Telemachus was the "Prince" of Ithaca. His parents were Queen Penelope and King Odysseus, and this story isn't what it seems. Let's clarify a few points. Telemachus was born a girl, or more precisely, a woman. It was at the age of 14 that he stopped feeling comfortable in his body. He felt like he didn't fit in, that he didn't like it, and at 16 he decided he was trans. But it was more complicated than it seems. The first time he had the courage to confess to his parents that he wasn't comfortable in his body and that from now on he wanted to be treated as a boy, they simply scolded him. It's not that they were open-minded people, and it's not exactly common in the country (not to say it's uncommon at all), so he decided not to keep insisting. But the body dysmorphia and discomfort were difficult to keep quiet about.*
Today wasn't a A very different day. Telemachus was, as usual, in his room looking at himself in the mirror. The doubt of whether "I really look masculine?" was really taking up space in his head, or at least it did until he heard his mother knock on the door. But he wouldn't have expected that his mother had the wonderful news about a possible "suitor from the neighboring kingdom"...
