Home is the Hunter
“Across the stage, a spot of light strengthens, and ATHENA, Goddess of Reason, limps delicately into view. She wears a long white pleated robe as a Goddess should, but the long scarf attached to one shoulder is trailing, and the circlet of golden leaves on her high-piled hair is a little askew. She looks exhausted.
ATHENA (Sighing, as she looks back over her shoulder) Oh, come on, Ulysses! You’ve rushed all the way from the harbour, not a thought in your head, nothing but silly emotions. “I’m ho...me, I’m home!” you kept saying. Then, “What’s wrong, what’s wrong?” you kept asking.
(Her voice changes from joy to worry, as she mimics ULYSSES, who enters and halts, looking across at the shack. He is a tall man, handsome, in his late thirties. A long rough cape is pushed back from his shoulders, to show a simple tunic, a plain leather belt, an inconspicuous knife at his waist. He carries a battered hat in one hand.) Well, you’re right on both counts, my friend. You are home.MoreLess
