What's that sound?



Following Circe's instructions, your ship floats passed the island known for its gate to the underworld. You look at it wistfully, but soon another island comes into view. It is very small and a soft, beautiful music can barely be heard floating on the waves. Everyone else plugs their ears while you listen, enchanted.

In your log, write some of the dangers Circe had you avoid by not going to the underworld. What creature guards the gate? Also, what are the singing creatures on the tiny island? How do they kill their victims, and how did Odysseus and his men escape their song?
