We’ve landed on another island today and it looked quite empty. A few of Odysseus men got off the ship to see if there were any interesting creatures that they’ll find, but instead the found a flower, a lotus flower. We were waiting for the men to return to hear good news. The mean returned, but not with news that we wanted to hear. They ate the flower!
After the few men ate the flower they were suffering from not remembering their homeland. I wonder if Odysseus thinks that I could help them remember. I hope not. Instead of them wanting to go back to Ithaca to their family they wanted to stay on the island.
