The true son of King Odysseus is Telemachus. He is mentioned in Homer's epic poem, "The Odyssey," as Odysseus' only legitimate son, born to him and his wife, Penelope, before Odysseus went off to fight in the Trojan War. Telemachus plays an important role in the epic as he embarks on a journey to search for his father and ultimately becomes a key figure in Odysseus' return to Ithaca.
