Kassandra went to the Teichos of Herakles to rescue several captured civilians.
Kassandra parted company with Natakas and Darius, setting out to infiltrate the Teichos of Herakles above them.
Kassandra infiltrated the citadel and set about liberating the stranded people. Ikaros helped her find them.
While in the fortress, she found a note indicating that the Cult of Kosmos and the Order of the Ancients were cooperating. She began eliminating soldiers and freeing the citizens, starting with two near the training yard.

One woman further in the citadel was the mother of the child that Natakas was escorting earlier.
