Odysseus relates his tall tale filled with [[the Cyclopes]], [[the Lotus-eaters]], [[Circe]], and [[Helios]] the sun god. It was grecian tradition to relate a story or provide some recompense to the aiders of a traveller, this is how Odysseus pays them for their help, or course, by relating his elaborate tale on how he lost his fleet of 12 sheeps to the wrath of [[Poseidon]] and the brutishness of [[the Laestrygonians]]. The poor Phaecians send Odysseus off much like Helios did with a safe travel, only to be turned to stone as they reached their home port, never to aid travellers again. |
