After helping the village rebuild , Odysseus and Hercules travelled onwards for days until they reached forest, "this is where we part ways my friend" said Hercules, they shook hands then Hercules went on towards the mountains soon vanishing into the mist. Odysseus travelled on through the forest for some time and decided to rest for a few hours, when he awoke it was night and there were strange noises in the distance, suddenly a burst of bronze light flashes and a woman appeared in front of him , her long dark hair glimmering in the moonlight her eyes green like emeralds , "I am Artemis" she said , she reached into her robe and took out an orb and handed it to Odysseus, "this orb will let you talk to the gods, but be warned, you can only use it three times then it's power runs out" said Artemis. "Use it wisely" she said as she fades into the darkness. Odysseus travels onwards until he reaches a clearing in the forest, suddenly a demon emerges from trees and attacks, Odysseus quickly grabs his amulet and points it at the demon, the demon falls to its knees growling then Odysseus drives his sword through it's heart, then suddenly the demon bursts into flames in front of him and vanishes. The moonlight shines brighter as he walks onwards, "so that's what the amulet is for" as he thinks to himself, he reaches a river and collects some water, just as Odysseus was about to drink some water a burst of blue light flashes in front of him, "don't drink the water mortal , it's poisonous" he said, the man standing in front of him was Poseidon, "here take this pouch of water , this water comes from our spring atop mount Olympus" said Poseidon. Odysseus thanked Poseidon, "It will last until you reach your next destination" said Poseidon as he waved his trident and disappeared into the mist. Odysseus set up camp and rested until morning.
