, we sharpened our minds, as it was the only weapon we had. And now we are the true apex predator.

    In the official annimatic (when jorge releases the sagas he does a live stream and commissions small animatics so not the whole song just bits. ) Odysseus tell euri to lught six torches. Meaning that euri will be holding them. In the animatic he realises that men are being sacrificed but not how, gives his torch to some crew member to help others. By number 5 the torch beong the target clicks he runs back to save the man he gave his torch to. Only to watch that man get taken.

    That, or it was starvation, which makes the whole killing the cow thing make more sense, even if it is in a "if we're gonna die regardless, I'd choose to die from not starvation" type way. Which was more or less the way it was portrayed in the OG, but still.

      1. The reason Odysseus has all the rights to decide is because although you are right that greece liked democracy, they also liked a military-like hierarchy for soldiers meaning loyalty and obedience to people who outrank you. In this context they are SOLDIERS not citizens of a nation so its more than fair to say that it is more relevant than democracy.
      2. They also had no reason to doubt ody as before the cyclops NONE of them died.
      3. He also has more information than them regarding the wind bag. Are the crew so stupid that theyd believe the winions rather than their own captain? if so how would you go about justifying that?
      4. Ody is "prideful?" What a shallow characterization. He is cunning and deceptive. The closest thing ody said to prideful is at the end of "my goodbye" and even then it was to honor his dead comrades and teaching the cyclops a lesson so to call it prideful is insane since it wasnt even entirely selfish.
      5. "He clearly treated that bag like it was treasure" How was it supposed to treat it? just let it sit on a table? or have a friendly discussion on whether or not he should let his comrades open the bag when the evidence leans towards on it being a bad idea?
      6. Its only tyranny when the result only benefits the person in question and exploitative of the lesser members. What was so tyranical about keeping the crew safe? To remind you the nature of the crews actions were greed and curiosity while ody's was security.

      i think you're forgetting these characters are extremely human... it's pretty obvious to me eurylochus didn't *really* think odysseus was gonna choose them cause caring about penelope more than his men was literally his reason for going ahead with the mutiny in the first place. but of course it's still gonna hurt if your friend (and possibly brother-in-law) agrees to have you killed, no matter the circumstances. by the time eurylochus killed the cow they were starving, exhausted and had already accepted they were never gonna make it back home so they saw a god's punishment as a better death than anything else, though obviously when they're faced with the consequences they realize they don't actually want to die. that's why they attack him and why they plead their case at all.
      eurylochus does take all the blame in a sense by dying with the crew for his mistakes. i think the problem here is that you were expecting him to just go down quietly while apologizing for his mistakes which would never happen.
      also it doesn't matter if scylla was a necessity, if you look at it from the crews' point of view you'll realize why it's an unbearable situation for them. odysseus will sacrifice any of them for his goal, men who also have families and homes to get back to, so they just can't trust their captain anymore. in eurylochus' case, odysseus literally intended to have him killed right there. it's very understandable if you put yourself in their shoes for like five minutes. the whole point of this conflict and what makes it so compelling is that both sides have their reasons for acting the ways they do and you can understand them while recognizing where they mess up.

    Also, what he could have done, is had every man hold a torch. 6 would die, but it would be truly random and agreed upon. Odysseus no longer views his men as people, they are resources to spend to get what he wants above all else, i.e. his -and only his- good ending

      No, he couldn't have done that as then there would be no one to row the ship out of Scylla's domain. As it was probably the biggest ship of the fleet, it would have been build for 50 men to row. As they were already 'understaffed' there is no way they could just give everyone or even the majority torches as they would then be sitting ducks for Scylla to eat one after the other. The reason why Scylla would only ask for six men is because she can't eat more than that at the same time due to her limited number of heads. However, if the ship waited for her by having everyone hold a torch as suggested she would have eaten more.

    "Portrayals of betrayals" can actually refer to both Odysseus & Eurylochus.
    Eury betrayed Odysseus by opening the windbag. Odysseus betrayed his men by keeping the information about Scylla from them!
    There's always a choice, they could try their luck somewhere else, they could accept they're never getting home & settle on some other island.
    They could choose to die fighting.
    Odysseus _took their choice_ by refusing to tell them about Scylla. He _chose_ to murder 6 men.
    Eurylochus did not know opening the windbag would lead them to Poseidon.
    Odysseus _DID_ know 6 men would get eaten
    Also, quick correction, Polites was Odysseus' best friend!

    Also Jorge has confirmed some of the chorus’ lyrics in the background of No Longer You -> “Siren’s song, Scylla throat, Mutiny, Lightning Bolt”
    We don’t know for sure what they remaining lines are but people have their own theories on that which are a bit spoilery, so I won’t say them.

    "Siren song"
    "Scylla throat"
    "Mutiny"
    "Lightning bolt"
    Whirlpool, Poseidon"
    "Kill all the suitors for love"
    The first four chants are confirmed by Jorge that's what they say the last two or what I believe that they're saying because of the fact that on a different animatic the captions are the actual lyrics verified from the actual song so it's probably safe to say that that's actually what they say

    While I don't completely disagree with you, I feel like where the argument fails is that Odysseus made that decision himself, alone. He decided that 6 lives were to be given. Random, yes. But he was never considered in that pool. While it would've been somewhat unlikely, if Odysseus had let them in on the situation, there may have been 6 or more soldiers that would have volunteered their lives so their friends could go on. And also, Odysseus could have prepared a better plan. In the original, or at least the version I can remember, Odysseus grabbed 6 goats (maybe more) to occupy Scylla while they sail through her lair. The plan didn't work flawlessly, some men were still grabbed, but it wasn't Odysseus' plan to sacrifice his own men.

A General would never sacrifice himself for a Platoon of soldiers. We shouldn't expect a King to do so for 42 men. Morally you are right, Ody should not have made this decision without talking to his soldiers. But we are at a point in the journey where Odysseous, (King of Ithika) is willing to sacrifice 6 to save 36. From our standpoint of reacting to the story and not being a part of in during those stressful days we have time and a calm mentality to come up with different plans to save everyone. Time and more importantly, HOPE that Odysseous just didn't have. 😔

He's going to do whatever it takes to get back to his wife. Not saying I don't understand where Odysseus is coming from, and that it wasn't still a difficult choice for him to make, but he's operating differently now than he would have earlier on in his journey. And again, he could have prepared before going to Scylla rather than go straight to her lair. But he wants to get back to his wife as quickly as possible now. And yeah, Eurylochus made same very huge mistakes that has put them in danger, but so has Odysseus. Not so much in letting the Cyclops live, but in giving his name out of rage and pettiness. That led Posiedon to go after Odysseus and his crew. If he hadn't done that, they never would've dealt with the treacherous storm and the wind god, and then the killing of the vast majority of his crew. Both share an immense amount of blame.

    Right I had the same face when I heard that from his second in command and the audacity and how hypocritical it is when the next song comes up because technically he's the reason why 558 men were killed because they were so close to their home to the point where Odysseus's mother saw them get blown away by the storm yes the reason why Poseidon had them even in his radar was because of Odysseus was arrogant and had too much pride and wanted the Cyclops to know that he was the one that blinded him and it also has a little hint of Revenge in it as well he didn't want the Cyclops to not know who blinded him because the Cyclops killed his best friend so the arrogance and pride and the hint of Revenge made him to make the stupid decision to give him his name and in the grand scheme of things the second in command is considerably the most assault they were about to be on land and I don't think Poseidon can technically stand on the land he has to stay in the ocean but I'm not sure about him not being able to go on land that's just my assumption because he didn't follow him when they open the window bag which is why he didn't chase after them when they open the wind bag but for a second in command to be upset they had to sacrifice six men is ridiculous because what was his other option go into open water and fall right into Poseidon's hands The Logical choice is to pick the way Odysseus chose to go to have more of a chance on being able to get home cuz that's the only way home and then they all would be dead. Also the second in command, I'm not even going to try to stop his name that's why I'm calling him that, is actually considered family by marriage, he is married to a Odysseus sister according to Homer version of The Odyssey that's also a reason why he didn't go into Circe's palace and wasnt tempted by a beautiful woman. So the second command is is a complete hypocrite and the most horrible part is Odysseus has been blaming himself and saying that he was the reason and at fault to why they were all killed Poseidon and he had so much guilt to now find out that it wasn't actually really his fault to an extent, yes it was still his fault to an extent but most of the fault was the other guy fault that's so crazy and that the fact that they have been friends since childhood to me makes what he did the biggest betrayal I think I would ever feel if that was me in that situation

      The difference between Odysseus & Eurylochus is that Eurylochus never meant for anyone to die + he didn't kill anyone, _Poseidon_ did
      Meanwhile, Odysseus DID mean for 6 men to die, he put _spotlights_ on them to lure Scylla's heads directly to them.
      Besides, they don't _have_ to go home. The men could simply choose to give up & live in some other kingdom/island
      But Odysseus can't have that. He can't row the boat by himself. He _needs_ his men
