At once she prayed intensely to Poseidon:
“Hear me, Sea-lord, you who embrace the earth—
don’t deny our wishes, bring our prayers to pass!
First, then, to Nestor and all his sons grant glory.
Then to all these Pylians, for their splendid rites
grant a reward that warms their gracious hearts.
And last, Poseidon, grant Telemachus and myself
safe passage home, the mission accomplished
that sped us here in our rapid black ship."

Why are the Pylians having a feast in honor of Poseidon when Telemachus arrives at Nestor’s palace?

Poseidon is also at the palace and it is customary to honor gods when they visit.
Nestor takes his role as king seriously and honors the gods frequently for the sake of his people.
Poseidon has created an ocean storm and the people are trying to make it stop with a feast.
It is Poseidon’s birthday and the Pylians are celebrating.
