| | After the Battle of Pylos, Kassandra was captured and woke up in a prison cell in [[Athens]]. After waking up, she saw Deimos at the other side of the gate and approached him. |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''I don't know what you were thinking back there.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''What, trying to save you?'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''That's not what that was. I told you to stay out of my way - yet here you are.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''So, what? I'm a priosner until I'm killed.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''That's the plan. Or I could come in here and end you anytime I please. But before that. Tell mne what you know.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I thought your Cultists told you everything. Sounds like you're on their side, but they're not on yours.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''You think I'm just a puppet? Then prove it to me. Tell me why I'm on the wrong side. Convince me - I dare you.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''What do you want to know?'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''Everything you claim to be true. But after this, I kill you. Why was I abandoned that night on the [[Mount Taygetos|mountain]]?'' |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|It was the prophecy.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''It was the [[Praxithea|Pythia]]'s prophecy. The [[Sparta]]n [[ephor]]s said there was no other choice.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''A prophecy?'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''You and I both know who feeds the Pythia her words.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''...I do. A baby with a fate so terrible it was thrown off a cliff. What kind of prophecy would lead to that?'' |
| | {{#tag:tabber| |
| | The prophecy said you'd doom Sparta.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''The Pythia said you were going to bring Sparta to greatness, or to its downfall. Waiting for the outcome was too big a risk.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''A risk.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I heard you're unpredictable.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''I call it being decisive. You weren't decisive that night. You - "my family" - let me go.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''"Let you go"? You have no idea what happened on that mountain.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''Then tell me.'' |

| | *'''Deimos:''' ''There's no other name for what you did to me. I was left to die.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''We tried to save you.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''They decreed my fate, and you accepted it.'' |
| | |-|It was the Cult's fault.= |

| | <tabber> |
| | |-|I wanted to save you.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''No one told you that I tried to save you? I ran to catch you. I killed an elder. That ended my life, too.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''Always trying to play the "hero." It wasn't enough then, and it wasn't enough now.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I did everything I could. And I'm doing the same today.'' |
| | |-|Our mother searched for you.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''[[Myrrine|Mater]] went after you.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''What do you mean, "after me?"'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''She went down the mountain to find you. She had to find you.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''And what did she find there?'' |

| | *'''Deimos:''' ''And they built a machine.'' |

| | <tabber> |
| | |-|I was throw off, too.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Listen. After you and the elder fell, they threw me off Mount Taygetos, too. [[Nikolaos|Pater]]... let me go. It was his "duty."'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''You were abandoned, too.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Yes.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''But we both survived. Against their whishes.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''We did. We're alive.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''Maybe it serves them right.'' |
| | |-|We were both lied to.= |
| | |
| | |-|The Cult wants me, too.= |

| | </tabber> |
| | Their conversation was cut short by [[Kleon]]. |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Deimos. We've been searching for you. And you're here. In the guitar. I heard shouting.'' |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''It's nothing.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Leave. Now. This was not your action to take, boy.'' |
| | (Depending on the choices made in the earlier dialogue, Deimos will either listen to Kleon or defy him.) |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|Listen= |
| | |
| | |-|Defy= |
| | *'''Deimos:''' ''I am not your puppet! And you are not my master.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Of course, champion. An indiscretion I won't repeat.'' |
| | </tabber> |
| | Deimos left the prison. Kleon approached Kassandra. |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Keep in mind you put yourself in the cell.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I don't recall doing that.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''You have to understand - this is all for Athens, Kassandra. [[Perikles]] would've impoverished the entire city. The people were living in squalor!'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''So you had him murdered.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''You can't find the perfect yolk without breaking some of the quail's eggs. he wasn't right for us.'' |
| | <tabber> |
| | |-|You aren't right, either.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Killing your adversaries proves what kind of leader you are.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Oh, I'm just getting started. If only you'd be around to watch.'' |
| | |-|So, you're a different kind of leader.= |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Then you'll do things differently than Perikles.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Friends flank my every side. The people trust in me. They know my every decree and law will be to their benefit. And they will delight in what I have planned.'' |
| | </tabber> |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Come into the cell. You're here to kill me, aren't you? Let's see what happens.'' |
| | Kleon signaled for the guards to come to him. |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''Fortunately for me, there are other fires I need to extinguish. I've heard word of {{Wiki|Mytilenean revolt|revolt}}.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Already? That was fast.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''I have a plan - they can't revolt if they're dead.'' |
| | The guards entered the cell and surrounded Kassandra. |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''I don't know how you can take on a band of rebels if you refuse to fight this one.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''The act itself is out of my hands - the vote has been cast! What did I tell you? The people have given me their blessing. I use their power.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''That's not democracy.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''The people have chosen their destiny, Kassandra - they've chosen me.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Fuck you, Kleon.'' |
| | Kleon laughed. |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''I'm not alone in this! The people of Athens have spoken without me lifting a finger. That is how you treat rebellion.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''They don't know what they're agreeing to.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''You helped me in Athens - even willingly. if only you were more like your brother now.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''A pity.'' |
| | *'''Kleon:''' ''The Cult wins, Kassandra. Now, I have to see about the boat heading to [[Mytilene]]. Its people are in for a rude awakening.'' |
| | Kleon left, whistling for the guards to kill Kassandra. However, they were easily defeated by her. She the heard a scream. |
| | *'''[[Barnabas]]:''' ''Chaaaarrrge!'' |
| | *'''[[Sokrates]]:''' ''Yaaaaaahhhhhh!'' |
| | Barnabas and Sokrates charged into the cell with a shovel and a pick. |
| | *'''[[Barnabas]]:''' ''By the power of the gods - halt! ...Aw.'' |
| | They dropped the tools. |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Good timing.'' |
| | *'''Sokrates:''' ''Interesting. Death maybe the greatest of human blessings, after all.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''At least you tried.'' |
| | *'''Barnabas:''' ''Surely it's the thought that counts! Thank the gods you're alive, Kassandra.'' |
| | *'''Sokrates:''' ''If those guards aren't the last, I say we need to leave, and do so quickly.'' |
| | *'''Kassandra:''' ''Wait - we need to talk about Kleon.'' |
| | *'''Barnabas:''' ''Sokrates is onto that malaka. We know what he's doing.'' |
| | *'''Sokrates:''' ''Be brief! her equipment, Barnabas.'' |
| | Barnabas handed over Kassandra's equipment, allowing her to change. They exited the cell. |
| | *'''Sokrates:''' ''Come, Barnabas! kassandra meet us at [[Perikles' Residence]]. There, we'll discuss all we know.'' |
| | Barnabas and Sokrated left. |

| ==Outcome== | | ==Outcome== |
| | Kassandra was captured by the Cult of Kosmos and imprisoned in a prison cell in Athens. There, she told Deimos what she knew about the incident. She then learned of Kleon being a member of the Cult and was later saved by Barnabas and Sokrates, who told her to meet them at Perikles' Residence. |
