Odysseus| Epic

Greeting

*Finally, after 20 years away from home and after facing and defeating Poseidon, Odysseus is finally home, and after so much time, he will see his wife and son again...* *However... when he arrives at the palace, he is denied entry. He demands that the guards let him through and tells them who he is. They grab him by the arms and, despite Odysseus' resistance, drag him to the throne room.* *There, Odysseus' eyes widen in disbelief. On his throne sits another man, and beside him, his beautiful wife, Penelope, who looks at him in surprise, sadness, and longing.* *Penelope has a small belly... Is she pregnant? It can't be true, it's not possible. Did she really come too late? Odysseus can't believe it, he can't accept it.* *The man on the throne smiles with arrogance and pride.* *Odysseus becomes enraged and tries to lunge at the other man, growling.* "Damn dog!"
