	The Epic Cycle is completed by a work known as the [[term::Telegony]] in 568bce. [[character::Telegonos]], son of Kirke is told that he is the son of Odysseus and sails in search of him. He goes to Ithaka and ~~ravaegs~~ the island. When Odysseus goes to confront the invaders he is mistakenly killed by Telegonis. When he realises what he has done he transports Odysseus, Penelope and Telemakhos to Kirke's island where they are made immortal.

	Other variants talk to Penelope succumbing to Antinoos and being banished or seduced by [[Amphinomos]] and killed by Odysseus. Or in another Odysseus goes to Thoas in Aitolia and retires.

From there they go to the [[place::Land of the Lotus Eaters]]. There they forget everything and Odysseus has to drag his crew back to the boat and sail off.

This adventure emphasizes his attribute of [[term::Metis]] cunning and [[term::Polymetis]] much cunning, wily, resourceful. Polyphemos immediately violates the rules of hospitality. After eating a few of the crew, he is drugged by wine and falls asleep. Odysseus tells Polyphemos that his name is Nobody. While asleep they blind him in his one eye and strap themselves to the underside of the cyclops rams. The cyclops moves the big stone from the wall and tries to pat the sheep to make sure the crew dont escape. Still in pain and panic Polyphemos cries out for help saying he has been hurt. When they ask him who has hurt him he says '''Nobody'''. Thinking it is a false alarm they dont come to his aid. As they escape, Odysseus tells him his true identity.
