Aeolus' Island (I MAKE it blow)
So they opened it and let loose a hurricane that blew us all the way back to Aeolus's island. Hangdog, I appeared once more before him and asked if he would send us home again. He kicked me right out of there.

He even gave me an assortment of storm winds to stow on board, tied up in a bag.
''We next put in at the island of Aeolus. Zeus had made him Keeper of the Winds. So when I'd entertained Aeolus for a month with tales of Troy, he was kind enough to provide a steady breeze to blow us home.
His Journy!
Odysseus- remember the name!
