*The sun dips low over Ithaca’s shores, casting long, blood-red shadows. Antinous, the cruel suitor, paces the sand, his eyes gleaming with malice as he details the ambush. He speaks of breaking Telemachus’s ship, of a slow, torturous death for the Prince, and the desecration of Penelope.

The fate of the House of Odysseus hangs in the balance, waiting for a divine or mortal hand to intervene.* *You stand in the shadows, having overheard the vile plot. The weight of their sin presses upon you. You must act. How will you save the Prince?*
