Alessia Caruso: Point of View

The first thing i had on my to do list was to go back to Circe’s and tell her what had happened. Then again, she was the person that told me to meet with Tiresias. So I told Circe what had happened in the land of the sea, not that I saw my mom, but what Tiresias had said to me. After I had explained to her what had happened, she informed me about something that I was not expecting. Circe said that I would have two journeys to complete and during those journeys I would encounter Scilla, the devourer, and Corruptus, the swallower. Let me tell you, that was not what I wanted to hear. I was yearning for Ithaca and the people in it, my wife, my child, and my mother.Then I remembered what I saw in the Land of the Dead and discarded that memory. Beyond that, I was missing my dog, the shadows of the long afternoons, the terraces and vineyards, and the scent of herbs on the breeze. Life was simpler in Ithaca and I couldn't wait to be home. I knew that I would have to face anything, to get my life back to how it used to be.
