Kassandra can give credit where it is due: if it's not her new home, at least this place is more interesting than Kephallonia. Of course, there are piles of rocks more interesting than Kephallonia, so that is not granting much. It doesn't have the marble grandeur of Athens, but then Gazin, she assumes, also has not had a Perikles. And if it's not like Athens, that at least means she no longer has to pretend to understand Athenians.
During the daytime, she explores the markets and the interesting variety of things they have on sale, some familiar and others far less so. She kind of wants to try all the food, and she laughs at herself for the impulse. Even after all she's experienced in the last few years, she hasn't forgotten being poor and hungry. She's managed to have some of her drachmae converted into the currency this place uses, and soon she's happily chewing on some bread and a fruit she doesn't recognise that is absolutely delicious.
"This. This is good," she says, to nobody in particular.
(She's still not used to not having Ikaros to talk to.)
2. Exploring
As much as there is to explore in the city, there is also the forest. Kassandra considers herself as used to moving through a wide variety of terrains now, for all Kephallonia's options had been limited. She's travelled Hellas from one end to the other now, from forests to plains to the volcanic ruins of Thera. So shes confident when she goes out into the woods, and she soon finds her feet. There's wood to gather, animals to hunt, and fresh water to be found, all of which is good to know in case her situation becomes precarious.
She doesn't want to go back to being hungry if she can't find work.
But she does miss Ikaros; without the eagle's companionship her senses feel limited, and she also doesn't have anyone to help her hunt.
Which is why, half an hour later, she can be found kneeling next to an unconscious wolf. Once it wakes up, she can persuade it to be her companion for a while.
4. Wild card
In a clearing by the edge of the woods, Kassandra has stuffed some sacks with straw and set them up as targets. One is hanging from a tree, one is propped against a bush, and one is on the opposite side of the clearing.
Regretfully, she's had to set Hades' Bow aside, because she's not interested in setting fire to her targets and, inevitably, herself. (She's done it before, and she doesn't want to have to jump into a river to extinguish herself. It's embarrassing. She yelps.)
Instead, she's using a simple hunter's bow, and she sets herself a sort of circuit: first the target on the bush, then run to the tree and shoot that, then turn and shoot across the clearing.
Later, maybe she'll climb a tree and shoot from there.
