After leaving Troy, Odysseus initially sailed to the land of the Cicones, where he faced resistance. He then traveled to the land of the Lotus-Eaters, which nearly caused his men to forget their journey. Following this, he encountered the Cyclops Polyphemus, which led to further challenges. Ultimately, Odysseus reached the strait where Scylla and Charybdis resided, navigating between the two dangers as part of his perilous journey home.
