I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name?
This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given.
The Korinth theater

The Korinth theater was an amphitheatre located by the Temple of Apollo in Korinth, Greece during the 5th century BCE.

History

During the Peloponnesian War, Anthousa, the leader of the local hetaerae, sought to kill the man known only as the Monger. He had over the years claimed control of the city, and Anthousa tasked the Spartan misthios Kassandra to kill him, demanding her to execute the Monger in public at the theater for all the people to see, as per "the Korinthian way."[1]

Behind the scenes

In Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, the theater is one of the two places where the Monger may face his end. The other is the Sacred Cave. If the theater is chosen, the Monger's death is public enough for the Archon of Arkadia, Lagos, to learn of it. This in turn will result in Lagos' death. The publicity of the Monger's death at the theater will also trigger the impact quest "Grieving Widow To Be".

Unlike in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, in the novel the Monger is killed in his warehouse by Kassandra and Brasidas with the help of Roxana and Erinna, two of Anthousa's hetaerae who had been captured. The Monger's remains were then displayed publicly at the theater against Brasidas' wishes.[2]
