How Eurykleia kept Odysseus's a secret is a very hard thing that should be acknowledged. Here is Eurykleia, Odysseus's old nurse who has remained faithful to the family, who is trusted with the secret of Odysseus's identity. Eurykleia has seen everything that has been going on in the palace by the suitors and all of the mistreatment on her peers and more than likely herself. Most people in her shoes would want to go charging in at the suitors with this great warrior behind you and take the palace back. But instead she does as she is told and shows where her loyalty and trust is.
