You are dismayed to learn that the one of the greatest thinkers of your time, Socrates, is in trouble. He has dared to challenge the accepted religious beliefs and refused to worship the Athenian Gods. Contemplating his absence leaves you distraught, for you have loved long conversations with Socrates in the agora. Sometimes, you wander away confused... but you can't imagine the agora without him.

You find that while Socrates has been given the choice of being banished from Athens or drinking poisonous hemlock juice, he has chosen to die! Many are confused, including Zeus.

As a devoted follower of this great philosopher, Zeus grants you the last interview with the mighty Socrates. Your assignment is to detail the life of the great philosopher and explain how his beliefs have ultimately lead to the choice he has made.
