Handle with Care was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Kassandra met Alkibiades at the Akrokorinth, who needed her help to deliver a package to a man named Bardas.
Dialogue
Kassandra took in the view from the Temple of Aphrodite atop the Akrokorinth and encountered Alkibiades.
- Kassandra: Nice view.
- Alkibiades: It just got a lot nicer. I was hoping to see you again.
- Kassandra: Alkibiades. What are you doing outside of Athens?
- Alkibiades: Someone like me is always on the move. I've docked my ship in every "port"!
- Kassandra: I'm sure you have.
- Alkibiades: If you're here for more than the view, I have a task for you. It is crucial this package gets to its proper recipient. It's not from me, but a man named Diodoros.
- Kassandra: I'll help, but it's only that little box?
- Alkibiades: One should never judge something by its size, you know. A small thing may very well make a huge impact.
(If players asked "Why do you have this package?")
- Kassandra: You said this package isn't from you. Why do you have it, then?
- Alkibiades: It simply came into my hands, that's all. Diodoros asked for my help, like I'm asking for yours now.
- Kassandra: Why can't this Diodoros deliver it himself?
- Alkibiades: You're a curious one, aren't you? Some questions don't have answers. Sometimes things just... are.
(If players asked "What's your favorite 'port'?")
- Kassandra: You've traveled a lot - where's your favorite place to go?
- Alkibiades: Oh, a personal question... interesting.
- Alkibiades: The world is filled with beautiful places. To pick my favorite would be like picking my favorite hetaera. I could do it, but the answer changes based on my mood.
(If players asked "I should get going.")
- Kassandra: All right. Who am I giving the package to?
- Alkibiades: There's a man named Bardas near the Korinthian military fort. He's one of their stronger... assets.
- Kassandra: And I just tell him it's from you?
- Alkibiades: No, from Diodoros. Don't forget. Diodoros.
Kassandra infiltrated the Akrokorinth Fort and entered Bardas's office.
- Bardas: You aren't the misthios I sent for. What do you want?
- Kassandra: This is for you.
- Bardas: Give it here.
Kassandra handed over the package and Bardas unwrapped it.
- Bardas: Is this some kind of joke? This is a cast of someone's dick!
- Bardas: What's this engraving? "This is for your wife Thelia, for when she starts to miss me."
- Bardas: Tell me now! Who sent this?
- Kassandra: A man named Alkibiades gave it to me.
- Bardas: Alkibiades? Just because Perikles took him in and he's friends with important people, he thinks he can do whatever he wants. I won't let him get away with this!
- Kassandra: It's from me, Bardas, can't you tell?
- Bardas: Do you think this is a joke? You'll pay for that!
- Kassandra: Someone doesn't have a sense of humor.
Her mission complete, Kassandra returned to Alkibiades at the Temple of Aphrodite to tell him the outcome.
- Alkibiades: I was just starting to miss you. I hope you delivered the package.
- Kassandra: Bardas threatened to kill Diodoros when I told him. I also wasn't expecting the package to be... well... that.
- Alkibiades: It was a nice surprise, wasn't it? I can make another one for you, too, if you'd like.
- Kassandra: Another one? You-
- Alkibiades: It was mine, yes. It looked good, didn't it? I needed to get Diodoros out of the way, and now he will be. I impress myself sometimes.
- Kassandra: Whatever you say.
- Alkibiades: Why don't we let our bodies do the talking? Surely you had thoughts of it as well when you saw the cast of me...
- Kassandra: Here? Before the gods?
- Alkibiades: Let's make an offering.
- Kassandra: I'd like to see the gods stop us.
- Alkibiades: I have a feeling they'd prefer to watch.
Alkibiades and Kassandra shared a moment in the temple. Kassandra emerged a while later, followed by Alkibiades.
- Kassandra: I'd say we gave the gods a good show.
- Alkibiades: I couldn't agree more. I'd love an encore soon.
Alkibiades left.
- Kassandra: I'm not interested.
- Alkibiades: A shame... Aphrodite would have loved it. Maybe another time.
- Kassandra: I told Bardas that... it came from you.
- Alkibiades: You did what? I specifically told you to say it was from Diodoros.
- Alkibiades: Now I have to come up with another plan. It took me a long time to make that final cast.
- Kassandra: Wait, so it was yours?
- Alkibiades: Yes, that impressive specimen was mine. I really wish you hadn't told him that. You can go now. I need to think.
- Kassandra: I thought I'd make a joke and tell him it was mine, but he didn't laugh.
- Alkibiades: Why would you do that? Bardas is an angry, emotional man. I hoped to get rid of Diodoros, but now you've ruined that.
- Kassandra: If you wanted to get rid of Diodoros, then that package wasn't from him after all.
- Alkibiades: Of course not. It was a perfect plan, but now I have to come up with something else. Don't think I'll ever make a cast for you now.
Outcome
Alkibiades returned to Athens to hatch more political schemes. In each of these, she would have a knack for showing up at the exact moment he required her skills.
Trivia
- The choice here only affects a chance to sleep with Alkibiades. The quest rewards and XP are the same, and telling Bardas the truth does not have a long-term impact on the health and wellbeing of Alkibiades.
