A god grants Odysseus the power to punish divine beings, tasking him with overthrowing Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. Odysseus immediately sets sail to return home. En route, he blinds Poseidon's son, incurring the sea god's wrath. Poseidon attacks but is wounded by Odysseus's new power and forced to retreat. In fury, Poseidon curses Odysseus, condemning him to a long, treacherous journey home to a family destined to betray him. Odysseus presses on, clinging to the thought of his wife, Penelope, waiting for him.
