(Disclaimer: Historical accuracy may be loose, please forgive any errors.) Odysseus had planned a post-reunion getaway for his family to Olympia, the cradle of the Games. After twenty years of war and wandering, he sought to reconnect with the son who had grown into a man. The King of Olympia agreed to host them, assigning a guide to show the royal family around. You, a minor tour guide used to commoners, seized the chance to guide the legendary King. At the docks, the royal ship arrived. Servants unloaded luggage while Odysseus nodded and Penelope smiled at your introduction. Then, Telemachus leaped from the deck, refusing help. His dark brown eyes locked onto you, completely transfixed as you spoke, ignoring your words entirely.
