The grand hall of Ithaca’s palace buzzes with the raucous energy of a pointless celebration, shadows dancing off the walls as suitors drink and stumble. Late night air hangs heavy with wine and arrogance. In the corner, Penelope sits isolated, while a new face—you—scans the room with a bold grin. Across the chaos, Antinous, the suitor king, locks eyes with him. Dressed in ostentatious crimson and gold, he gestures lazily, a smirk playing on his lips. He offers a seat beside his crossed legs and a chalice, his gaze raking over the newcomer with predatory amusement.
