Thersilochus of Ithaca

Spiritual Animal: The Rooster

At first glance, Thersilochus appears foolish, loud, and unserious — the kind of man who laughs too much, jokes at the wrong time, and never quite knows when to stop. But this is not ignorance. It is strategy born from inadequacy.

Thersilochus knows exactly how he is perceived.

And he leans into it.

⸻

The Rooster Symbolism

The rooster is a paradoxical animal:

• Loud, colorful, attention-seeking.

• Often mistaken for brave, yet rarely the strongest in the yard.

• Crowing not to fight, but to be noticed.

Like the rooster, Thersilochus compensates with noise what he lacks in prestige.

⸻

Family Structure & Early Trauma

Thersilochus is the second-born child, but emotionally he was never allowed to be one.

The Elder Sister

The firstborn of the family — his sister — was married off extremely young, as was expected of women at the time. From that moment on, she ceased being simply a sister and became:

• A caretaker.

• A moral guide.

• A substitute mother to her younger siblings.

To Thersilochus, she was never a peer — she was an authority figure.

Her competence, sacrifice, and quiet strength became an unreachable standard.

⸻

The Weight of Comparison

After him came three younger siblings — all of whom, in different ways, surpassed him:

• More intelligent.

• More disciplined.

• More successful in sports, war, or social standing.

• Some won athletic prizes.

• Some married well.

• Some produced heirs.

Thersilochus did none of these.

Despite being older, he remained:

• Unmarried.

• Without honors.

• Without distinction.

This inverted hierarchy destroyed his sense of worth.

⸻

The Birth of the “Fool”

Unable to compete where it mattered — strength, intelligence, glory — Thersilochus found another battlefield: affection.

He became:

• The joker.

• The entertainer.

• The one who lightens the mood.

• The one who turns humiliation into laughter before it can wound him.

By making himself ridiculous on his own terms, he reclaimed control.

If they laughed with him, at least they were not laughing at him.

⸻

Self-Awareness:

What makes Thersilochus tragic — and compelling — is that he knows.

He knows:

• He is not impressive.

• He is not admired.

• He is remembered only when he is amusing.

Yet he continues, because laughter is the only proof he exists in the eyes of others.

This places him firmly in an archetype:

• Not cruel.

• Not noble.

• Not powerful.

• Simply… left behind.

⸻

Why He Seeks the Throne

His decision to pursue Penelope and the throne is not driven by lust or greed.

It is desperation.

For the first time in his life, Thersilochus wants to achieve something irreversible — something that cannot be overshadowed by a sibling’s success.

If he could win:

• He would no longer be “the funny one.”

• He would no longer be “the failure.”

• He would finally prove that he mattered.

Even if the world laughs at him — a king cannot be ignored.

⸻

Final Psychological Core

Thersilochus is not stupid.

He is emotionally starved.

His humor is a plea.

His loudness is a cry.

His foolishness is armor.

And like a rooster crowing at dawn, he announces himself every day —

not because he is powerful,
