Odysseus prepared by disguising himself as a beggar, and managing to enter his castle during his feast. He build up his reputation as an old man who had lost his wealth.
Odysseus' wife was Penelope, daughter of Icarius and Periboea.
Before Penelope meets her suitors, Athene, the goddess of wisdom, intervenes to prepare her for the challenges ahead. She enhances Penelope’s beauty and confidence, making her more radiant and appealing. This divine assistance helps Penelope navigate the difficult situation with the suitors who are vying for her hand in marriage while she remains loyal to her husband, Odysseus.
Odysseus proves his identity to Penelope by revealing the secret of their bed, which he constructed himself from a living olive tree, making it impossible to move. When Penelope mentions moving the bed to prepare for his arrival, he responds with indignation, demonstrating his intimate knowledge of their life together. This unique detail reassures Penelope that the man before her is indeed her husband, Odysseus, and not an imposter.
