Know Your Enemy

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

Description

After collecting three polemarch seals, Kassandra returned to Lysander in Sparta.

Dialogue

(Dialogue continues from The Cost of War)

• Kassandra: Fine. I'll kill more for you.
• Lysander: My soldiers think me bloodthirsty. I know the cost of war. Neither side will be clean of it.
• Kassandra: Your plan is working.
• Lysander: And the Athenian think me battle shy!
• Kassandra: That makes you happy?
• Lysander: I held my army back, so they dropped their guard. And then we ran them aground.

(If players choose "How does the war?")

• Kassandra: So I take it the war is going well for you, then?
• Lysander: Enough questions.

(If players choose "What will you do if you win?")

• Kassandra: What will you do if you win?
• Lysander: Enough talk.

(If players choose "OK. No more questions.")

• Kassandra: Fine. I won't ask any more questions.
• Lysander: Tell me then, Eagle Bearer, you must be pleased with our progress.
• Kassandra: As you said, tactics will win this.
• Lysander: When this is over, I'll try my hand at politics.
• Kassandra: I'm sure it'll suit you.
• Lysander: Go then, kill the enemy command. This is our war to win.
• Kassandra: I'll do it, General.

Kassandra returns to Lysander.

• Kassandra: I have the seals. Spartan troops have the outpost.
• Lysander: While you were gone, I oversaw the capture of three thousand. Yet still my men suck their thumbs.
• Kassandra: Three thousand prisoners?
• Lysander: Not anymore. They've been executed. Do you disapprove?

War is war.Our actions are our legacy.

• Kassandra: They'd do it to us.
• Lysander: So we understand one another then.
• Kassandra: Perfectly.

• Kassandra: Our actions live on long after we're dead.

Lysander turns infuriated.

• Lysander: Don't you dare lecture me, Eagle Bearer. The gods approve of my actions.
• Kassandra: Then I'll leave you to the gods.
• Lysander: Your Spartan blood boils, does it?

• Kassandra: These seals should provide you ample proof.
• Lysander: My command on the battlefield has been more than secured.
• Kassandra: You're welcome.
• Lysander: We're well-positioned for battle. Troops have been deployed and will control more ground soon. Your efforts were invaluable. I won't forget it.
• Kassandra: Thank you, General.

Outcome

Kassandra helped Lysander eliminate three Athenian polemarchs and recover their seals. She was again tasked to retrieve more.
