The Odyssey was a virtual representation of one of Bayek's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.

Description

The Priest of Serapis is being hunted by the Phylakitai, and needs help in escaping Alexandria.

Dialogue

Bayek found the priest sitting in the Egyptian district.

• Priest: Guards are everywhere! By Serapis. Where is that Medjay? Only he can help me. I don't feel safe anymore. The gods are not welcome in Alexandria... Now I pray Amun save me.

The priest saw Bayek approaching him.

• Priest: Medjay! Over here!
• Bayek: Priest? But why are you on the street?
• Priest: The guards discovered that I gave their food back to the people. Now they hunt me. I have a bounty on my head. Being a priest of light is a dark job in this filthy city.
• Bayek: I can get you out of Alexandria, Priest, if you like, but... I cannot keep you safe forever.
• Priest: I ask too much of you, Medjay. There is a small temple north of here that will take me in. The Phylakitai will be watching the roads, Medjay. We must leave by the canal, there should be boats there.
• Bayek: I will spew arrows on any who get in our way. Be like Amun, Priest. Perhaps we can sneak you out without the guards knowing.

Bayek escorted the priest to the canals.

• Priest: Let's take one of these boats.
• Bayek: And it will have to do. It looks sturdy enough.

Bayek and the priest board a boat and started riding their way to the temple.

• Priest: I go to a temple near the Pharos. They will take me in. I hope. Perhaps it is true what they say - Alexandria is a city filled with liars.
• Bayek: I've met a kind of two here in Alexandria, Priest.
• Priest: Sometimes it's enough to know that not everyone would kill another for a drachma.

They reached the exit of canals.

• Priest: We are nearing the arsenal responsible for all ill that has befallen me. They will be on alert.
• Bayek: Ready yourself then, Priest.

Several soldeirs approached Bayek and Priest, shooting several arrows them.

• Priest: They come after us with feluccas?
• Bayek: Apparently they wish to show other priests the error of your ways.
• Priest: It was only food! The people were starving.

Bayek eliminated the soldiers.

• Bayek: You may show yourself, Priest. They have gone.
• Priest: I owe you more than my life, Medjay.
• Bayek: We are not yet at your island. We still have a little ways to go.

Bayek and the priest reached the island.

• Bayek: Here is where you wish to stop? Is this the island?
• Priest: Yes. It is yet a short distance to the temple. I will be safe, Medjay. I will practice at the temple as a new man. I will leave you with a small token of my gratitude.
• Bayek: May your happiness multiply.

They alighted from the boat.

• Priest: This where you and I part, Medjay. I am a Priest no longer. Lysander was my name. It will be nice to be Lysander once more, I think.
• Bayek: Walk in peace then, Lysander.
• Lysander: And you Medjay... Bayek. Thank you.

Outcome

Bayek helped Lysander to escape from Alexandria to the island of Pharos, where the former priest would start a new life in a small temple.
