[The Odyssey]

Scylla & Charybdis

Scylla is a vile monster living in a cave above the strait between two rocks. She has six heads which grab sailors from ships as they pass. You know that if you try to avoid her you will go too close to the whirlpool Charybdis, and your ship will be sucked down and all will be lost. You don't tell the men about Scylla - hoping to run the gauntlet - but inevitably her six heads snatch six of them. But you are past, and the ship is still intact.
BUT NOW YOU ARE HEADING STRAIGHT FOR THE MOST SERIOUS TROUBLE YET! THE ISLAND OF THRINACIA IS NEXT!
