[[ | Kassandra investigated the [[Amphitheater, Chalkis City|theater]] in [[Chalkis City]] on [[Agapios]]'s request. | ||
== | ==Dialogue== | ||
As Kassandra approached the theater, she overheard a couple arguing. | |||
*'''[[Idyia]]:''' ''I won't let you do something this stupid!'' | |||
*'''[[Prexileos]]:''' ''That [[The Dagger|Dagger]] sympathizer has to die! He'll keep making us do his dirty work if I don't stop him.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''They'll just do it all the same!'' | |||
Kassandra approached the couple. | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Killing him won't solve anything, Prexileos!'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''But we can't just sit here and let him do this to us, Idyia! To the children!'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''You think I don't have their wellbeing in mind?!'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Well, you certainly aren't'' acting'' like it.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''How dare you!'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|Stop this! Both of you.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Enough, you two!'' | |||
|-|Try speaking calmly.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Calm down and listen to yourselves. The kids are scared.'' | |||
</tabber> | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Who do you think you are?'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''The ''misthios'' is right, calm down. It's bad for the—'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Speak up, stranger!'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Agapios sent me. He wants to prove his [[Neritos|brother]]'s innocence and destroy The Dagger.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''His brother? Neritos? Didn't he die on S—'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Stop, Idyia! We're in enough trouble as it is.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Tell me what you know.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Let's make a deal. Kill a man for me, ''misthios''. Help me, and I'll tell you about The Dagger's base of operations.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''We've been through this. No killing! Talk to the man instead! Make him honor his word to pay us.'' | |||
(Accept – "I'll help you.") | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Deal. I will take care of your problem.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''There's a man from The Dagger. He approached us one day to help them spread their agenda. We don't care about The Dagger, but we needed the extra income.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''He wanted us and the children to spread the message of The Dagger in the theater and on the streets.'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|That sounds fair.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Sounds like a fair trade.'' | |||
|-|He's exploiting you.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''He's just using you! Exploiting your children for sympathy.'' | |||
</tabber> | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''And now he intends to do it for free. He stopped paying us and threatened to come after our children if we didn't continue.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''I was going to kill him myself, but Idyia—'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''We can't just take a life like that, Prexileos! That's not us.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''He lives in the large house in the middle of the city. Kill him, and we'll have [[drachma]]e for you.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Listen to yourself! Talk to the man and posture if you must. But we aren't savages. I don't want to set a horrible example for the children.'' | |||
(Accept – "I'll deal with him.") | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''I'll deal with the man. Just make sure you pay up.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''If you need anything else or forget where to find the Dagger man, speak to us again.'' | |||
(If "How will I get to this man?" was chosen.) | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''This Dagger man, where will I find him?'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''He lives in the biggest house in town. There are many [[Soldier|guards]] there, so be careful.'' | |||
(If "How many children do you have?" was chosen.) | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''You are... prolific creatures. [[Eros]] would be proud.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''W-what are you saying?!'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''These kids aren't ''really'' ours. They're orphans.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''We just started taking them in one at a time. And—'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Look at us now, one big happy family. And... I can't wait for it to expand again.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Idiot. Don't make it sound weird.'' | |||
(Leave – "That's all.") | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''I've got all I need. I'll deal with the man.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Remember—no killing. No blood.'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Go now, ''misthios'', do what you must. Thank you.'' | |||
Kassandra left the theater and located the man. As she approached him, she could hear him talk to himself. | |||
*'''The Smuggler:''' ''I can't keep doing this... But I have to! I have to do this. For family. Yes, that's right.'' For family. | |||
He noticed her. | |||

{{#tag:tabber| | |||
Your head.= | |||

*'''The Smuggler:''' ''Guards! To me, at once!'' | |||

To talk.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''I'm just here to talk.'' | |||
*'''The Smuggler:''' ''Did the theater couple send you? I already told them to leave me alone. Or else—'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Or else ''what''? You'd hurt the children that live there?'' | |||
*'''The Smuggler:''' ''As unfortunate as that is, I would. For my family, I'd do anything! Guards! We've an intruder!'' | |||
A fight ensued. Kassandra killed the Smuggler, only to hear a child's voice ring out as they ran into the scene. | |||
*'''Child:''' Pater,'' we're home! ''Pater''? ''Pater! Mater'', come quick!'' | |||
*'''Woman:''' ''My love? No!'' | |||
Kassandra left the premises. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''He was just another man doing right by his family. Too bad he mixed with the wrong people.'' | |||

Kassandra returned to the theater to find The Dagger's thugs threatening Idyia and Prexileos. | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''You think you can take The Dagger on, theatre man?'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''No! Stop hitting him!'' | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''I'll hit him as much as I like! You sent a ''misthios'' after one of ours? Mess with The Dagger and get ''stabbed. | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Stop... Please.'' | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''You'll entertain me till the ''misthios'' returns, my friend. You best hope she gets here soon.'' | |||
<tabber> | |||

*'''Prexileos:''' ''Misthios! I've sent the children away. Make sure this Dagger ''maláka'' doesn't get to—'' | |||
The Dagger thug interrupted Prexileos with a swift kick. | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''Shut up! We'll find every last one of your precious kids. They'll fetch a good price.'' | |||
He laughed. | |||

*'''Thug:''' ''Brave like when you freed that slave! Remember her? The little spy girl?'' | |||
The thug laughed once again. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''If you laid a finger on her—'' | |||
The thug ignored her and continued laughing. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Curse you.'' | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''I'm a man that likes a little drama. So let's make this interesting. You, ''misthios'', seem to have a flair for the dramatic, and we are in a theater after all. So let's have you decide how this play will.. play out.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Get to the point.'' | |||
*'''Thug:''' ''Someone's got to die here today.'' | |||

*'''Thug:''' ''But, like I was saying. Someone's got to die. But just one! It's always more fun when one lover is alive to watch the other bleed. So, meddling misthios. Tell us, who should live?'' | |||
*'''Prexileos:''' ''Save Idyia, misthios.'' | |||
*'''Idyia:''' ''Wha—no! Save Prexileos, ''misthios''. The kids can't do without him.'' | |||

Both Prexileos and Idyia were slain. Kassandra drew her weapons and eliminated the remaining Dagger members. | |||

Consider it done.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''You have my word. I will see to it they lie dead at my feet.'' | |||

That may be hard to do.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''I will try. But this isn't going to be simple.'' | |||

*'''Kassandra:''' ''Skyros. Agapios needs to know about this.'' | |||
==Outcome== | |||
Kassandra learned the Dagger operated out of Skyros, narrowing down the location of their leader. She also eliminated the thugs. Depending on her actions, she may be able to save both Idyia and Prexileos, only one of them, or neither. | |||
==Behind the scenes== | |||
Idyia's dialogue changes slightly depending on whether or not Prexileos is saved. To save both of them, players can circle around the back of the theater and ambush the enemy, entirely bypassing the dialogue choice to kill one parent and spare the other. Saving both of them in this scenario is entirely dependent on gameplay, and so difficulty settings may work against the player and affect the outcome. | |||
The dialog triggers around 30 meters from the target. If players enter within that radius before attacking, even with the Rush Assassination [[Skill Tree (Assassin's Creed: Odyssey)|ability]], the dialog will trigger. However, in this counter-ambush scenario, Idyia cannot be killed, so prioritizing the guard(s) attacking Prexileos should also help keep them both alive. Oddly, the thugs do not immediately detect the player, even when ambushed. Rush Assassination or even the Overpowered Bow Strike can thus be used to eliminate many of them, and if any are left, they can be finished quickly in melee combat. | |||
