Penelope and the "stranger" who is Odysseus finally speak. And the suitors inch closer and closer to their doom. 

CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
