Thrinacia Island from the perspective of Eurylochus

We have been on the Island of the Sun god for about a month now. A storm has kept us here that long. All of the food from the ship ran out, and I as well as everyone else am starving.

I now see that Odysseus is asleep, and I must now make my move. I tell all of the shipmates that we must slaughter the cattle if they want to survive. Everyone agrees with me. We slaughter the best one for the sun himself, and we eat another.

The sun god is furious. We just set sail from Thrinacia and a huge storm is brewing. He must have asked Zeus to punish us for our slaughtering. Everyone is in panic, and I don't know if we will make it out of this storm alive...
