|
| | Kassandra went over to a depressed farmer. |
| | |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' Chaire''. What is wrong, my friend?'' |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''Are you really the high-soaring Eagle Bearer?'' |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|Yes. I have come down from the heavenly heights.= |
| | |-|Well, I have an eagle. Sometimes he listens to me.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I have an eagle, Ikaros, who travels with me. But sometimes it's hard to know if I'm in charge or if he is.'' |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''So kind and humble. The grace of Artemis and the wisdom of Athena.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Well, uh, Priestess Hexione said you had a problem. Tell me.'' |
| | |
| | </tabber> |
| | |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''I have shamed myself. Normally I hunt for my family and to provide for the village. But the other day I slipped and wrenched my ankle badly. I can barely walk. I am unworthy of your attention.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''You are not at fault for your injury. Go on.'' |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''My daughter, [[Myrto]], insisted she would go into the woods and hunt for me. She's brave, but still inexperienced. She has been gone long, and I grow worried.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I'll find her.'' |
| | |
| | Kassandra went to the [[Forest of Pholos]], and search around. After a while, she spotted the little girl. |
| | |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''You must be Akato's daughter, Myrto.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Yes. Who are you?'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I am Kassandra.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''The Eagle Bearer?'' |
| | |
| | <Tabber> |
| | |-|Yes. I have come to protect and guide you.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''These woods can be dangerous for common folk. Your father grew worried about your absence and begged me to find you and keep you safe.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''I can't believe it! I hope you aren't disappointed in me.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''No, child. You honor your father.'' |
| | |
| | |-|I'm just a friend.= |
| | </Tabber> |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''I've tried to follow all his lessons, but hunting is hard! I've had no luck getting the special deer meat he wants. I'm worried he'll be so disappointed in me.'' |
| | |
| | <Tabber> |
| | |-|I'll do it. You run home.= |
| | |-|You just need a few pointers. Stay close to me.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''With a strong teacher like your father, I'm sure you know more than you think. Stay close to me, and maybe I can give you a few tips.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Thank you! You are so kind!'' |
| | |
| | </Tabber> |
| | |
| | She began to show Myrto how to hunt deer. |
| | |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''The trick to hunting is to find a spot where deer trails cross and to stand quietly downwind of that.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Pater says the same thing! I forgot to check the wind!'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' Quietly! |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Right. Sorry.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''We need to get deer neck meat?'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Yes, the priestesses asked pater for it special to celebrate your arrival. He was heartbroken not to be able to get it himself.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''How to the priestesses prepare it?'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Brushed with a pine branch dipped in the juice of sour grapes and plums and other godly herbs.'' |
| | |
| | After gathering some meat. |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''There we go. Deer neck for your father. See? Hard, but you can do this.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''You were amazing! I've learned so much!'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I will get the rest of the meat your father needs. Why don't you head home and tell Akatos what you've learned.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''I will. Thanks!'' |
| | |
| | She killed 6 more deer. Then returned to Akatos. |
| | |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''Eagle Bearer, I cannot thank you enough!'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Kassandra! Did you find enough meat?'' |
| | |
| | <Tabber> |
| | |-|It was no effort to provide for you.= |
| | |
| | |-|The woods were generous.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''The woods were generous, and [[Artemis]] guided my aim.'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Do you know Artemis?! You never said!'' |
| | *'''Akatos:''' ''Myrto! Contain yourself!'' |
| | *'''Myrto:''' ''Sorry, ''pater''.'' |
| | |
| | Kassandra bent down to her. |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''No, Myrto, I do not know Far-Shooting Artemis in the way you mean. But I know she looks kindly over hunters. Pay her respect and you'll soon hunt as well as your father.'' |
| | </Tabber> |
