Unplanned Parenthood was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Anais:I was just thinking about how I could possibly repay you for bringing Arion home to me.
Kassandra:You owe me nothing.
Anais:Thank you. You're a true friend, Kassandra. Although, if there is one more favor I could ask of you...
Kassandra:Anything.
Kassandra:I'm sure I could think of a few things.
Anais:Name your price, misthios.
Kassandra:All this time together, and you haven't shown me where you sleep.
Anais:I'll show you a better spot, but we won't be sleeping.
Kassandra and Anais embraced and kissed. Cut to black.
Kassandra:Your appetite is insatiable.
Anais:You've awakened a part of me I thought I'd lost. I know you've already done so much for me. But if there's just one more thing you could do...
Kassandra:I'm not sure I can stand up.
Kassandra:I want your lips. We have so much lost time to make up for.
Anais:That's a lot of kissing. Better get started.
Kassandra and Anais embraced and kissed. Cut to black.
Kassandra:Your appetite is insatiable.
Anais:You've awakened a part of me I thought I'd lost. I know you've already done so much for me. But if there's just one more thing you could do...
Kassandra:I'm not sure I can stand up.
Kassandra:One item of clothing, for ever act of kindness performed.
Anais:By my count that's two. You can have my sandals. But if you want to earn more, there is one more thing you can do for me.
Kassandra:Fine. What is it?
Kassandra:Most people I do favors for pay me in drachmae.
Anais:I don't have much, but if you could do me one more favor, I'd be glad to pay you in chickens.
Kassandra:Anything.
Anais:Arion wants to be a mighty warrior. But I can't lose any more of my family to war.
Kassandra:If Arion learns to fight, he can protect you and the farm.
Anais: I can't work this farm alone. He won't listen to me, but he looks up to you. I can see it in his eyes.
Kassandra:I'll talk to him. But I don't think he's as fond of me as you are.
Anais:You flatter yourself. Just show him how to plant seeds, burn some old grass, maybe slaughter a few chickens... it will seem more exciting coming from you.
Kassandra:I don't think I'm ready to teach your son how to farm just yet
Talk to her again to accept and continue.
Find Arion and have a chat. You have two separate options here; teach him to fight, or teach him to farm. Your decisions will influence how A Night in Tegea will play out.
Kassandra:Hello Arion.
Arion:Hello.
Kassandra:What's wrong?
Arion:I miss my pater.
Kassandra:Want to talk about it?
Arion:No.
Kassandra:OK. You don't have to talk. But you can listen if you want.
Arion:I guess.
Kassandra:I lost my father when I was young. I ran far, far away. My only friend in the world was Ikaros. One day, a bully threw a rock and nearly broke his wing.
Arion:What did you do?
Kassandra:I cut off his fingers with this.
Arion:The spear of Leonidas. Can I hold it?
Kassandra:You can, but first I need you to do me a favor. Your mother needs you.
Arion:You're going to train me to be a mighty warrior?
Kassandra:I will. I think you'd both benefit from having someone around here who can fight.
Arion:I'm going to be the fiercest warrior you've seen! I'll cut my enemies into pieces.
Kassandra:Stay close and pay attention. I won't have you injuring yourself.
Kassandra begins with archery training;
Kassandra:First, a warrior must be resolute in their decision to kill. When you're face to face with the enemy, you cannot hesitate.
Kassandra:Hesitation hastens the grave. My mother taught me that.
Arion:How often should I train?
Kassandra:All day. Every day. And when your hand starts to bleed, switch hands.
Complete the archery training
Arion:What weapons should I use?
Kassandra:For now we're going to find you a wooden sword.
Collect a stick from nearby.
Kassandra:Here, this should do.
Return to Arion.
Kassandra:If you're going to learn to fight, you need to use all your senses to anticipate your enemy's every move.
Arion:How'm I supposed to know that?
Kassandra:By taking in the enemy before you and trusting your instincts. Watch, I'm going to swing at you from the right side. I want you to defend yourself.
Arion:OK. I'm ready!
Round one!
Arion dodges.
Kassandra:Very good!
Arion:I blocked the Eagle Bearer! I'm the greatest warrior who ever lived!
Kassandra:Don't get cocky. The moment a warrior gets too proud is the moment they get cut down. This time I'm going to attack from the left.
Arion:Bring it on!
Arion:Hey no fair! You said you were going to punch right!
Kassandra:I also said you need to use all your senses. You heard me say right, but you should have seen me go left. Let's try again, and listen carefully - I'm going to attack you from the left.
Arion:OK.
Round two!
Arion dodges again.
Kassandra:You're a fast learner!
Arion:I wish pater could see me now.
Arion gets mad.
Arion:You lied to me!
Kassandra:And you're not paying attention. Don't let what you hear distract you from what's actually happening right in front of you.
Arion: What happened to the bully whose fingers you cut off?
Kasssandra:He went and got his brothers. They beat me pretty badly.
Arion:You didn't have any friends to protect you?
Kassandra:Not until a little girl stood between me and those boys, and with the rage of Ares, screamed at them to leave me alone.
Arion:Really? A girl? Who?
Anais:That little girl was me.
Arion:Whoa, mater!Kassandra taught me to be a mighty warrior like you.
Anais:She did what?
Kassandra:You wanted me to teach the boy. I can't teach what I don't know. But what I did teach him, he can -
Anais:He can go to war and die like his father! Like my husband.
Kassandra:I know you've been through a lot, but you can't protect the boy by living in the past.
Anais:I thought bringing you here would help us have a better future. I thought if you showed an interest in the farm, he'd get excited and maybe give up on becoming a warrior. It was wrong of me to put that burden on your shoulders. I'm sorry.
Kassandra:I did what I thought was best.
Anais:Best for who, you?
Kassandra:Best for both of you. Anyone can learn to use a plow, but with the tools I gave him, he can -
Anais:He can go to war and die like his father! Like my husband.
Kassandra:I know you've been through a lot, but you can't protect the boy by living in the past.
Anais:I thought bringing you here would help us have a better future. I thought if you showed an interest in the farm, he'd get excited and maybe give up on becoming a warrior. It was wrong of me to put that burden on your shoulders. I'm sorry.
Kassandra:Your mother wants you to be a farmer, and that's what I'm going to teach you.
Arion:But farming is so boring! I want to be a warrior, like you.
Kassandra:Whenever I see the sun rise, I'm never sure I'll get to see it set. I walk away from the people I love knowing it might be the last time I ever see them again. Is that the life you want?
Kassandra:Study Homer if you want to learn to put people in the ground. But study Hesiod and you'll learn to grow things out of it.
Arion:Bor-ing!
Kassandra finishes showing Arion how to harvest and they move onto the next task.
Kassandra:And now we're going to burn some bushes.
Arion:Why?
Kassandra:For new life to grow, we need to clear away the old.
Arion:Why?
Kassandra:Because they choke the earth, stopping new plants from growing.
Arion:Why?
Kassandra:Because.
With the grass burning complete, Kassandra and Arion prepare for the final task.
Kassandra:Now I'm going to show you how to kill a chicken.
Arion:But I love chickens.
Kassandra:If you're going to feed your family, you're going to have to sacrifice a few chickens. You don't have to kill any today, but watch closely how I do it - clean and precise.
Kill the chickens and talk to Arion again.
Arion: What happened to the bully whose fingers you cut off?
Kasssandra:He went and got his brothers. They beat me pretty badly.
Arion:You didn't have any friends to protect you?
Kassandra:Not until a little girl stood between me and those boys, and with the rage of Ares, screamed at them to leave me alone.
Arion:Really? A girl? Who?
Anais:That little girl was me.
Arion: Mater! Kassandra taught me how to be a farmer... But you could teach me how to be brave.
Anais:Maybe one day I will.
Arion:Yeah. She taught me about Hesiod. She taught me to burn the old 'cause it chokes the new, and then she killed a bunch of chickens!
