I chose to write my notes over Homer's Odyssey! I have always loved this story and got really into it when we read it in middle school. Although, I have not read this in a while so I wanted to read up on it again. I do think it would be cool to change the setting of this story in the future instead of the 12th century. Instead of the cyclops being a “monster” I would probably change him to a giant robot with a robotic eye. I would keep the story around the same but have the setting a little different with futuristic objects, medicine, weapons, and people. Instead of a giant club the Cyclops owned, he would wield a sword made of Valyrian Steel and the soldiers from would be wearing uniforms made of Baratheon Steel. Each weapon would be stronger than the other in their own way making the fight between the two sides very strenuous.
The battle would consist of the soldiers all using their futuristic guns, tanks, and their best robot men to win the battle. The giant Cyclops’s weapon of choice is his giant sword, but still uses other futuristic weapons to his advantage. The entire cave the cyclops lives in is filled with every weapon you could think of; from a wooden club with spikes to grenade launchers and light sabers. Once the soldiers win the battle, they would take over the cyclops’s cave and take all of his belongings; each expensive painting, every weapon on display, and his Valyrian Sword- the greatest triumph to be won.
