The Obsidian Eye was a model of an eye made of obsidian glass which belonged to the Cyclops of Kephallonia.
History
The crime lord known as the Cyclops of Kephallonia earned his nickname after being blinded in his left eye. Far from embracing it as an intimidating alias, however, the Cyclops found it offensive, and his insecurities over it led to him to designing an obsidian model of an eye to use as a replacement[1]
In 431 BCE, the prosthetic was stolen by the Spartan mithios Kassandra from the Cyclops' Lair on the suggestion of her friend Markos to hold for ransom against the Cyclops.[1] Not long afterwards, the mercenary sneaked into his base at Kleptous Bay with the intention of assassinating him and stealing his ship. She confronted him as he was torturing a sailor, Barnabas and taunted him with his stolen prosthetic. When he demanded for it to be returned, she did so by shoving it into the anus of a goat and gesturing him to retrieve it. Provoked into a rage, the humiliated thug attacked her and was killed along with his henchmen in the ensuing fight.[2]
A year later, Markos found the eye and invested in it, hoping to double its value, but the money he gained from it he promptly lost on another far-fetched endeavour.[3]
Trivia
- In Assassin's Creed: Odyssey, the achievement "Stink Eye" is earned by killing the goat and reclaiming the Obsidian Eye after the mission "The Big Break". It is valued at 2,750 drachmae.[4]
