Happy Holidays and Odysseus returns to his palace.

Let me begin by saying merry Christmas, happy Honaker as it has passed and enjoy your Kwanza and holidays you all!!!

Theoclymenus next tells Penelope as she speaks with Telemachus that he like his prophetic ancestors knows that Odysseus is in Ithaca as they speak.
Meanwhile Eumaeus and Odysseus take foot to reach the palace and on route encounter Melanthius a flunky of the suitors who kicks Odysseus disguised as a beggar, this portrays the mentality of the Greeks who ally themselves and relate to the suitors. It is this barbaric behaviour that odysseys wants to destroy to herald in a new epoch of evolved peaceful Greeks. At the palace Odysseus is treated in a similar way, the suitors reluctantly give him food and Antinous insults him with everything he can muster. Penelope hears of the cruelty of the suitors towards the beggar Odysseus and requests his presence in her chambers to ask him of Odysseus. Odysseus does not like idea of being seen going into the queens chambers as a beggar and Eumaeus takes leave for his hut and swine leaving Odysseus disguised as a beggar to the care of Telemachus. One notices Penelope is a kind as Odysseus to beggars , as was Telemachus to Theoclymenus , truly portraying the noble heart that marks the paradigm of the new image of the Greek coming to bare in Greece as the outmoded suitors show why they are outmoded and of a lower specious and evolution of humanity.
