Learning patience and humility is which part of odysseus's epic journey?

A) his road of trials

B) his supreme ordeal

C) his transformation

D) his return home

C) His transformation. When Odysseus finally returns home, he discovers there are multiple suitors who are taking advantage of his home in an effort to wed his wife Penelope who slowly becomes skeptical of Odysseus's survival. If Odysseus rushes in immediately, he would be killed by the large number of suitors. In order to win the upper hand, he disguises himself as an old man in order to calculate and plan out how to get rid of the suitors and reveal his true self to his wife. This involved great patience and humility, as being an elder man of a lowly status gave him a sense of humiliation from the treatment of those around him.
