Journey to the Underworld
I am truly mad, a sane person would not dare to venture into the Underworld. However, this must be done. If my men and I are to stand a chance when we travel to Ithaca we must consult the prophet, Tiresias.
Nonsense!! If you have a true purpose to travel to the Underworld then you clearly are not mad. Look at myself!! I ventured to the Underworld to reclaim my wife, Aristaeus. Does that action make me a fool? No, of course not. However, failing to uphold my bargain with the lord of the dead, Hades was foolish so in retrospect I was a fool.
