I desperately need “Be Your Light” to return in Illion the musical. Like…imagine if it was a Penelope song???? Something to keep Odysseus going through the Trojan war as a little reminder??? A reason he keeps going???
Imagine instead of “hey there bro don’t you know” from Polites, we get “Oh my love, don’t you know” from Penelope.
Actively filing a request to Jorge
Now that I’ve listened to Vengeance on repeat, I think I have my favorite songs in order.
1. Charybdis- it slaps so hard and it literally woke me up during the live stream. Will be singing this song to my dog. Charybdis sounds like a whale.
2. Dangerous- it just slaps. It’s got so much pazzaz (I can’t spell)
3. Get in The Water- performances slayed so hard and I loved hearing the many musical motifs hidden under Poseidon and Odysseus screaming at each other.
4. 600 Strike- it’s more yelling but the instrumental goes righteously hard. I love both Odysseus and Poseidon. Ngl it kinda hurt seeing my favorite god being tortured by my favorite Greek hero.
5. Not Sorry for Loving You- song is beautiful and Wangui does a beautiful job singing, although I REALLY don’t like Calypso. It’s also a very fascinating song on a psychological level I feel.
Please note I love and adore all of these songs and Jorge blew us out of the water with this saga.
SPOILERS FOR LEGENDS ARCEUS TECHNICALLY BUT ALSO A QUESTION
⚠️⚠️⚠️
Ok does anyone know how to unlock Ingo’s harder fights in Legends Arceus? I’ve done the daybreak quests (aka the dlc), and I’ve fought Ingo several times in his regular battle. I’ve also fought the galaxy team and both clans in the path of tenacity. I have also done the path of solitude a few times. Do I have to catch god to fight silly amnesiac man?
Y’all the palladium heist is in the little iliad right? Yeah, where can I read about that? Let me in on the huge fandom consensus. Odysseus stabbed diomedes? Why? AND THEY BANTER??? WHERE IS THIS FROM???
FR I was so scared that Jorge was only going to include Scylla, so I was so happy when he revealed his reference gadget for Charybdis. We love our chittering, whale calling, whirlpool with teeth and her song SLAPS.
Not seeing enough appreciation for Charybdis as a song actually
Update from my previous post. The livestream for tonight has been cancelled. But whatever you guys do, do not blame Jorge or anyone else for this mess. Blame the WiFi and the storms at Ithaca.
Finally going to watch The Return. I’d like to formally apologize for the person I will become after those near two hours of film.
Do you mates think Odysseus or Telemachus will use the “close your eyes and spare yourself the view” line with Penelope before or after the uuuuh suitor slaughter?
3 days until Odysseus comes home.
Current lineup for favorite Ithaca Saga songs follows in this order if anyone wants to hear my opinion (if not that’s ok too)
Also spoilers technically⚠️
1. The Challenge - it’s just good. I have no comments, Penelope slays.
2. Odysseus - The suitor slaughter was done very well. It properly encapsulated how 100% done Odysseus is
3. Would You Fall In Love With Me Again - I sobbed hysterically. Need I say more.
4. I Can’t Help But Wonder - sobbed the first time. It’s a beautiful moment between father and son, and hey, welcome back, Athena.
5. Hold Them Down - Ayron slayed with that song but it’s really REALLY dark (which is good they didn’t stray away from the source material)
Please note I loved every song, it’s just that some of these will be out on endless repeat more than others.
Greek mythos brainrot is so bad that Odysseus king of Ithaka can grow mushrooms using my neurons
