The Plan

After discussing many things with my father after his miraculous return, we decided that the only thing determining out fates were the suitors, and that they must be defeated. We constructed a well thought out plan, and if it was followed as such, then the outcome would be more than satisfying! To start, my father would pose as a beggar and own the suitors in the bow and arrow contest. While he distracted them, I would go to the room where we have the armor and weapons and secure them inside of it, making sure that we had enough for us. This would ensure that there was no chance of survival for the suitors.

To start it all off, we are going to hold the suitors in the great room and set up twelve axes, the point of the competition being to shoot the arrows through all the handles using my father's giant bow which is almost impossible to use, let alone string. Afterwards, the battle will begin, my father and I against all the suitors. I'm hoping that afterwards my father and I will once again rule Ithaca with my mother, Penelope. If all goes well, things will finally be the way they are meant to be. If you have any suggestions that could make our plan easier or more efficient, comment!
