			In 431 BCE, a teenage Aristophanes was one of the individuals invited by the statesman [[Perikles]] to attend a symposium at his [[Perikles' Residence\|villa]] in Athens. He attended the party which included his fellow playwrights [[Euripides]] and [[Sophokles]]. Due to Aristophanes' comical style of writing, Sophokles was not happy that Euripides associated himself with him. A while later, Aristophanes and Euripides met the ''[[Mercenary\|misthios]]'' [[Kassandra]], who came to the symposium to seek information for her [[Myrrine\|mother]]'s whhereabouts.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' – [[Perikles's Symposium]]</ref> Kassandra served him and Euripides drinks in exchange for information from the latter.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – [[Drink Up]]</ref>
