What were Zeus' events in the story odyssey?
Zeus was the Greek king of gods. The Odyssey includes everything in the Iliad and of Odysseus's journey home. So pretty much imagine all of one story and then all of the next story.

The only thing I can remember Zeus doing was making Calypso release Odysseus from her island so he could come home.
