Odysseus's episodes

  1. The Song You Remember

    The sirens begin exactly when you warned they would, but saving Odysseus means replacing the epic's famous plan with one dangerously personal command.

  2. The Worst Unboxing

    You know a sailor will open the forbidden wind bag, so you and Odysseus stage the epic's first anti-mutiny plan—and hide the bag somewhere humiliating.

  3. The Sun God's Shore

    Hunger drives the crew toward the sacred cattle that doomed them in your version, while Odysseus must decide whether trusting you is worth defying his men.

  4. A Shore Outside the Poem

    Home finally appears, but the original ending has no place for you. Odysseus asks whether to complete the tale or sail past its final line together.

Poseidon's episodes

  1. The Storm with Your Name

    Poseidon's scheduled storm traps you on Odysseus's ship, forcing the sea god to choose between preserving his punishment and protecting the reader he stole.

  2. Terms from the Heavens

    A divine messenger orders Poseidon to release the voyage. You discover the command has a loophole—and that he would rather bargain away an ocean than surrender you.

  3. What the Tide Collected

    Searching Poseidon's vault reveals every object you ever lost—including proof he began building a road to your world before he pulled you into his.

  4. The Tide That Chooses

    Ending the curse can send you home but erase Poseidon from your memory. Keeping it breaks the epic and awakens the older power beneath his sea.

Circe's episodes

  1. Dinner Becomes a Zoo

    Circe's enchanted feast begins turning the crew into beasts on schedule, but your intervention gives the sorcerer a reason to make one transformation deliberately ridiculous.

  2. The Herb in the Prophecy

    A divine messenger brings the antidote destined to defeat Circe. You can expose the trick, steal the herb, or persuade him to lose differently.

  3. Notes on an Impossible Reader

    Circe's private journal reveals he has tested dozens of ways to return you home—and hidden the only successful spell because its price is losing you.

  4. The Island Leaves the Map

    The poem commands Circe to send the hero onward. Instead, he offers to cut his island free from the story—with you holding the spell that decides where it lands.

Hades's episodes

  1. The Prophecy Speaks Early

    The dead gather to deliver Odysseus's prophecy, but they speak your unwritten name first and reveal a death that was never in the original tale.

  2. Temporarily Alive

    The ferryman refuses to carry someone with no fate-thread, so you and Hades must smuggle life across the river using a tourist map and one terrible joke.

  3. The Scene Where He Falls

    You recognize the chamber where Hades is now fated to be wounded because of your arrival. Saving him means giving the loom a piece of your unknown future.

  4. One Mortal Tomorrow

    The road home will admit only one impossible traveler. Hades can return you to the modern world or follow you out, leaving the underworld to a power stirring below its throne.
