Island of Misfortune was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Kassandra travelled to Keos to look for Xenia, a pirate who may have information on her mother's whereabouts.
Kassandra boarded the Adrestia to set sail for Keos, where Xenia awaited.
Casting off, Kassandra and Barnabas discussed her findings at the symposium.
As the Adrestia approached Keos, Barnabas issued a warning.
The ship docked at Koressia, whereupon Kassandra disembarked.
Kassandra made her way to the Temple of Athena Nedousia overlooking the settlement, evading pirates where she could. Before she could open the doors to the temple, Xenia tossed a soldier through them.
She carved a symbol in the man's forehead with her knife.
Xenia's retainers ushered him off. She turned her attention to Kassandra.
She beckoned her to the overlook, where they continued their conversation.
Xenia charged Kassandra 17000 drachmae for the information.
(If players chosed "Why so much?")
Kassandra made a skeptical expression.
Kassandra took her leave and reflected on the conversation.
Walking down into the settlement, she noticed the other pirates were leaving her be.
She also spied some of the buildings destroyed in Xenia's coup.
In time, Kassandra gathered enough drachmae and returned to Xenia at the temple.
Kassandra looked at Xenia cross-eyed and lightly shook her head before handing over the drachmae.
In a flashback, Xenia walked to Myrrine, who stood on the shore of the ocean.
The scene returned to the present. (If players choose "Where is she?")
(If players choose "Why did she leave?")
(If players choose "How did you meet her?")
(Leave - "I have what I need.")
Kassandra nodded her head in thanks before leaving Xenia and the temple.
Kassandra learned that her mother sailed southeast of Keos using the moniker "Phoenix."
Completing this quest, along with Ashes to Ashes and Monger Down, will immediately fulfill the requirements to begin the next chapter of the main quest. As certain quests will no longer be available at that point, it may behoove the player to fulfill this objective last, as it is relatively convenient to return and pay Xenia for the information whenever the player is ready to advance the story.
