Portion Control was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan in 2018 through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Kassandra came across a Spartan soldier near the Farm of Tripodiskos.
Dialogue
- Kassandra: Could be one of Stentor's scouts. Looks like he's run into problems.
Kassandra approached the Spartan soldier near a destroyed convoy.
- Dolios: I'll gut every last Athenian responsible for this. Fucking cowards. Once they're dead, Stentor will know I'm worthy of fighting by his side.
Kassandra spoke to the soldier.
- Kassandra: What happened here?
- Dolios: What business is it of yours, misthios? Do you know anything about this?
- Kassandra: I'm a professional and a friend.
- Dolios: What's that supposed to mean?
- Kassandra: If it had been me, I'd have been smart enough to try and hide the evidence.
- Dolios: Fair point. Whoever did this was brazen and foolish... Leaving it to be so easily discovered.
- Kassandra: Or they wanted to send a message.
- Kassandra: Stentor sent me. I'm here to help wherever I can.
- Dolios: Stentor sent you?
- Kassandra: Sparta doesn't fully control Megaris... yet. It's easier for me to move freely in certain areas of Megaris than a Spartan.
- Dolios: The Athenians have proven more resilient here than expected, but they will not stand...
- Kassandra: ...Before Sparta, yes—I've heard the speeches. But until that glorious day comes, we should find out what happened here.
- Dolios: Do you have any ideas?
- Kassandra: Not yet but I will. I should get a closer look to figure out what happened here.
Kassandra investigated the bodies covered in sheets.
- Kassandra: These were professional soldiers, slaughtered to a man. I don't think bandits could have done this...
Kassandra investigated the destroyed supply carts.
- Kassandra: The supplies are missing. They can't have gone far though... they didn't use the carts.
Kassandra investigated some tracks near the cart.
- Kassandra: Looks like they went this way into the forest. I don't think I'll find anything else. I should report back.
Kassandra returned to Dolios.
- Dolios: So was it the Athenians?
- Kassandra: I found some fragments of green crystal...
- Dolios: Bandits then! The mountains here are riddled with caves, and the war has made them brazen.
- Kassandra: If it was Athenians, they would have taken the carts as well as the supplies... And bandits, they wouldn't have stood a chance against trained Spartans.
- Dolios: What are you saying?
- Kassandra: Nothing about this adds up...
- Dolios: In what way?
- Kassandra: There's no bodies, at least not any assailants. Athenians would have taken the carts and their dead, but bandits would have left their fallen in the dust.
- Dolios: Then who did it?
- Kassandra: I'm not sure. Whoever did this went into the forest... So I'll start by looking there.
Kassandra headed into the forest. With Ikaros' help, she found a cave southwest of the Grave of Tereus.
- Kassandra: There's food being cooked near here. There they are!
Kassandra entered the cave and found a group of civilians with a bunch of supplies.
- Kassandra: Is this a private gathering, or can anyone join?
- Neaera: Wha... What are y... Please, please just leave.
- Kassandra: You don't look like murderers, was that the Spartans' mistake?
- Neaera: What? Wait! No, please you don't understand!
- Kassandra: What's to understand? It all seems perfectly clear.
- Neaera: Please, let me plead our case?
- Kassandra: You are murderers and thieves, and deserve no better.
- Neaera: Please, no! You don't understand, it was a mercenary that killed the soldiers!
Kassandra fought Neaera and the villagers.
- Neaera: Please, no!
- Civilian: Mercenaries attacked the wagons, not us!
- Neaera: We were just hungry...
Kassandra eliminated the villagers and returned to Dolios.
- Dolios: Kassandra Did you find the ones responsible?
- Kassandra: I found your supplies with a bunch of hungry Megarians.
- Dolios: And?
- Kassandra: They won't trouble you again.
- Kassandra: You'd better tell me why I shouldn't just kill you and return the goods.
- Neaera: Please, I'll tell you anything you want to know.
- Kassandra: You're the sorriest band of thieves I've ever seen.
- Neaera: By the gods, no! We're citizens of Megara. Please, show mercy. This war has already cost us dearly.
- Kassandra: Like the mercy you showed those Spartan soldiers?
- Neaera: I, we... We just took some food. Hyrkanos told us to take it, said he'd make it easy for us.
- Kassandra: Hyrkanos?
- Neaera: Yes, the mercenary. He said he'd provide food, told us the Athenians would never let their people go hungry.
- Kassandra: Explain yourselves! It's not wise to anger the Spartans.
- Neaera: Please, we're not thieves. This is our food, our crops. They took it, left us with nothing! Our children are starving...
- Kassandra: So you repay theft with murder? A fine lesson for your children.
- Neaera: Murder, no. Please, we never harmed anyone.
- Civilian: A misthios told us where to find the food. Everyone was already dead!
- Kassandra: Enough, I didn't come here for debate. It's too late for talk now. I came to find who's behind this crime against Sparta.
- Kassandra: There is only one just punishment for your crime.
- Civilian: It was our food to begin with!
- Neaera: We either die here by your hand, or slowly starve later...
If I'm to die, I would rather die fighting.
Kassandra eliminated the villagers and returned to Dolios.
- Dolios: Kassandra Did you find the ones responsible?
- Kassandra: I found your supplies with a bunch of hungry Megarians.
- Dolios: And?
- Kassandra: They won't trouble you again.
- Kassandra: Stand aside, you don't need to die today. I'm returning the supplies to the Spartans.
- Neaera: Then you will do so over our dead bodies!
- Kassandra: Don't be stupid. Take some of the food, enough to get by. I'll say I killed you and claimed what was left. They will be satisfied.
- Neaera: But the food, what of our families?!
- Kassandra: Your families will not benefit from your death. Accept my offer and don't steal again. It won't be me who comes for you next time.
- Neaera: Yes, misthios... Thank you.
Hurry! Take what you can carry and go. Quick.
- Dolios: Kassandra Did you find the ones responsible?
- Kassandra: I found your supplies with a bunch of hungry Megarians.
- Dolios: And?
- Kassandra: You stole that food from them. They were starving.
- Dolios: The supplies were essential for the war and ridding Megara of the Athenians.
- Kassandra: Hungry Megarians are the least of your worries, but there's something else. Have you heard of a mercenary called Hyrkanos?
- Dolios: Hyrkanos... Yes, he is working for the Athenians, so the rumours go.
- Kassandra: This is all his doing.
- Dolios: These mercenaries are persistent, I'll give them that. You've done well here, but if you really want to help Sparta, I have a task for you.
- Kassandra: What do you have in mind?
- Dolios: Hunt him down! Show him that no mercenary dog will interfere with Sparta's plans.
- Kassandra: Since you have such a high opinion of mercenaries, why even send me?
- Dolios: I'm sorry... It's just this man Hyrkanos is like a thorn in our foot. He's a menace to all Spartans here. Please, will you help us?
- Kassandra: I'll do it. If he's this much trouble, I take it there's a sizeable reward?
- Dolios: Of course! Just think of how much he'll have on him with all the drachmae Athens have given him to thwart our plans.
- Kassandra: I suppose you're right... Any idea where to start looking?
- Dolios: He could be anywhere. Most likely, he's nestled up close to the Athenians. We've sent out a couple of patrols, but they never returned, and we can't spare any more men at this time.
- Kassandra: Sometimes you're better sending a woman, anyway.
Outcome
Kassandra decided the fate of the villagers who stole the supplies and reported to Dolios of the outcome.
