Kassandra approached him. They walked towards a finely-dressed man deep in his cups, the dock foreman [[Ariston]]. He downed his drink.

He laughed it off in a drunken stupor. Kassandra crossed her arms.
*'''Kassandra:''' ''We've come to get those ships back.''
*'''Ariston:''' ''Why, would be my first question. But then I realized... I don't really care. Because you're a ''misthios''!''
He laughed at his drunken humor once more. Kassandra and Orontas exchanged glances.
*'''Ariston:''' ''Let bygones be bygones, my friend! We drink! Except for the mercenary. Now, sail away from me. Oh right, you can't!''

*'''Greek Soldier:''' Misthios'', no need for bloodshed. I just need you to come quietly, please. Releasing the stranded has angered the Tempest. Someone just needs to take responsibility, and everyone will be fine.''
*'''Orontas:''' ''Take me then. They have nothing to do with this. I'm the one you're after.''
Kassandra was upset by Orontas giving himself up. The soldier nodded to him and gestured him to follow. As the soldiers closed guard around Orontas, Kleta and Kassandra approached him.
*'''Orontas:''' ''We have done enough, there's no need to escalate this further. Promise me that you will see our plan through to the end.''

Description
Kassandra traveled to Pellene to meet with Orontas and reclaim the ships needed to escort the stranded out of Achaia.
Dialogue
Kassandra made her way to the dock near Shipwreck Cove, where some civilians were indulging in drink and song.
Kassandra approached him. They walked towards a finely-dressed man deep in his cups, the dock foreman Ariston. He downed his drink.
Ariston:More wine!
Orontas:Here's the man we're looking for, misthios.
Ariston: Chaire, chaire, my friend! I recognize you... I took your ships, didn't I? At the docks?
He laughed it off in a drunken stupor. Kassandra crossed her arms.
Kassandra:We've come to get those ships back.
Ariston:Why, would be my first question. But then I realized... I don't really care. Because you're a misthios!
He laughed at his drunken humor once more. Kassandra and Orontas exchanged glances.
Ariston:Let bygones be bygones, my friend! We drink! Except for the mercenary. Now, sail away from me. Oh right, you can't!
Kassandra:I think we got off on the wrong foot. I'm sure a smart man like you knows when to make a useful friend. If you help me, I'll help you.
Orontas glanced over at her and nodded approvingly. Ariston became slightly more lucid.
Ariston:Helping you would cost more than my left arm. If I am to risk incurring the Tempest's wrath, there should be a sizable benefit for me. I heard valuables can be found at Shipwreck Cove, not far from here. Or... I could always use more drachmae. You can buy wine with drachmae.
