In Homer he is the suitor who reads omens at their feasts and quietly disapproved of his fellows. He tries the bow first and fails. After the slaughter starts, he clasps Odysseus’s knees and begs for his life on the strength of his decency. Odysseus tells him a man who sat at his tables for years is no innocent, and takes his head off with a sword. [SPOILER: Even the relatively decent suitor dies.] Teilo cuts him because the moral fineness of the moment, sparing or not sparing the priest among the wolves, would slow the slaughter. The retelling needs the reckoning to land as a single hammer, not a series of judgments. Same instinct that cuts Amphinomus.
Leiodes
The soothsayer-suitor. The only one who never touched Penelope or insulted the house. Killed anyway. Cut from the retelling.
