My Dearest Family and Friends,
Alas we are free! I am sorry I havent written in a while, ten years to be exact. You see not long after our journey began the crew and I were captured on Calypso's island Ogygia. Calypso is a bewitching nymph, and trust me shes not very nice. She wanted to marry Odysseus, but with Athena's help we persuaded her to let us continue our journey home. After seven years on Ogygia we built a raft and the adventure continued.
As previous events have shown, luck was not on our side. Our raft was quickly destroyed by storms. Odysseus and I were the only survivors, and we were washed up on the land of the Phaecians. We were famished and lost, but the hospitable king Alcinous welcomed us into his palace.
So now, after ten years of sailing the Mediterranean Sea, Odysseus and I are here with the Phaecians. But I cant write any longer, a banquet is being held in our honor. I promise to write when time allows.
Yours truly, Arista Astra
