King of the Phaeacians
A · Primary Presence Lock
Mature open-handed king — dignified beard, warm authority without tyranny, bronze and purple of Scheria. The face of highest xenia in the poem.

Throne, feast, and offer of conveyance — same facial lock
Seated with Arete at the central hearth — regal welcome, measuring the stranger with generous eyes.
At the banquet table — wine, song, and the promise of a ship home; king as host not warlord.
The decision to send Odysseus home — steady royal resolve, Phaeacian ships as gift of hospitality.
