What will a man do to return to his home? For ten years, Odysseus longed for his home of Ithaca and the wife he loved more than life. Individuals were murdered, children died, and everyone he met encountered his deceit. Even his friends died in his quest. He did things he knew would trouble his very soul. But he justified it by his longing to be with his Penelope.It was he who ended the war. Every male, from the aged King Priam, to Hector's infant son, Astyanax, died in the sack of Troy. Only a few women escaped the destruction to become slaves. This because of Odysseus's desire to get home."What crime have I committed?" He cried into the winds that would destroy him."Your crime is pride," the enslaved queen of the Trojans proclaimed. "You have the belief that you are above the gods and answer to no one. Pride in your own abilities has blinded your recognition of god's grace and this vanity of yours will be your downfall. The gods will not let you go unpunished for this."What followed was a decade of adventure, but adventure that cost the life of every man he brought out of Troy. Finally, stranded on a barren island far into the distant ocean, he comes to terms with his crimes and finds redemption.
