Oh how good it felt to finally come home and see my wife and son for the first time in twenty years! It was emotional for me to see so many men in my home fighting over my wife when i should be sitting next to her. They stole my food and drink and did not even have the heart to share with a beggar. My son had gone on a journey to find me and it warmed my heart to see that he did not believe that i was dead. I also saw that my wife had not given up home until recently. She completed weaving, she held onto hope for so long, un-weaving at night by torchlight. This showed me that she still loved me and wanted me to come home. I had hope that I would soon return home and she had hope for this too.
When grasped my bow for the first time in twenty years it also felt amazing. It gave me a feeling of power and strength when I showed those suitors who was the strongest of them. I must now finish my job and win my wife back from the suitors.
