Reading the odyssey kinda sucks (as in I love him. It makes me sad) sometimes because (after a point) he just wanted to go home.
He was trapped on Calypso’s island for 7 years. He sobbed on the beach every day! He just wanted to go home. He rejected immortality to return to his family. He just wanted to go home and I understand him.
