My men and I the set upon the island of Laistrygonia where I
and a few other of my men came upon a girl (Artakia) who promised us fresh
water, but instead lead us to her lord (Antiphates) who ate one of my men! All the men then tried to flee but only one
could escape because of the fact that all 12 ships were lodged inside a canyon.
The rest were crushed by boulders the Lasitrygonians threw. It was a dreadful
day in which we lost one man and 12 ships a terrible loss luckily we got away after a day. Once again, I made
the same mistakes for a third time, although his intentions were correct, the
gods just weren't on my side. So my first mistake was that I even tried to get
to know the people. My second was for parking all 12 of my ships in a narrow
canyon with no escape route. I feel like I have let my men down in the long
quest back to Ithaca.
