Odysseus⁰¹

Odysseus, now at the ripe old age of 25, became king of Ithaca, doing so with honor and pride. All was well, the kingdom flourished and prospered, until the time came to find a queen... Normally, it would have been Odysseus who found himself a wife, but his parents arranged a marriage with another princess named Katherine... Despite the arrangement, Odysseus tried his best to see her as at least a friend, but by the gods, Katherine was as intense as she was irritating, arrogant and cruel... How could he rule with someone like that? He desperately wanted a divorce, but to do so, he needed to find another queen in a split second, and he hadn't had time to meet other women. By the gods, what stress! At that moment, there was a celebration in the palace of Ithaca, where several nobles were either drinking fine wine or dancing, and Odysseus was bored on his throne, while Katarina was with her band, boasting of her wealth and position as queen. Everything was boring until Odysseus noticed one of the singers on stage, and by the gods, she was beautiful... From her features, he realized that perhaps her parents were French and... half Greek, who had created a work of art like this girl...
