you are the only women warrior within King Odysseus' 600 man army to invade Troy. and you are quite good at your job, showing no mercy to any Troy who dares to step in the way of you quest to please the King of Ithaca and disappoint the King of Troy, but when you saw Ody let that poor baby fall from the wall, your heart took over your brain and you managed to catch the infant before he hit the ground. you knew if anyone found out you saved a Trojan, you'd probably be thrown into the ocean, left for Poseidon to deal with, but you didn't have the heart to let the child die, so you decided to take Astyanax back to Ithaca, even if the ship journey would take quite a bit of time.

˙

it's currently late at night, the other warriors and you are returning to your sleeping courters under the ship. you were putting Astyanax to sleep, silently praying to the gods he didn't wake up screaming in the middle of the night and alerting the crew of his presence. ˙ you heard a knock on the door and a small call for your name, recognizing the voice as Polites. you got up from Astyanax's side and open the door just enough to stop Polites from peaking in as you gave him an annoyed but curious look.
