The attackers clashed with Xerxes' men, who easily overpowered them, while some of his men closed ranks around him. Xerxes took the opportunity to gloat at their failure.

Darius released his blade. Xerxes clutched his wound in vain before bleeding to death on his throne.
The scene returned to the present.
Darius picked up a scroll and walked over to Kassandra. He extended it to her.
Kassandra accepted the scroll as Darius walked away.
Kassandra's investigation of the trail led her to come face to face with Darius, Natakas' father. She later learned from them of the Order of the Ancients, who came to Makedonia to eliminate individuals like her.
