	During the mid-440s BCE, the Monger had begun to take over Korinth, but he was firmly opposed by [[Myrrine]], a [[Sparta]]n woman who had come to the city, befriended the local ''[[hetaera]]'' [[Anthousa]], and resisted his power plays.

	When the Spartan ''[[Mercenary\|misthios]]'' [[Kassandra]] came to Korinth, she swiftly learned of the Monger's influence. His men were an army who mugged and shook people down in the streets of Korinth, and he targeted the ''hetaerae'' of the city for their access to a wealth of information as well as money. Due to this, the ''hetaerae'' fled with their leader Anthousa to the hill of [[Akrokorinth]].<ref name="To Find a Girl">''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – [[To Find a Girl]]</ref>		When the Spartan ''[[Mercenary\|misthios]]'' [[Kassandra]] came to Korinth, she swiftly learned of the Monger's influence.

	[[The Stalker]], one of the Monger's men, maintained the [[Abron House]] north of the [[Temple of Apollo, Korinth\|Temple]] of [[Apollo]]. It was a house where the Monger would give his victims his 'special treatment', involving chains, oils, and whipping until his victims bled. His latest target was [[Damalis]], one of Anthousa's ''hetaerae'', pressuring one of her [[Client (Odyssey)\|clients]] to lead her to the Abron House. Over the course of her investigation, Kassandra realized she's met the Monger before, in Phokis, as she recognized his handiwork. She ultimately managed to help Damalis avoid the fate the Monger had planned for her with the help of [[Phoibe]].<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – [[To Help a Girl]]</ref>		[[The Stalker]], one of the Monger's men, maintained the [[Abron House]] north of the [[Temple of Apollo, Korinth\|Temple]] of [[Apollo]].

	Around the same time as Kassandra, a letter from the [[Sage (Cult of Kosmos)\|Sage]] of the Peloponnesian League branch of the Cult reached the Monger, telling him that a Spartan soldier by the name of [[Brasidas]] had been sent to Korinth. The [[Pausanias of Sparta\|Sage]] considered Brasidas to have been a problem long enough, and tasked the Monger to kill him.<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – [[Cult of Kosmos clues#Pausanias\|Sage Letter to the Monger]]</ref>		Around the same time as Kassandra, a letter from the [[Sage (Cult of Kosmos)\|Sage]] of the Peloponnesian League branch of the Cult reached the Monger, telling him that a Spartan soldier by the name of [[Brasidas]] had been sent to Korinth.
