Who gets it: Knossos
Knossian aristocrat: My dearest erastai! I have decided to ride into battle!
Erastai: Incredible! You are so brave!
Knossian aristocrat: Also, along with the newest developments on the mainland, I shall take an aspis with me into battle!
Erastai: That must be truly heavy! What a hero!
Knossian Xystophoros: Only cowards hide behind their shields, when their armour isn’t strong, and their horse isn’t fast enough!
Xystophoros’ Erastai: Yes, tell him!
Knossian Xystophoros: I don’t need a shield. All I need is my trusty xyston and the favour of the gods.
Xystophoros’ Erastai: You are the god’s and our favourite!
