Chapter 21

The man idea in book 21 The Odyssey by Homer is when Odysseus gets back home he discised himself as someone else, but shows himself to Eumaeus and Philoetius by the scar on his foot. Also, his wife announced she will marry the suitor who can string the bow and arrow of Odysseus's and then shoot an arrow through a line of twelve axes. Therefore the suitors complained because they knew he's gonna get it. And he did, he got all 12.

In book 21 of The Odyssey by Homer is Telemachus being both protective and stubborn, but mostly stubborn. He's being protective when after his father shot every ax, Telemachus grabbed his sword and spear and he was immediately at his father's side. But mostly Telemachus was being more stubborn when he tells his mom to go to her room and stay because he says "He is the master in the house", or when he wanted to make the axes as hard as possible to weave through so the suitors couldn't win Penelope.
