Hecuba
The shore encampment of the Greek army in the Thracian Chersonese, where the entire action of the window takes place, before Agamemnon's tent.
Meanwhile all the Achaeans sit idly here in their ships at the shores of Thrace;
Before Agamemnon’s tent in the Greek camp upon the shore of the Thracian Chersonese.
but now I am hovering over the head of my dear mother Hecuba, a disembodied spirit, keeping my airy station these three days, ever since my poor mother came from Troy to linger here in the Chersonese.
Anabasis
The Greek army's camp, where news of the betrayal causes panic and arming.
Thereupon the Greeks, one and all, ran to their arms, panic-stricken and believing that the enemy would come at once against the camp.
And the Greeks wondered at this riding about, as they saw it from their camp, and were puzzled to know what the horsemen were doing, until Nicarchus the Arcadian reached the camp in flight, wounded in his belly and holding his bowels in his hands, and told all that had happened.
On the following day, when Clearchus returned to the Greek camp, he not only made it clear that he imagined he was on very friendly terms with Tissaphernes and reported the words which he had used, but he said that those whom Tissaphernes had invited must go to him, and that whoever among the Greeks should be convicted of making false charges ought to be punished, as traitors and foes to the Greeks.
