Sparta's contribution to Kassandra was physical and martial — the discipline, the endurance, the specific capability that makes her effective in the game's combat system. The wisdom is what the exile produced: the years of navigating a world without the polis's protection, making decisions without institutional guidance, developing judgment through consequences rather than training. You cannot teach wisdom. You can only create the conditions where it becomes necessary.

The session is the game's mid-point assessment of what the Eagle Bearer has become — not the Spartan warrior Nikolaos trained, not the outcast Kephallonia produced, but the person the entire journey so far has been making. Strong enough for the physical demands. Wise enough to know when strength is insufficient.
