Arete's+first+entry

Nausicaa Dear Journal, I am very excited to write my first entry, in my first journal for many years. It is not fancy just some paper I found around the palace that i strung together, with ribbon. Besides that today we have been honoured with the pleasure of having Some great and __strong__ stranger. I have not found out his name yet but he has sure impressed me. He lifted a weight that no other man in the palace could lift whoever he his I have a strong suspision that he is a king in his homeland "Ithaka". I am not sure if my beautiful daughter or my sons Apollo and Laodomas have encountered him yet but I hope they like him or at leats get along. Other than that things are fine in the palace. But I must go now I will write back with his name later.

Your strong and noble queen, Arete

Dear Journal, I have found it out I have found it out! I have found out his name the strangers name. Its is Odysseus and he is King of Ithaka where ever that is. I asked around and I guess you could say I researched about him but hey i'm intruged about him. Other than that I have made close friends with Poseidon. He is also very strong and kind and mighty. Also my children have been getting along with Odysseus especially Nausicaa. she has been helping him out and asking questions about him and his homeland and what its like to be king there. He also mentioned that he has a son Telemachus  and let me just say she seems very interested in him.Shes been saying when you get home tell him about me, tell him to see me or write to me telling me to come to Ithaka to see him. Oh I hope they work they would be very good together just like me and my husband

Dear Journal, After hearing Odysseus story I would like to thank Circe for being one of the nice people he came across before being here. She showed kindness and hospitality to him when he was in a tough spot because his shipmates let all he wind go in the bag that another person he came across gave him. Besides that I have enjoyed listening to his story and the danger he had to go through and i'm realizing even more now that he is very brave and bold.

Dear Journal, I am worried that My husband is getting a little jealous maybe I'm a little more interested in odysseus than I thought I was. But I am always loyal to my husband un like some people *cough cough* Clytemnestra but I shan't be pety. well i must go now and talk to my husband about this bye for now!

your strong and noble queen Arete
