In a palace built on waiting, two children grow up learning how to survive absence.
Telemachus, son of Odysseus, lives in the shadow of a father turned legend.
Y/N, daughter of Polites, carries the kindness of a man who sailed away and never returned.
Taken in by Penelope after her mother's death, Y/N becomes family-woven into the halls of Ithaca, into Telemachus' life, into the quiet moments between fear and hope. Best friends since childhood, they understand each other in ways no one else can: the ache of missing a parent, the weight of responsibility too heavy for young shoulders, and the loneliness of growing up in a house that no longer feels safe.
When the suitors arrive, the palace turns dangerous. Telemachus grows watchful. Y/N grows cautious. Together, they create a single word-Starlight-a promise that if danger ever comes, they will find each other again.
As years pass, friendship softens into something deeper, unspoken but undeniable. When Telemachus leaves Ithaca on his mission, he kisses Y/N goodbye and asks her to stay safe. She promises. Fate has other plans.
After the fall of the suitors and the return of Odysseus, the truth comes to light-not through battle, but through bruises, tears, and a safeword whispered too late. In the aftermath, love becomes something careful and strong, built not on saving, but on staying.
This is a story about survival and healing, about found family and inherited kindness, about choosing tenderness in a world shaped by war.
It is about two people who waited, endured, and-together-learned how to live beyond the pain.
Because some epics aren't about the journey away.
They're about coming home.
