Dressing up for Charon was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Kassandra reached the village mentioned by Timotheos, and identified the merchant who sells armor.
Kassandra:Found him!
She walked over to the merchant.
Kassandra: Chaire. Would you happen to have any Athenian armor in your shop? It's for Diokles's burial.
Street Vendor:Timotheos can buy his father's armor back if he likes. Won't be cheap though.
Kassandra:What do you mean?
Street Vendor:Diokles sold me his armor not too long ago.
Kassandra:Timotheos said his father's armor was stolen.
Street Vendor:Well, I have it here and I'm no thief. I also have another set of Athenian armor. Not as nice, but it'll do for the burial.
Kassandra:I'll take Diokles's armor.
Street Vendor:You'll find it in the chest upstairs. Pleasure doing business with you.
Kassandra found Diokles' Armor on the roof of the merchant's house.
Diokles's Armor Though clearly battle worn, Diokles's armor indicated his high military rank and was an example of fine craftsmanship.
Kassandra:I'll take the cheaper armor.
Street Vendor:Figures a mercenary would choose the cheap armor. Here you go.
Kassandra got a set of Standard Athenian Armor.
Standard Athenian Armor Standard Athenian armor worn by foot soldiers was fairly easy to come by at a low cost.

Kassandra:Diokles' armor should belong to his son. Hand it over.
Street Vendor: Laughs. You think you can threaten me? It's not like I store a set that valuable with my normal wares. You'll find it over my dead body.
Kassandra:That's a chance I'm willing to take.
Kassandra killed the merchant and found a set of Standard Athenian Armor on his body.
Standard Athenian Armor Standard Athenian armor worn by foot soldiers was fairly easy to come by at a low cost.
