After the arrow shot by Odysseus passed through the axes, Telemachus took charge of the situation and removed the weapons from the Great Hall. He then ordered the disloyal maidservants to clean the Hall and dispose of the bodies. Finally, he continued to assist his father in the subsequent battle against the suitors.

Is Odysseus married?

Yes, he's married to Penelope. Odysseus and Penelope have a son, Telemachus. Odysseus tells Penelope, "You must promise me, if I don't come back by the time Telemachus has a beard, you must marry." Penelope promises. Odysseus, still alive after 20 years, comes back to Ithaca to find suitors (men who are trying to marry Penelope) all over his home. Penelope knew he was still alive after 20 years, but people kept telling her he was dead. Suitors are very mean. Athena discuises Odysseus as an old beggar, and he, and telemachus go to their house. Penelope doesn't know it's odyssus. she tells Odysseus (the "beggar") that he still loves Odysseus and promised that she'd marry when telemachus had a beard. he had a beard now. so she held a contest to pick a husband. the contest was to string Odysseus's box & shoot an arrow through 12 ax handles. all the suitors failed to string the bow. Odysseus, the beggar, strung the box, and shot it through the 12 ax handles. he, and telemachus, killed the suitors. Athena turned Odysseus back into his old self after he killed the suitors. Penelope didn't know if it was really Odysseus, so she told the maids to remove their bed from their tree & into another room. Odysseus got mad, since right after he left for troy, he built their house & bed around a tree. Their bed was basically their symbol. Penelope then realized it was really Odysseus. Penelope & Odysseus were then reunited with each other again. Hope I helped! (:


Which suitor does Odysseus give a chance to?

Amphinomous. Odysseus, disguised as a beggar, warns Amphinomous that although he is a well-respected man and a considerable person, if he does not leave the house, he will be killed by Odysseus when he returns home.Amphinomous feels a dark forboding, but does not return to his home. Instead he stays, and is eventually killed by Telemachus with a thrown spear.
