I associate Odysseus with a map. Because he always gets lost and needs one/j nah actually it's because a map shows how and where you gotta go. If you took a turn against said map, you will be lost. Like how his crew must follow his every order and means to survive. And the second they don't, chaos happens and now they're lost. thank you Eurylocus

I associate Telemachus with a star, no matter how far he is, and doesn't matter if he's sad, he still shines to everyone around him. But sometimes that light is hidden by the clouds (overshadowed by his father's legacy. Needing to live up to it and not being able to) and ending up unseen.

I associate Penelope with a warp-weighed loom. For obvious reasons. But also with the North Star. As she is Odysseus's destination pinpoint. The true reason he wanted to return to Ithaca.

Most would think I associate Polites with the sun, but no. I see him as a candle. That lights the way in the dark when there is no moon or stars to shine your way. Without it, you will become lost. Like how Odysseus's morals slowly go more and more distorted ever since Polites.

I associate Eurylocus with a sword. I know I know it's uncreative but come on you can't say you don't see it

I associate Helen with the finest most beautiful art piece. It is sought for a lot, even if you don't like stuff like that you would still admit it is beautiful. But it's super expensive and you have many competitors trying to get her. Greed can drive someone to steal it. Like how Paris abducted her away without any say on her end.

I associate the suitors with broken dirty dishes. If not thrown away, only takes up space. But you can't really just flat out trow it away, you have to clean it up first. Like how Penelope can't kick out the suitors who are only taking up space and supply, Odysseus has to "clean up" First.

I associate Neo with a fireplace. If kept correctly it can bring warmth and a feeling of sanctuary. But if left unattended, will bring chaos and suffering later.
