Athena pretended to be the character Mentes, an old family friend of Odysseus, when she first met Telemachus in Homer's "The Odyssey." Disguised as Mentes, she provided guidance and encouragement to Telemachus, urging him to seek news of his father and take action against the suitors occupying their home. This encounter plays a crucial role in Telemachus's journey towards maturity and taking responsibility for his family's legacy.
