Minotour de Force was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
In the town of Lato, Kassandra's attention was drawn by the exclamations of Leiandros, promising glory, honour and drachmae to whoever managed to slay the Minotaur.
Dialogue[]
In Lato, Kassandra spotted a group of townsfolk crowding around Leiandros.
- Leiandros: Who among you is afraid?!
Who among you is frail or weak?!
Who among you... IS STRONG?!
Then I say prove yourselves! Come face-to-face with He of the Blood-Soaked Hooves! He of the Entrail-Splattered Horns! You know his name, you know his roar! The Beast, the Myth... THE MINOTAAAAAUR!!!
Maximum of three members per Minotaur hunting party; purchase of Minotaur-themed merchandise is mandatory before proceeding; no legendary warriors, pregnant heroes, or legitimate gods (demi, semi, or otherwise) are eligible to fight the Minotaur; and no pushing—you'll all get a chance at dismemberment.
Kassandra approached Leiandros.
- Leiandros: Ah, a mighty specimen approaches! Are you ready for honor? For glory?! For certain death?!
- Kassandra: I'm ready for two-thirds of that.
- Leiandros: Then you seek combat with... THE MINOTAUR!
- Kassandra: The Minotaur's already dead, by my hand.
- Leiandros: You killed the Minotaur?!
The man laughed.
- Leiandros: I'm sorry my friend, you're very mistaken! Some scam artist fooled you with flame-lit corridors and flimsy costumes! The 100% genuine and completely real Minotaur lives here! And, uh, you better believe it!
- Kassandra: No self-respecting Minotaur would live in Lato.
- Leiandros: He does.
- Kassandra: Here?
- Leiandros: Yes.
- Kassandra: ... In Lato?
- Leiandros: Yes.
- Kassandra: This Lato?
- Leiandros: I assure you, the beast lives here, and he wants nothing more than a wealthy - uh, a worthy opponent to battle.
And you'd get to take home the Prize of Pephka!
(Accept – I'll kill your Minotaur.)
- Kassandra: Your Minotaur must die.
- Leiandros: Sounds like we have... another contender!
The crowd cheered as Leiandros sold the scene to them.
- Leiandros: It's time for the Trials of the Minotaur.. Pre-Trials.
(If players choose ""Pre-Trials"?!")
- Kassandra: ... Did you just say Minotaur "Pre-Trials"?
- Leiandros: To face the Minotaur, you must first prove yourself worthy by completing three heroic trials.
We can't let people fresh off of the triremes casually stroll to their deaths!
Pephka policy.- (If players choose "What are these "Pre-Trials"?)
- Kassandra: What do these Pre-Trials require me to do, exactly?
- Leiandros: There's the Trial of Strength, where you fight the greatest warrior in all of Krete. The Trial of Accuracy, which only a keen eye can overcome! And the Trial of Endurance, where you must brave...
The water! - Kassandra: One of your Trials is swimming?! That's—this is a scheme to fleece me.
- Leiandros: Misthios, I—that's—how could you even think such a thing?
You're a terrible person.
(If players choose "What is the "The Prize of Pephka"?")
- Kassandra: What exactly is the "Prize of Pephka"?
- Leiandros: Why, it's limitless riches of course! Warriors defeated by the Minotaur no longer need their drachmae, so we collect their coins into a grand prize that only a champion who kills the beast may claim.
- Kassandra: Your grand prize is drachmae looted from the dead?!
- Leiandros: Misthios, please believe me, many of those coins go straight to the Lato School for Children Whose Parents Were Tragically Killed By the Minotaur!
- Kassandra: I see.
(If players choose "What exactly is the Minotaur?")
- Kassandra: Tell me about your "Minotaur."
- Leiandros: Part man, part beast, all monster. His horns are as sharp as blades, and his blades are as sharp as... horns? Wait, no, I always mess that up—
- Kassandra: A vivid portrait. You must have seen him personally.
- Leiandros: Many times. And I'll tell you this much—no one's ever returned from where he dwells.
(If players choose "What does the name "Melite" mean to you?")
- Kassandra: How would you react if I said the name... "Melite"?
- Leiandros: Uh, Melite? Well, I—No. I've not heard of them. It's a strange name, one I'd remember.
(I'm ready.)
- Kassandra: I'll do your Trials—
- Leiandros: Pre-Trials!
- Kassandra: —I'll do your Pre-Trials, but then the Minotaur's head is mine.
- Leiandros: Fantastic! Don't forget to collect Tokens of Success from the Trial Masters to prove your victories.
A woman interrupted the conversation, walking to them.
- Kore: Ugh, another "champion," here to save us all from Pephka's long queues and overpriced Minotaur merchandise.
- Leiandros: Ah, may I introduce my wife, Kore! A rare beauty, and so—
So loud, in front of my new friend. - Kore: Please, Leiandros—there are more important things than glory.
- Kassandra: Nothing stands in the way of glory. Statues aren't carved to honor the insignificant.
- Kore: And what about my daughter? Is she insignificant, "hero"?
Don't worry about Amara—not when there's a Minotaur to slay!
"GRR!" "Slash-slash!" Big fight! Lots of blood! Think of the fame, misthios! Think of winning the Prize of Pephka!
Leiandros leaned forward, whispering to Kassandra.
- Leiandros: Please trust me, champion—nothing is what it seems in Pepha. Solving one problem may just solve all the others...
Leiandros stepped backwards and raised his voice again.
- Leiandros: Go, my legendary friend! The Pre-Trials of the Minotaur await!
Kassandra departed to complete the trials mentioned by Leiandros. In doing so, she collected all the three tokens to prove her success.
- Kassandra: That's all 3 Tokens. Better meet Leiandros at the Warrior's Rest.
Outcome[]
Kassandra met Leiandros, agreeing to participate in the "pre-trials" before facing the Minotaur. She obtained all three tokens as proof of her success.
