My fellow gods and goddesses, it is to my grief that I have summoned you all to this meeting today on Mount Olympus. You see, I have been quite involved in Odysseus' trials and tribulations for the past twenty-five years or so, and frankly, I've had enough. Odysseus and his family are going to be the death of me. I just know it. So my request is to have my Patron Goddess responsibilities revoked permanently. …showed first 75 words of 657 total…

…showed last 75 words of 657 total…knowing Odysseus, he will not cease to cause mischief. I have fulfilled my patron duties and wish to have no more contact with Odysseus or his family, so that I may lead my immortal life as it should be led: lying on soft pillows atop Mount Olympus while being fed beautiful ripe grapes one by one. I beg of you, release me from this heavy burden that has plagued my immortality for far too long.
