The Odyssey
Chapter 1: At Home
It had been ten years since the Great War ended. Some of the heroes from that war had come back home, or died due to extremely bad weather, but there was one hero that no one knew what happened his name was Richard but everyone called him Dick. He had a wife named Starfire and they had a son named Garfield, who a newborn when his father left but is now twenty.
Ever since he had delayed coming home there had been a lot of people trying to get Starfire to become their wife. There were several suitors and the most persistent was one of Dick's enemies whose code name was Red X and his real name was unknown. The suitors were fawning and flirting with Starfire but she didn't return any of their affections. They also dishonored their home. They would throw food on the wall, make mess in the halls and be cruel to the servants. They also were now threatening Garfield's life because rightfully he was suppose to be the next heir and they wanted to be it so you can guess where this is going.
She had told them that as soon as she finished making a garment for her father-in-law. She would weave it during the day but at night she would unweave what she had just done. They caught onto it soon enough and they insisted she finish and chose. So she had nearly finished it and the days were closing in until the day she had to pick one.
Starfire didn't want to choose any of them due to their bad character and their personalities in general. Not to mention there was still no word about her husband and what had become of him. She resisted mainly because she hoped that he would return to her and they could be a family once again.
