Mentor: An adviser, teacher, guide - usually an older experienced person guiding a younger novice. This is derived from the name of person Odysseus left to counsel his son (Telemakhos) when Odysseus went off to the Trojan War.
Then to Telemakhos the gray-eyed goddess (Athena) appeared again with Mentor's form and voice.
Mentor I noted going aboard - or a god who looked like Mentor. The strange thing is, I saw Lord Mentor here in the first light yesterday - although he sailed five days ago for Pylos.
