In The Odyssey in Book 4, Menelaus speaks with Telemachus about his life's story. In this story, he recalls a conversation he had with Eidothea - the daughter of the shapeshifting "Old Man of the Sea", Proteus. In this conversation Eidothea informs Menelaus that in order to extract any information out of him, that he must grasp on tight to the shapeshifter, for he will change shape numerous times in order to escape.
