History
Around 431 BCE, the Dagger kidnapped a farmer who wouldn't pay them tax. The Spartan misthios Kassandra was tasked with finding the farmer by his wife.[1] The slave Agapios, acting on the orders of his magistrate master, later employed Kassandra to find the true identity of The Kingfisher and clear suspicion from his brother, Neritos.
A smuggler working for The Dagger was using the local performers Prexileos and Idyia to spread the Dagger's propaganda using children in their care. The smuggler initially paid them for their services, but then ceased, threatening to come after the children if they stopped. Prexileos wanted the man dead and would have killed him himself if not for Idyia persuading him not to. Kassandra later put a stop to the smuggler.[2]
Kassandra's investigations found that Agapios' brother, Neritos was in fact The Kingfisher and founder and leader of The Dagger. Kassandra and the Magistrate rushed to confront Neritos, only to find Agapios trying to reason with his brother. In the ensuing confrontation, Kassandra managed to kill Neritos.[3]
