When Telemachus arrives, a double ceremony is being celebrated: the suitors are holding a contest to win Penelope's hand in marriage, and the funeral rites for the deceased King Agamemnon are also being honored. This gathering underscores the tension in Ithaca, as the suitors take advantage of Odysseus's absence while simultaneously reflecting on the themes of loyalty and loss in the wake of Agamemnon's death. The ceremonies highlight the contrasting values of the suitors and the loyalty of Penelope to Odysseus.
