Summary
Eurylochus’ face looms over him as he looks up, trying to push himself from the ground. His brother-in-law’s expression is one he’s seen many times before; he has just never been on the receiving end of it.
Odysseus’ body seems too heavy for him to even stand, every time he tries to move, he is met with all-consuming pain and his lungs feel ready to collapse. He tries to speak, to plead, but all that comes out of his throat is a pathetic croak.
“You are a twisted man, Odysseus. We were all just too trusting to see it.” Eurylochus’ words are sharp and biting, but they are true.
Odysseus is twisted. He is sick and evil. He is a monster.
”You will go down in history just the same as Hector. Your legacy will be one of selfishness and cruelty. The people will know you as a liar and a whore. It is all you will ever be.” Eurylochus raises a foot and brings it down hard on Odysseus’ chest.
He gasps and coughs, but somehow finds his voice, “They will not know you.”
Eurylochus shouts as he raises his sword, and the last thing Odysseus sees is the blade headed for his jugular.
