Odysseus, help us!

Hold fast!

The sea will not claim us tonight!

My lords, word has reached every harbor.

Odysseus sailed straight into the Kraken's waters. No man survives the

Kraken.

By sunrise, the sea will have swallowed what's left of the great king.

Never underestimate that man.

He has cheated death before. If he escapes, he'll be wounded, exhausted,

barely able to stand. Then we finish him before he reaches Idaika. Hire every

pirate, every mercenary between here and the island.

This time, Odysseus will never come home.

Ten years the queen waited.

Ten years the bed stayed cold.

Tonight, no more waiting.

You may touch what I offer.

Good girl.

She chose the table where kings once feasted. Tonight it would serve a

different hunger.

She took what she wanted.

No permission needed.

Ah, yes.

Good.

Slower. Make me feel it.

While the queen believed the long years of waiting were finally over, her

husband was still fighting the sea itself.

She had denied herself for years.

Tonight, she took everything.

The feast of the body was over.

For now.

But the sea does not forget its kings.

My queen!

Ships have been sighted on the horizon!

Odysseus is returning!

Something is drifting towards us.

His heart still beats, barely.

Leave him. Every human who reaches these waters brings war behind him. He's the

one they call Odysseus.

Then he's worth more alive than dead. A king can become a powerful bargain.

Or a dangerous prisoner.

He'll be useful either way.

Bring him to the island.

The messenger should have returned by now. If the Kraken did its work, there

should be nothing left of Odysseus.

Wreckage from Odysseus has been found off the coast, my lords.

Finally! Now, the throne will be mine.

Let's see whom Penelope will choose.

Let's see.

Come into the water, both of you.

Ah, yes.

Deeper. You're burning hot, my queen.

If he remains here any longer, the higher-ups will drain him dry.

Get him out of Crystal tonight.

Stay still. I'll explain everything when we get there.

Who are you?

Why are you helping me?

We have watched your journey for many years.

Most kings save themselves first.

You never did.

You always chose your men before yourself.

Every night we thought you would die.

And little by little, we fell in love with you.

It's so warm.

Gods.

Stay a little longer, King. I cannot. My wife is waiting.

She may not be waiting the way you imagine.

If you return as a king, you will never see the truth.

Go home, but not as Odysseus.

Disguise yourself as a beggar.

The great Odysseus is truly dead.

The sea swallowed him years ago.

Dead? I found a piece of Odysseus' wrecked ship off the coast. No message,

no body. He is gone. Then it is time you choose, my queen. One of us must become

king. You both want the throne?

Then prove it.

Do this, you both of you.

I'm home.

The sea brought him home as nothing.

Go home, but not as Odysseus.

Disguise yourself as a beggar.

No one knew the king had returned, and the law of Zeus still held.

Stop right there, you filthy old man. You want your turn with the queen, too?

Go amuse yourself somewhere else.

I'm talking to you! Cutting the line?

Hey, are you deaf?

This old madman has gone insane!

Kill him!

Go elsewhere.

Do not touch this door again.

Ten years and not a single word. He abandoned you. He loved his war

more than he ever loved me. Let the fish have him.

You swore to me.

I will wait.

No matter how many years, my body and my heart belong only to you. Make me forget

him.

The promise she once made, now shattered between the weight of desire and

betrayal. Yes, let the past disappear.

You broke your oath, so I will break my silence.

Odysseus, the king is back.

No more waiting.

Interesting way to keep the throne warm.

I heard every word, Weiss.

About the fish.

About how I loved war more than you.

Don't stop on my account.

You wanted your king.

Our king is dead.

Then why are you afraid?

Prove you are Odysseus! Die, imposter!

You know my face.

You know my sword.

Do you need my grave as well?

All of you, now!

Odysseus!

You have forgotten whose house you stand in.

You entered this palace as guests.

You ate from my table. You dishonored my house.

Imposter. Kill him!

You should have stayed dead. I came home.

You finally came home.

I promised I would.

You have returned, but your debt remains.

What debt?

They wear the crown!

But you are still one man.

And you are still thieves in my house.

Kill

me

then! You chose your fate.

So strong, my Odysseus. Who the hell are you? Where is Penelope?

What are you talking about? I'm Penelope, your wife.

Tell me where Penelope is, now!

You thought you knew me.

The woman you saw before was never Penelope.

A test for one man, a punishment for many.

They broke the law of hospitality.

What are you doing? Where is Penelope?

Collecting your debt.

She has nothing to do with this!

She is the price.

Then tell me what I did.

You blinded my son.

Your son?

The Cyclops?

You mocked him.

You blinded him. You left him screaming in the dark.

Find me. I will. Then sail west.

If you want her back, come and face my son.

Then the west is where I'm going.

You took my wife.

Now I'll take her back.

No soldiers.

No fleet.

Just one road.

West.

What?

Someone is turning the sea.

Zeus?

I know you're watching.

I'm still going west.

No!

Stay on course!

You want me to turn back?

Then come and make me!

Zeus! You hid her from me!

You were warned.

Turn back.

I won't.

Not while she waits for me. Then the sea will decide.

Too quiet.

You sailed into my waters again.

I have no quarrel with you. You do now.

Penelope!

Brace yourself!

You dare sail west through my waters?

I dare anything for my wife. Then you have learned nothing.

What do you want from me?

You killed my child, the Kraken.

Kraken! It's a monster! It tried to kill my men! And you called it victory.

It was!

Odysseus, help me!

My king, the sea is taking us! That is the price he must pay for killing all my

men. Then I will block your path to find your wife.

Turn back.

Odysseus. No!

I can send you home alive.

Without Penelis?

Without her.

Then I'd rather die at sea.

So be it.

Not yet!

Move!

Come on!

Last chance.

Turn back.

She's there.

You cannot reach her.

Then I'll die trying.

Then die as you lived.

Proud The

find Penelope. Why should I because you once stood beside me?

to win battles.

Have you learned anything since the Battle of Troy?

Tonight, Troy will open its own gates.

Loser! They believe it's a gift. Let them believe.

Open the gates!

Trample upon the spoils of war.

Is that what I taught them?

I gave you wisdom for war, not permission to mock it.

But Troy would never fall by force.

And what did victory make you?

A wise man knows when to stop.

Now I will give you one chance to find your wife again.

Three doors.

One leads west.

Choose quickly.

You taught me that wisdom is knowing when to stop. Then I choose not to fight

anyone. Why do you walk away?

The doors are the distraction.

The real path was never behind them.

Now you remember.

Wisdom is knowing when not to fight.

Penelope?

The island knows where she went.

My greatest sin.

I have killed kings.

Burned cities.

Look again.

Who are you?

We need food.

Then take what you need and leave.

No. Leave my cave!

Now.

I can't see.

Remember my name.

Odysseus. Why?

Please. You should have never touched my men.

Tell the gods who defeated you. You think this makes you a god?

I had already won, but I wanted him to know I won.

My greatest sin was wasn't defeating him. It was believing victory made me

greater than him.

You know me. I know what you did.

Polyphemus was my brother.

And I have waited for you.

Fight me!

I won't. I will show you how ridiculous your glory of defeating a Cyclops truly

is. Cyclops never wished to hurt anyone.

But because of your arrogance, you attacked my brother.

I'm sorry.

Then why are you here?

To find Penelope. She came here before you.

Stay alive.

If my husband ever comes here, help him.

Why would she save you?

Because she is not you.

the western passage.

I help you for her, not for you.

I will bring her home.

Don't promise me.

Promise her.

Penelope.

Don't make me regret saving you.

You finally made it.

Where is my wife?

Did you touch her?

She lived here.

I protected her.

Why would she stay with you?

Because she chose to.

You can go back.

Back to what?

The man I loved?

Or the man he became.

She chose Zeus.

She didn't fight him.

Let me go.

You are willing?

This is what it takes.

He's searching for me.

I was wrong.

You must endure it all to earn my forgiveness.

You finally understand.

Odysseus, I miss you.

Penelope.

You came.

Come home, Odysseus.

I've waited so long.

I'm here now.

I was wrong.

Why did you go with Zeus?

Because I was afraid. Not of Zeus.

Of you. I was afraid of the man you were becoming.

Then why did you wait for me?

Because I watched you.

Every step.

And you changed.

Can you forgive me?

I already did.

You found your way back.

No.

You found yourself.

Are you ready?

As long as you're with me.

Home?

Home.
