- Kassandra: Watch yourself. That's not my line of work.
- Auxesia: Forgive me. I'm amazed the gods would send someone so well-suited to help me, but who is also so appealing to my physically.

Age is Just a Number 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 an old woman outside the Chora in Delphi.
Dialogue
- Auxesia: A misthios! Well, aren't you a sight to my aged eyes. Young. Energetic. Perhaps I should just pay for your body instead of your help.
- Kassandra: All things get better with age, don't they? Even you.
- Auxesia: The Oracle said that if I'm to live a long and happy life. I need to stay young... at heart. But I musn't lose focus. I need your help more than your magnificent body.
- Kassandra: I'm glad to hear it.
- Auxesia: Koragos, my husband, is having some difficulties keeping up with my hunger for... pleasure.
- Kassandra: I imagine any man would.
- Auxesia: Oh, I have many lovers, but he's my soulmate. When we're together, it's indescribable.
- Kassandra: Then don't describe it.
- Auexesia: When we were younger, we would run into the moonlight forest, shed our clothes, and pleasure each other until sunrise. Our howls of ecstasy would echo throughout the valleys.
- Kassandra: By the gods, woman, I said spare me the details.
- Auxesia: I wasn't a tough-looking mercenary to be so squeamish about a little fun.
- Kassandra: I hope I'm as feisty as you at your age.
- Auxesia: I'm feistier now than I've ever been.
- Kassandra: What does this have to do with me?
- Auxesia: I've learned of a powerful elixir, which if consumed will give someone the vigor and stamina of Eros. If you can gather me the ingredients, I can make it for my husband.
- Kassandra: All right, I'll find the ingredients... If you promise to keep your nocturnal activities to yourself.
- Auxesia: I have some drachmae, and Koragos has more. If you can bring me some bear scrotum and a deer tongue, I can make the elixir.
- Kassandra: Oh, is that all you need?
- Auxesia: Don't worry, I'll reward you well. I'm sure Koragos will be thankful also.
- Kassandra: Where can I find a bear near here?
- Auxesia: I heard there's a cave near the sanctuary that a large male bear has claimed.
- Kassandra: Are there any deer nearby?
- Auxesia: This is Phokis, there's deer all over the place.
- Kassandra: This elixir sounds odd. Where did you learn about it?
- Auxesia: Why, the Pythia told me about it. She's so wise, solving a problem I didn't even know I'd have.
- Kassandra: I'll be back with the ingredients soon.
Kassandra travelled north to recover the items. She killed a bear and recovered its scrotum.
- Kassandra: This smells awful. Who would drink an elixir made from this?
She then killed a dear and recovered its tongue.
- Kassandra: What kind of elixir uses ingredients like this?
Kassandra returned to Auxesia in Delphi, who was now standing with an elderly man.
- Auxesia: Misthios, you're back. And not a moment too soon.
- Kassandra: I got what you asked for.
- Koragos: Who is this, Auxesia?
- Auxesia: This is the misthios who's going to reignite our spark, my love.
- Koragos: Oh no! We've been going through this, I can't satisfy you anymore. You're going to kill me with your lust.
- Auxesia: Nonsense. I'm going to make you an elixir that will give you the vigor of a man a fraction of your age.
- Koragos: Gods save me. I cannot do this anymore.
- Kassandra: By all the gods, will someone just pay me? If I hear any more of this talk I'm going to be sick.
- Auxesia: Bah! Young people. They don't understand true love. Here, this should be more than enough.
- Kassandra: My thanks.
- Auxesia: Come, Koragos. I'll mix the elixir. You get the oils ready.
- Kassandra: Your husband is tired. Allow me to satisfy your hunger.
- Auxesia: I've never been with a mercenary before. Very well, let's see what you're made of.
- Koragos: Did she... have fun?
- Kassandra: That should hold her for a few days at least.
- Koragos: Thank you, mithios. Here, take this as payment. You've more than earned it.
- Kassandra: I don't need any payment. I'm just glad I could help.
- Auxesia: You are too kind, misthios. The gods have truly blessed me by crossing our paths.
- Kassandra: You two have fun... but not too much fun.
Outcome
Kassandra helped Auxesia to recover ingredients needed for a elixir to satisfy her hunger for pleasure.
