Answer:

Odysseus' greatest desire was to return to the arms of his two loves: Penelope (his wife) and Telemachos (his son).

Step-by-step explanation:

Ulysses had arrived in the land of the Phaeacians, whose king was Alkynus. By manipulation of the gods, Ulysses ended up being protected by NausĂ­caa, daughter of the king. Ulysses was received in the palace with the honors of a visitor. The slaves washed their hands and offered them drinks and food. Alkino, like all the Greeks at that time, every time he saw a foreigner he wondered if he was not one of the gods, and so he treated him very well. But Ulysses said that he was a mortal and that his greatest desire was to return home to be with his wife and son.
