The Odyssey Book 9 Novels & Stories

If I do want to end up like her then I should continue to walk. Now I have passed the ninth flag as well. The flambeau had started to burn out after the sixth flag so I quickly lightened the other with the help of it. There, I also ate bread. I am thirsty and I have little energy left. I hope I get out of the maze soon.

I took my book and I lit my index finger with fire and tried burning the book. "They got us there". Zale said and sighed getting his own book and tried to toss it in the ocean. I stopped my fire and stopped him. "Well, as we are back to square one, let's just try to gather information from the northern part," I said and smiled at him. I put my book inside my bag again. It was pointless anyway, to burn the book. It is the book of origin, a book written by the Gods, it is protected from being harmed by anything, by anyone.

It was…cute. “Tell me you’re still alive, tiny goddess. I can feel that you are, but I could also use some reassurance right now.” I let loose a sigh of relief. “We’re alive. Actually, we’ve found Ismene. Get to the center of the maze and head straight down. Oh, and don’t let the Librarian’s touch you unless you want to become one.”

Yet, Hazel carried a piece of that tranquility within her, a quiet hum that resonated in her soul. She reached her small apartment, a cozy haven amidst the urban chaos. The familiar scent of her grandmother's lavender soap greeted her, a comforting reminder of home. As she settled into her worn armchair, a steaming mug of chamomile tea in hand, she pulled out her notebook, its pages filled with her scribbled notes and interpretations of "The Odyssey."

Clearing my thoughts, I focused on the book again but stopped reading aloud. When the boat reached the split that Achilles mentioned, I wasn’t sure how to ensure the boat kept to the right. I didn’t have an oar to help steer me. I also wasn’t going to chance touching the water since I didn’t know what dangers lurked beneath the water.

Chapter 99: Deep Waters The Ithaca cut a steady, powerful path through the black Mediterranean. The water was a polished sheet of ink, reflecting only the faint, cold scatter of distant stars. Waves lapped quietly against the hull, but even that sound seemed hushed by the immensity of the night. Behind them, the lights of Nice and Monaco had vanished completely, swallowed by the open sea.
