What Trojan War Era Woman Are You?

[calliopes_pen]

Penelope -- The long-suffering wife of Odysseus.
She was awarded to Odysseus by her uncle for
the Ithacans idea of the Oath of Tyndareus.
While Odysseus was at war, many suitors wished
to marry Queen Penelope. She kept them at bay
by saying she would choose one after she
finished weaving the Shroud of Laertes. Each
day she wove the shroud, and each night she
unraveled it. After twenty years, Odysseus
returned to Ithaca in disguise to protect
himself from the suitors, who had since
realized Penelopes trick. Penelope presented
his old bow to the suitors, telling them she
would marry the man who could bend it. When
only Odysseus himself succeeded, she knew her
husband had returned. After his death,
Penelope was made immortal by Circe and sent to
the Islands of the Blest.
