Book 1: A Goddess Intervenes
Growing up without a father is not easy, let me tell you. Especially when your father is a supreme warrior and the renown leader of the land of Itheca. Well, O.K., before I launch into this rant about my life, let me tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Telemakhos, and I am the sole son of the Great Odysseus. My father left both my mother, Penelope and I when I was just a toddler to go be some sort of a "Greek Hero" and go to war. While there, however, he encountered a slight problem, a Goddess by the name of Caylpso from the land of Ogygia, had fallen in love with him and refused to let him leave her island. To my dismay, the people of Itheca seem to believe that my father is dead on the island somewhere, never to be found. I know, right? The Great Odyseus, DEAD?!! Impossible (at least it is to me, however, I seem to be the only one who thinks so.) All hope is not lost though, thanks to the help of my father's long lost friend by the name of Mentor, but I suspect that she may be that gray-eyed goddess, Athena, I will have to get back to you on that though. Now, if you will please excuse me, my poor mother, god bless her, is being tormented by these horrible Ithecan suitors! I plan in the near future to inform them that their stay on this island is limited, inless they can learn to respect their royalty!!! I will for sure keep you updated on this tactic....
Thats all for now
