After learning of Berenike's identity as a member of the Order and the killer of Hotephres' daughter Shadya, Bayek travelled to the estate to assassinate Berenike once and for all. There, he saw his old friend Kensa, who was employed by Berenike as her personal bodyguard. This did not impede Bayek in his mission, and he ultimately succeeded in assassinating Berenike.[2]
