The Odysseus

Can anyone help me answer this question:

Does Athena play a vital role in Odysseus' homecoming, or could he have accomplished everything on his own? Use details from the poem to explain you thoughts.

I need it in a constructed response: Make sure you have properly structured your answer to this question. This is a formal response. Please do not use informal language! Use complete sentences, with proper grammar.

Yes, Athena played a vital role in Odysseus' homecoming. He couldn't have accomplished everything on his own if not for the divine power Athena assisted him with.

Explanation:

Athena the Daughter of Zeus and goddess of wisdom, purposeful battle, and the womanly arts, assisted Odysseus and Telemachus with her divine powers throughout the epic, and she speaks up for them in the councils of the gods on Mount Olympus. She often appears in disguise as Mentor, an old friend of Odysseus. Athena protects them with her shield and tries to make the suitors give up. She also helps him out of many tough situations, including his shipwreck.
