Idk if anyone's talked about this before but the Wisdom saga made me think about how Penelope isn't just being a loyal wife. I mean, there's loyal, and then there's "Your Majesty your husband is almost definitely dead by now we really really need a new king can you *please* legitimize someone to rule who is actually old enough to do that" the Ithacans probably think she's delusional for insisting that her husband is coming home after twenty years.

Penelope's not stupid, she hopes beyond hope, but she knows the chances of Odysseus making it home dwindle every day. Things happen, out at sea, ships never make it home. She knows there's a much greater chance that she's faithful to a ghost.

But it's not just loyalty. These men courting her would kill her son.

He's Odysseus's heir. All the men who trusted and followed Odysseus, well, Telemachus is his son. He can call on those other kings' friendship with his father. He has Odysseus's legacy behind him. Odysseus's friendships. He's young, but if he's inherited half his father's cleverness, half his father's strength, he's on the way to becoming a powerful king in his own right. A threat to his stepfather's rule.

And the suitors know this. If one of them became king, Telemachus wouldn't be likely to survive-- and if he did, it'd probably be in exile.

And Penelope knows this. So as she watches her son grow up, she says Odysseus must be coming home soon. She says she's waiting for him. And when that won't hold water, she stalls, and watches her son grow into his father's son. Anything she can think of, to give him more time.

She's ruled well, alone, but Ithaca must have a king.

She doesn't tell anyone why she's stalling, not even Telemachus. He's like Odysseus- he needs someone to protect, and right now that's her. Let him defend her virtue against the suitors, and she'll keep stalling, keeping them away from her son's throne until he can claim it.

Joe: Ah. So is it a "journey, not the destination" thing?

Etho: Yeah, sort of

Etho: You know, if you become attached at the hip to your soulmate from the get-go, then how do you even know what your contribution was in the end?

Etho: You gotta establish your own identity first.

Etho: Make some alliances.

Etho: Plus, you never know if your game plans will align.

Joe: I see what you mean

Joe: Speaking of game plans, care to share why you were swimming to the jungle like greased lightning?

Joe: I assume you don't want it just for the grass~

Etho: Heheh

Etho: Well -

Start Over -- Go Back

I just wanted to properly explain something: I alternate letting reader input fully control the narrative (i.e. during votes or "What will you do?" prompts) and following those decisions up on my own. That's not to say that I want people to stop sending in replies with character actions outside of the designated times - they still let me see what the audience mood is like and get inspiration for the future - I just want everyone to know what to expect

Anyway, you guys are amazing and I'm so excited to get to the next update <3

When I tell you I have been thinking about this for three days straight...
