If you listen to the lyrics in Scylla, it also basically confirms her history with Circe too. Every single line she sings has a double meaning applying to both Odysseus and herself, revealing her backstory. In the beginning of the song, she sings about feelings of shame, being betrayed and losing bonds, like when Circe betrayed her and turned her into a monster, tearing her away from her old life. And the chorus is about her own transformation in the bathing pool: "Drown in your sorrows and fears / Choke on your blood and your tears / Bleed til you've run out of years ... Give up your honor and faith / Live up your life as a wraith / Die in the blood where you bathe". I love the song and how it paints Odysseus and Scylla as similar because they both were unwillingly turned into monsters but willingly embraced their newfound natures in order to "do what it takes to survive".

Jorge made a video about Suffering. He said in his mind when he was coming up with what exactly the sirens powers were, he decided the sirens can look into your memories to use stuff to lure you in, but they don’t gain full access into your memories until their music reaches your ears, and since he had his ears plugged she didn’t get his full memories. So the siren was able to tell he had a child but didn’t know if it was a boy or girl. Another cool thing with this is that if you notice the “he will chase you high and low” and so on is the same melody used in the horse and the infant which Zeus sings. The siren senses this melody and thinks it’s Poseidon who used it when it was actually Zeus. The last thing he mentioned was that Penelope’s instrument is a viola and it’s not used anywhere in this song. Instead mallet type instruments were used. Those are Polites instruments. The Siren used the mallets because she could sense they belonged to someone important to Odysseus, thinking it was his wife, but it was really his best friend. I love the depth and detail Jorge uses! Its so cool!

1) Posiedon isnt necessarily scared of Scylla, but the monster near Scylla was turned into a monster due to a conflict between him and Zues. Probably a lot of guilt and reluctance to see her. 2)Troy was in Modern day Turkey, getting there from Greece by foot is not impossible, but nearly so, especially with an army. Not to mention the political issues with marching said army across several empires and countries.

@ezracohen60203 ай бұрын
It’s not my favorite, but I think it does exactly what it sets out to do amazingly, it explains the confusion of suffering (I figured sirens pretty quickly, but if you don’t figure that out different beast is really necessary for that), and it shows how Odysseus has become the monster (rawr rawr rawr), and the way they show it with the sirens is really cool because his decision is ultimately right to kill the sirens, but the way it is made and the way he kills them shows him being a monster, and then as we go on through the saga we get him making choices that are harder and harder to justify, killing the Sirens who absolutely would not spare him or any other sailor, yeah I can get behind that, an active sacrifice of six of the crew members so that the rest can all survive, harder to justify but sensible if looked at the right way, sacrificing the entire crew so he can get home is almost entirely unjustifiable from an outside position but from the perspective of him being a monster, the choice makes sense

The part when the siren sings: "He will chase you down and low" reminds me to the same melody of the song "The horse and the infant" when Zeus sings "The gods will make him know, this is the will of the gods". I don't know, I just find that interesting.

13:27 Well Ithica is an island so you can't avoid water entirely. the BEST you could do would be going from Kyllini and then across to Skala on Kefalonia then up to around Tselendata to take a VERY quite trip over to the island of Ithica. Kep in mind that all the traveling TO troy was done by boat so they wouldn't have the things needed to travel across land easily

Answering your questions: 1 - Ithaca, Odisseus' home is an Island (that is mentioned quickly before in the musical) so you can't just ride or walk there. 2 - About fishing: I know that's not common knowledge today but in antiquity people would know... Yes, you can an often do fish during your travel to resupply with food but you can't just live out of fish. In a years long you'd need vitamins and nutrients that you can't get from fish. You need fruit, vegetables, meat. Entire crews of sailors would die at sea from sickness when they started to run out on it. It was one of the gratest dangers during the exploration of the Atlantic. So, yeah, supplies doesn't mean just food... Well, mostly it does, but you need different kinds of food.

So they cannot walk home as you suggested. Ithaca, Odysseus’ kingdom, is an island. So while he could theoretically make some of the journey on the mainland, he’d still have to go through the sea to make it home

Fun facts: around this time Odysseus actually has been away for about 12 years. He stays on Circe’s island for a year either before the underworld saga or before this saga. Scylla is said in some stories to be Poseidon’s ex turned into a monster by Poseidon’s wife

I think it should be noted that Odysseus didn’t exactly sign up to be a captain in the navy. He is the king of Ithica, an island nation. As such you could imagine its military is rather… naval. In addition, the reason any of this happened was because Odysseus was part of the mutual protection pact thing that all of Helen’s suitors joined to protect people from getting jealous of whoever she married. And Odysseus even actively tried to prevent having to sail over to Troy (and as a consequence, going through the Odyssey) but his tricks were foiled when Agamemnon threatened Telemachus’s life. So it could’ve been possible that Odysseus became a naval captain while being scared of the water, it just isn’t the case
@MrJoeyWheeler2 ай бұрын
Quick correction: Odysseus didn't become the captain in a navy. He's a military captain (well, their king, but functionally "captain" in the army), it's just that they have to use ships to sail from Ithaca to other lands they fight in.

I dont know if anyone has commented this yet, but when the siren sings "This is your only way home, the lair of Scylla," Circe's theme is playing on piano in the background. This is hinting to the original Greek myth of Scylla. Scylla was originally a nymph on Circe's island, and everything started when the hero Glaucus arrived. They both fell in love with him, but Glaucus liked Scylla more than Circe. So Circe got jealous and poured a potion into the sea where Scylla was bathing, truning her into the monster she is now. I thought it was a subtle but clever nod to the myth so i wanted to share it with you guys.

For the beeswax question, i think they already had the stuff in stock bc its pretty important for maintainance. They probably melted beeswax into different cloths making them waterproof, hell, maybe even doing that to the sails. (Pls do furthur research, i just know of the use of beeswax for cloths and food preservation, and maybe thread too)

Small point but I haven’t seen anyone talking about it. In “Suffering”, “I would take the suffering from you” actually changes each time. First time it’s “I would take”, second “I can take”, finally “I will take” as the siren slowly gets more frustrated that Odysseus won’t get in the water
