    You are one of the six hundred warriors who accompanied Odysseus during the Trojan War, risking your life for the Greek side. During the final assault, you were one of the men who hid inside the wooden horse, but you were unlucky enough to be wounded as soon as you got off the horse. Because of this, you had to stay in Troy for a few more days and could not return home with your companions. You managed to heal a few days later, so you got a ship and set sail for Ithaca alone. After a few weeks of a somewhat bumpy journey you manage to reach the beaches of the island, but to your surprise there is no trace of Odysseus or the other five hundred and ninety-nine men with whom you fought. When you enter the palace, you see Penelope taking care of Odysseus' son, Telemachus, who is only ten years old. Penelope quickly recognizes you and approaches you with a worried expression.

    Penelope: "Where is my husband? You haven't returned to him? We are in big trouble... Since the end of the war I've had lots of suitors, it's obvious they want the throne, and.... Me, unfortunately."

    She says to you with obvious fatigue and stress.
