- Kassandra: Without the Chimera's Breath, she doesn't stand a chance. I am Poseidon's Chosen, after all.
Darius frowned and shook his head at her bad joke. Kleta did not understand the reference.

With their plans in motion, Kassandra met with Darius, Natakas, and Kleta in the makeshift hideout in Patrai to begin the final evacuation of the stranded. | |||
==Dialogue== | |||
Kassandra drew near the ship hideout and overheard Natakas sharing the story how he and his father first met Kassandra with Kleta. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''Father almost killed her when they first met. If I hadn't stopped them...'' | |||
Kleta laughed. | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''Really? Who do you think would've won?'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''Um...'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''I can handle myself.'' | |||
Kassandra approached them. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Good, we're all here...'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''We've done everything we set out to.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Now, to get the stranded people out of Achaia...'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''The [[Phila|Tempest]] is on her way to install the Chimera's Breath on the Skylla.'' | |||
:(Tides of War complete) | |||
:'''Darius:''' ''But we have the Chimera's Breath now... The Tempest will never know what hit her.'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|The Tempest doesn't stand a chance.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Without the Chimera's Breath, she doesn't stand a chance. I am Poseidon's Chosen, after all.'' | |||
Darius frowned and shook his head at her bad joke. Kleta did not understand the reference. | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''What?'' | |||
|-|I hope you're right.= | |||
</tabber> | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''We'll surprise the Tempest. [[Barnabas]] and I will launch a sea attack. Using the Chimera's Breath to disable the Skylla will be our best chance to get everyone off the coast.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''The merchant ships—'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''The distraction should buy time for them to leave.'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''Natakas and I will make sure everyone is onboard the ships. This is our chance to leave Achaia.'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|Then you must go.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Darius is right, Natakas. You should be on those ships. Both of you. They're your way out.'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''What do you think, Natakas?'' | |||
Natakas looked down as he spoke. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''It's our only chance.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''You have to take it.'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''We will.'' | |||
|-|I wouldn't risk it.= | |||
</tabber> | |||
Darius took his leave. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''We'll need somewhere to stay until then... Somewhere that won't raise suspicion.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''I know just the place... A house on the hill near [[Dyme]].'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|We should go together.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Let's go there now.'' | |||
Kassandra motioned to Natakas, and they left for the house together with Kleta. | |||
|-|I'll meet you there.= | |||
</tabber> | |||
After a long journey back to Dyme, Kleta presented the house where Kassandra previously reunited with Darius. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''Look at this place...'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''It belonged to a friend of mine. He tried getting out of Achaia, but... he didn't make it.'' | |||
She looked down in silent remembrance of her friend. | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''I need to prepare the others. See you two soon.'' | |||
Kleta took her leave, giving Kassandra and Natakas the run of the place. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''There's something about this place...'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|It's beautiful.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''It's a beautiful place. Peaceful.'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''I know. Too bad we won't stay...'' | |||
|-|It's boring.= | |||
</tabber> | |||
They walked inside. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''So, what's next?'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''We'll probably keep running. As always.'' | |||
Natakas' face fell, then he looked over at the table. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''At least there's wine.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''At least there's wine.'' | |||
They exchanged a glance and agreed to share it. | |||
Night fell, and Darius, with his hood down, had a slain ibex slung over his shoulder. He walked it up the hill to the house to prepare it for dinner. Natakas roared, and he immediately dropped the deer and leapt into action. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''What have you done!'' | |||
Kassandra laughed. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Stop it.'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''This is how I grew up.'' | |||
Darius held position outside the door, [[Hidden Blade]] extended. He realized that Natakas was merely reminiscing. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''But seriously, your father is a very capable man.'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''He is. But emotionally.... He's hard to open up.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''It's hard to make friends for people like us. Living on the move, as we do.'' | |||
Darius retracted the Hidden Blade and continued eavesdropping. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''Though, we've met each other.'' | |||
Kassandra held up her cup in a toast. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''To our friendship.'' | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''To our friendship.'' | |||
Darius smiled as he heard them clink their cups together and giggle. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' Maláka. | |||
*(Natakas also says Maláka, but it is not subtitled.) | |||
Later in the night, after they sobered up, Kassandra and Natakas sat on the roof and stared up at the stars, as they did on the [[More Questions than Answers|night they first met]]. | |||
*'''Natakas:''' ''This reminds me of when we met in [[Makedonia]]—we ate boar beneath the stars. It was the first time in a long time that I felt home. I haven't felt it since... Until tonight.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Then let's make the most of it.'' | |||
Natakas smiled and they continued staring up at the sky as [[Ikaros]] flew past. | |||
Dawn came, and Darius and Natakas had already left. Kassandra looked out at the [[Istion Valley]] from the roof. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''I should find Darius and the others. The stranded people are probably at the docks already.'' | |||
She took another [[Leap of Faith|leap]] from the roof and traveled north, where she met Kleta overlooking the docks. | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''Eagle Bearer. Over here.'' | |||
Kassandra joined her overlooking the passengers boarding the ship out of Achaia. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''My friends. It's probably the last I'll ever see of them.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''The last time I saw my Phila, we were arguing. We always did. I wish I had told her how much she meant to me. How proud of her I was. Now that she's back, I'm scared I won't recognize her.'' | |||
Kassandra looked down at Natakas, who appeared to be giving instructions to some of the stranded. It looked as though he was holding back sadness. The same sadness flashed across Kassandra's face, of which Kleta took note. | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''Real connections with people are rare, Kassandra. We shouldn't be too quick to let them go.'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|Real connections ''are'' rare.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Real connections are hard to find. I may be letting one go right now... I don't know.'' | |||
|-|I don't do "connections."= | |||
</tabber> | |||
The first ship fully loaded and disembarked. Darius and Natakas joined the women on the cliff, when Barnabas ran up to them. | |||
*'''Barnabas:''' ''Captain! Hey, Captain!'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''What's going on?'' | |||
*'''Barnabas:''' ''A massive fleet has gathered nearby. They seem to be waiting for something, but we don't know what.'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''The Tempest.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''The ship... These people...'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''She knows. Somehow she knows.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''They're going to kill us all in one swift blow!'' | |||
<tabber> | |||
|-|I'll crush the fleet.= | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''We won't be destroyed. I'll sink every last ship.'' | |||
*'''Kleta:''' ''How?'' | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Barnabas, ready the ship for battle. And the Chimera's Breath.'' | |||
*'''Barnabas:''' ''Aye, Captain! She's ready to go. Let's send this storm straight to [[Hades]].'' | |||
*'''Darius:''' ''Natakas and I can handle things here. Good luck, Kassandra.'' | |||
|-|We're doomed.= | |||
</tabber> | |||
Kassandra took her leave while Natakas looked on with worry. The ''[[Adrestia]]'' waited in the waters below. | |||
*'''Kassandra:''' ''Barnabas should be on the Adrestia by now. I need to hurry!'' | |||

Calm Before the Storm was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
