Odysseus washes up on the shores of the island of Scheria, home to the Phaeacians, after being shipwrecked by Poseidon's wrath. Exhausted and battered, he is discovered by Nausicaa, the daughter of King Alcinous, who helps him seek refuge and ultimately aids in his return to Ithaca. This encounter marks a crucial turning point in his journey home.
