my take on the queen of ithaca in progress 🤞ðŸ¤
Penelope is the big spoon. no I will not elaborateon the thoughts behind this
-Tel
Poor Telemachus 😔
Penelope again because she is the queen of my heart.
The Olive Tree
I think it was really fitting for Odysseus and Penelope to have met at that specific type of tree for multiple reasons.
Olive trees are meant to symbolize longevity, rebirth, endurance, and peace as well as being a sacred symbol of Athena. All of those qualities fit with the pair. Longevity and endurance because of how their love never faded despite all the years apart. Odysseus comes back to Ithaca after all the tragedies had changed him, something that you could argue is a rebirth of sorts.
Peace was the hardest one to think of but I settled on it being symbolic of the peace that is now in the palace without the suitors. Apart, there had been over a hundred men threatening Penelope and Telemachus and disrespecting their hosts’ home. With Odysseus returning, there is no longer that danger that had been lurking and peace is restored to the halls. The Athena part is pretty self-explanatory.

Sad Ithica Thoughts
I love Epic: The Musical and was sad to see it end. And I couldn't help, but concoct and hear these lyrics whenever the little reprise tune of 'I'm Just a Man' plays during 'Would You Fall In Love With Me Again?' when Penelope and Odysseus finally embrace 🎶 I’m just a man Who finally made it home
After all the years away from what I’ve known
I’m just a man
Who fought for his life
I traded the world to see my son and wife
I’m just a man 🎶
And I've been waiting...
Waiting...
Waiting...
Waiting...
...You.
