Biography[edit | edit source]

Ianthe was interested in an Isu artifact located in a vault hidden within a tomb in the hills of Kephallonia, but he could not open the door leading to it. He then decided to hire Markos and Cadmus to retrieve the treasure from the vault, giving them a map but stealing it later to lead them where he wanted them. As Cadmus entered the tomb, Ianthe and his men sealed him in by rolling a boulder over the entrance.[2]

Later, as Cadmus managed to not only open the door but also unlock the case where the Piece of Eden was kept, Ianthe and his men revealed themselves by clapping. Ianthe thanked Cadmus as one of his men knocked him to the floor and took the dagger. As they left, they smashed a pot of oil on the way out, trapping Cadmus behind a wall of flames.[2]

Ianthe and his accomplices headed for the nearby town, but Ianthe spotted Cadmus and ran from him. Cadmus caught up easily enough and jumped on top of Ianthe, who drew the double-bladed dagger, having one end pointed towards Cadmus and the other towards himself. Cadmus managed to shift his body enough that he was injured but not fatally so, while the other blade fatally wounded Ianthe. As he died, Ianthe told Cadmus that he was "but a small part of the machine" and part of a greater cause, claiming that the mere knowledge of the item meant Cadmus had to die.[2]
