Answer:

Song from sirens is very seductive but Odysseus chooses to hear it to know about the future. Circe warns him that he will not be able to see Penelope or Telemachus if he listens to the sirens

Circe may not want to advice them about which route to take as she is in love with him and doesn't want him to return ot Ithacca.

Step-by-step explanation:

Th question is about the events in a book " The Odyssey" written by Homer in 8th century BCE. Iti a an account of a warrior's voyage to his home.
