Well I've read the part of the odyssey about Odysseus, and it was mentioned in the book about Odysseus having a long voyage was because he had hurt Poseidons son the cyclopes.

Poseidon, the god of the sea, plays a significant role in The Odyssey as he seeks revenge against Odysseus for blinding his son, the Cyclops Polyphemus. Poseidon's actions, such as causing a storm that destroys Odysseus' ships and prolonging his journey home, demonstrate his wrath and influence over the protagonist's fate. Odysseus' struggles against Poseidon's interference highlight the power and unpredictability of the gods in Greek mythology.
