The first route Circe gives to Odysseus would send him through the Wandering Rocks. This route has only been navigated successfully one time. The rocks effectively destroy any ship that attempts to sail through them.
Circe sends Odysseus to the Land of the Dead to seek guidance from the prophet Teiresias. She instructs him to consult Teiresias about how to navigate the challenges he faces on his journey home to Ithaca. This visit is crucial for Odysseus to gain valuable insights into the trials ahead and to learn how to appease the gods, ensuring his safe return.
He doesn't escape, he's let go. After Zeus says it's time to send Odysseus home, he describes what will happen on this last leg of the journey. Then, he send Hermes to tell Calypso it's time to send Odysseus away. She gives Odysseus some tools, they go into the forest and he builds himself a ship. She gives him some cloth, he makes sails. She supplies him and send him on his way.
The Phaeacians sent Odysseus back to Ithaca thanks to their king, King Alcinous.
Nausicaa was a protagonist. Odysseus and her were very fond of one another. She was princess of Phaeacia, and her father helped send Odysseus back to Ithaca, his homeland. Therefore, Odysseus never "escaped" from her.
Athena is generally the goddess who pities Odysseus, and pleads with the Gods to send him home. Calypso also pities Odysseus when she finds him washed up on her shores, and she nurses Odysseus back to health.
