EPIC the Musical fan tries to read the Odyssey for the first time ✦ ep 1

trying to read the odyssey for the first time because epic the musical (the one by Jorge Rivera-Herrans, clips from @JayHerrans ) has taken over my life a little bit. but that's okay. the translation i'm reading is by emily wilson, it's really good i'd recommed it :)

clips from the musical:
"No Longer You" (underworld saga)
"Warrior of the Mind" (troy saga)
"Just a Man" (troy saga)
"Done For" (circe saga)
"Monster" (underworld saga)
(maybe another one i forgot sorry but it should be in the video)

background music from: @ludandschlattsmusicalempor6746 (jschlatt and ludwig's copyright free ones, thank you)

all by mr jorge and the epic the musical crew (def go check them out if you haven't already but if so idk why you're here)

i hope you like the video! it's my first time making one talking to a camera, it was very nerve-racking but it was also really fun!
