Odysseus Of Ithaca And Penelope In Homer's Odyssey

“Stolídi, please. We need your help.” The lady stated. She looked at me with something undeniable in her gaze, something I couldn’t resist. At the woman’s request, I turned to discuss what it is they wanted. “Who are you?” “Odysseus of Ithaca, and my wife, Penelope.” He bowed, and Penelope clutched at her bulging stomach. They looked at me as if to come inside from the rain. I contemplated, and allowed them into my humble abode. “Ah, great Odysseus. I’ve heard much buzz about you, young man. What is it you seek.” I gripped my powerful walking stick, and limped back to my shop door. Cutting the rope, I opened the weak entrance, and ushered them in from the elements. I lit a candle, and placed my walking stick on the wall to rest.
