Well Demigods are half mortal half god. As a half nymph half god, it makes her a minor goddess. There's a difference in the Greek pantheon of gods between Major gods and Minor gods. Essentially, Major gods sit on the council of Olympus and are mostly children or grandchildren of Kronos (except Aphrodite who is Kronos' half sister). Minor gods have more minor and specific roles compared to Major gods and goddesses.

The fact that he says he must confess something... It hints to me that he was the one who opened the bag, or at least one of them... He wants to lift a weight from his shoulders and Odysseus sends him away because he suspects it, but does not want to hear it confirmed. If Eurylicus had said "no", no one in the crew would have opened that bag. In the best-case scenario, he saw what they were doing and didn't bother intervening.

I'm pretty sure that the confession Eurylochus was trying to make at the beginning was regarding the bag that was opened. Immediately prior to its opening, Eurylochus was on his ship "spreading seeds of doubt" and he wasn't there to help keep the bag closed. Odysseus was awake for NINE DAYS trying to keep it from being opened!

Just keep in mind, it could be used for something else on the future 2) In the scene in which Odysseus is ignoring Eurylichus, if you listen REALLY closely, you can hear the melody of Luck runs out in some kind of music box

I never notice that before, but during the reaction I notice a pattern that seem familiar from another song, and the last few notes of the piano, before the "Okay" of Eurylychus, it remind me of that melody. "You rely on wit, and people die on it. Whoa" that's what I think it was

I can't dislike Odysseus a single bit. It is not surprising at all that he insists on saving as many lives of his men as he possibly could regarding what happened before he even left for the trojan war in the first place. He might wanted to prevent the worst.. for we know, humans always try to fight what has long been established even against better knowledge. I don't really tell a significant thing but there's general knowledge from greek mythology ahead, so here is a slight spoiler warning or something, folks! Odysseus didn't want to leave his family for war because a prophet told him a few things, like how long it would take him to return, things he would lose on his way back and how all of this journey would affect himself.
@Borsecann

It really does irk me how much people pile up on Odysseus for a lot of the wrong things in my opinion. He isn't perfect and that's kind of the whole point. And purely from the perspective of the Epic musical, everything I've seen of him, to me just scream "human" or as they say "just a man". The people who don't like him are generally those who can't put themselves in the shoes of the character and take advantage of the "hindsight is 20-20" saying. Purely talking about this musical. He is a witty kid who grows up trained by Athena and becomes a King. He goes to a decade long war, wins and keeps all his men alive. If that doesn't make a person be at least somewhat cocky and arrogant then I don't know what will. And I am not even going to go into the emotions of coming down from that war-high, wanting to see your wife and child, seeing your best friend killed, etc. ; Only to have your God berate and abandon you right after and your right-hand man all of a sudden question your competency. The entire thing is about everyone throwing all responsibility on him and he should somehow be like a robot, perfect cold and calculated, whereas he is "just a man" that is trying to make the best of bad situations he isn't used to handling since he is used to outsmarting and winning. To conclude, purely from my perspective, Odysseus is a flawed man that is crushed by external factors. And while he is not blameless, most of the blame is on the fucked-up world they are in and the others around him.

7:34 when i hear the first few notes of this song I _always_ think of the lyrics "Polites, gear up. You and I'll go ahead. We should try to find a way no one ends up dead" (just like, in minor key or whatever) And tbh i feel like "Puppeteer" & "Luck Runs Out" are the two songs that make make Polites' absence the most _glaring_ Like, the way Polites' song was all about how he noticed Odysseus' stress/guilt And you can HEAR the heaviness in Odysseus voice + he outright says "I can hardly sleep now" but no one asks how he's doing, he's left to flounder alone Eurylochus tries to confess something thats eating _him_ but he doesnt reach out to ask how _Odysseus_ is doing The way Ody says "_We_ have to go save them" But he ends up going _alone_ Vs "Full Speed Ahead" where the person he calls on is Polites & he _cheerfully_ accompanies Odysseus He still has 43 men, he still has his _second in command_ but he's soooo alone now

Luke Holt (Zeus) did part of a song from Act Two, so I'd suggest probably not watching that one, even though I personally can't figure out the context of the song.

She could very much turn them into any other creature or horrific beings if she really wanted to and she clearly has the power to do that but instead she made the specific choice of turning them to pigs.

I realized a small add-on to the chess metaphor. "No I'm not a player, I'm a puppeteer" could be Circe saying "We are not chess players, because I have way more power and control than you could ever compete with." She believes that no one could stand against her because they aren't even on her level at all. It also gets ironic when Odysseus takes the Molly flower and gains enough power to be Circe's equal

One thing I love in this song is the parallels between Circe & Odysseus storywise & the parallels between Circe & Penelope musically. Circe & Odysseus are both leaders haunted by their past mistakes & their people who got hurt because of it. Circe & Penelope both have similar sounding instrumental motifs (the only classical string instrument aside from Polypehmus iirc). Both of them are incedibly intelligent & powerful women. (You'll see that in later sagas, but Penelope is incredibly clever. It's why Odysseus wanted to marry her.) Given how There Are Other Ways starts, there's also some interesting parallels there too.

The fact that Circe brought out a pig for the men to eat and they were all turned into pigs, did she feed them transformed men?

Something that I just noticed! You mentioned the piano still being there. So I started to pay more attention. When Odysseus is shutting Urilicus down, the piano played a motif to Luck Runs Out!!

What did Eurochus want to confess… I can’t help but think that maybe Eurylochus helped open the bag. 🤔 Or maybe he saw it happening and didn’t stop it. That would really tear him up with guilt.

Fun fact: Polites (who is still alive in the Odyssey at this point) is the one that leads the crew into Circe's lair. He also does a thing later... and this is also like the only place in the original poem he's brought up. But we do *know* he's Ody's best friend, and possibly his oldest. Ummm Eury sry to break it to you but: Circe *is* a god. A 'minor' one but still. Oh hey... you asked about that. Yeah she's a goddess, usually the daughter of Helios. She's also kind of become the 'original' femme fatale but that's just how people started choosing to depict her later. Oh and Talya, not Tanya. Although I bet by now you guys know that...

In the strings playing under Eurylochus’s and Odysseus’s dialogue at the beginning, there is the slowed lead up to the danger motif and after they finish the highs of the danger motif play quicker right before the glissando.

one of my favorite parts of this song is when the harps come in while Odysseus and Eurylochus are talking and you see Hermes's shoes in the corner of the shot. 22:54 i think is the timestamp. it's such a clever way for Jorge to musically convey that Hermes was eavesdropping on the whole thing before he comes in with "Wouldnt You Like"

So i've been binging your reactions, and now this group reaction since yesterday and i gotta point this out. Possible spoilers, if you havent heard/watched the rest of the videos Early on, in one of the earlier videos [ I think it was when you reacted to Polyphemus ] You brought up how the animation had Odesseus push back Polites and Eurylocus In wanting to protect them, and keep them away from Polyphemus Now listening through this video, you also said he was pushing away Eurylocus And I find that those little statements along with later songs Shows the decline in Odesseus' mental stability, and shows his slow transformation into the monster he later becomes Odesseus who used to push his friends out of the way of threats, is now pushing them away from himself. The threat he's becomming. and even though i might be overanalyzing based off your reactions, I found it fun to piece together. :)

Spoiler abt a Telemachus song - - - - - - - - - Fun fact about the beginning lyre sound. That's also the tune of Telemachus' song where he sings "cause I'm stuck with your stories. But no clue who you are. And no idea if you're dead or just too far." Whoch is the same tune as full Speed Ahead when odysseus is trying to get bsck to his son and wife.

at 5:37 when you both said "it´s full speed ahead" i always hear the line "let´s try to find a way no one ends up dead" right before "open arms" or is that just me? from 5:32 to 5:37

Considering the theory that Athena is still watching over them or is speaking through Eurylochus, I'm half wondering if the thing that Eurylochus was going to tell Odysseus at the start of the song is about how Athena had come to him after what happened with the cyclops. Food for thought maybe?

interesting. i had a similar experience to Mortius did when they moved to the Circe sage when i moved to the Underworld Saga. the Circe saga was very much my jam, then we had the first song of underworld and i think it was such a departure from There are other ways that i didnt grok it on first listen. but then i hit up the animations and holy sweet Hades i love that whole saga now! i love it when people have similar experiences with big distinctions like that.

Oh ya and hermes instrument is harps and plucked synth arpeggios and Idk if you can hear the arps but for a second you can hear what I think is Hermes’s moteif. And I believe when men showed up last time on circes Island they killed her nypths (please don’t mind my spelling) and she is their queen but she says they are like her daughters and that no matter what she would protect them in a later song and the part of full speed ahead that plays in the beginning of puppeteer is “and if we don’t return that 600 men can make this whole place burn” which in my humble opinion means that Odysseus is feeling that I no longer have 600 men as he is looking out seeing the remaining men and his broken ship. And also it may be a longing to go home because in full speed ahead they were heading home. I know that was a lot to read but I had a lot to say

Something I think goes a bit unnoticed in this song is how it shows Eurylochus' development. He's still a voice of reason and has a militant mindset but he's changed some. If you think back to Full Speed Ahead, he says "600 men, 600 reasons to take what we can;" each individual person that was in their fleet was someone worth fighting for to Eurylochus. In this song, his role stays the same but shifts views, as he says to leave behind the men turned into pigs, they're no longer worth fighting for in his eyes. After losing so much Eurylochus just wants to get back home even if he has to lose a few more along the way. "Think about the men we have left before they're none, let's just cut our losses, you and I, and let's run." It's kind of hypocritical and contradictory but it's by design (think Ironwood wanting to risk it all to save Atlas even though it results in him then trying to bomb Mantle and thusly kill most of the people he's supposed to save and do some of Salem's job for her).
