Setting the Stage

Setting the Stage was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
==Description==
In Elis, Kassandra met the actor Thespis again.
==Dialogue==
Passing near the theater, Kassandra heard a familiar voice.
*Thespis: Look at all these people. What do they need in their lives? Some excitement. A little magic.
*Rhodanthe: And you think you can deliver that?
*Thespis: Magic.
Kassandra approached them.
*Kassandra: Thespis? Are you acting in another play?
*Thespis: Kar, Kal... Kassandra! Aristophanes' friend! And my friend too. I'd be nowhere without your support.
*Kassandra: I suppose if I hadn't carried you out, you might still be in that tavern.
*Thespis: On the floor!
The women were not amused. Rhodanthe spoke up.
*Rhodanthe: Thespis had this "brilliant" idea to put on a play in this town. He's got a reputation as a great actor, so I thought, "this could be a huge success." I'm beginning to think I thought wrong.
*Thespis: No, no, everything is under control. You keep an eye on the ticket sales, my darling Rhodanthe, and my friend Kassandra will take care of everything else!
*Kassandra: I promise you, I know nothing about theater.
*Thespis: Don't be so modest. You'll be known as the hero who made "Leonidas and His 300 Spartans" the play of the century!
*Kassandra: The play is about King Leonidas? You know, my family—
*Thespis: Your family can come, of course. I'm sure they'll be proud to see you. Just help me tell that glorious hero's tale.
(Accept – I'll help put on your play about Leonidas.)
*Kassandra: I'll help Thespis put on the play. The story of Leonidas must have its due.
*Rhodanthe: Very well then. I expect you to deliver.
Kassandra nodded at her and then turned her attention back to Thespis.
*Kassandra: So what do you need done?
*Thespis: Bring wine. Not for me, for our audience!
*Kassandra: So you think the audience won't listen to the tale of Leonidas unless they're drunk?
*Thespis: They won't be drunk, just appreciative!
("Where can I find the wine?")
*Kassandra: Where are you keeping the wine?
Thespis rubbed his head.
*Thespis: Well, I had wine. But then the local military commander commandeered... Heh, I should put that in the script. "The Persian Commander commandeered the, uh... casks." That's it.
*Kassandra: Then I'll have to re-commandeer it myself. Where is this commander?
Rhodanthe spoke up.
*Rhodanthe: He kept the expensive wine and left the rest for his soldiers. An ordinary audience might be content with the cheaper drink.
*Kassandra: If we serve the best wine, we could get a more sophisticated audience. It might be harder to get to, but worth it.
*Thespis: You speak my language! Better wine could mean a more generous crowd.
("Where can I find the wine?")
*Kassandra: Where are the two places the wine is being stored?
*Thespis: Most of it is in the Stable of Ares. But the good stuff? That's in Demiurgi Fort.
("I'll go get the wine.")
*Kassandra: I'll take care of everything.
She left the two and headed to get the wine.
