Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After arriving in Ithaca, the real reason why the great hero Odysseus himself (as a beggar) went to Eumaeus' hut first rather than heading to his palace is because he wants to know if his servants remain loyal to him. He also wants to find out if his wife, Penelope, did not betray him.
