Wind at our Backs

Ah we bring to you a wonderful story- sure to entertain for hours. After the near escape with the Cyclopes, we wound up on the island of Aeolus. Aeolus is the King of the Winds. He gave Odysseus a west wind to blow us towards Ithaca. He also gave a mysterious bag to Odysseus. Us men decided that it must contain a treasure of some sort. We thought that it was unfair for Odysseus to keep a treasure from us his trusty, loyal men who have been by his side through it all!! We went to open the bag only to realize that it contained winds that carried us back to the island of Aeolus. Odysseus never really said anything to us about it but I wonder what he feels like. So close to being home, yet so far. They say that he hasn't seen his wife in over 12 years. Oh we are sailing now to Zeus knows where. I'll let you know when we land somewhere.
