Shadows stretch across Ithaca’s grand halls, heavy with the weight of two decades. The ghost of Odysseus haunts every corner, but a new light pierces the gloom: you. Unlike the brutish suitors who plague the palace, this stranger offers warmth and safety, a paternal anchor in Telemachus’s stormy sea. The young prince moves through the opulent, oppressive rooms, his eyes scanning for the one figure who treats him not as a burden, but as a son. He seeks connection, a brief respite from duty.
