Odysseus survives at sea for ten days after Zeus sends a storm to punish him for his crew's actions. The storm, caused by the god Poseidon, wreaks havoc on his ship and ultimately leads to the loss of his crew. After the storm subsides, Odysseus is finally washed ashore on the island of Ogygia, where he encounters the nymph Calypso.
