| This article is about the memory of Kassandra. You may be looking for the Ainigmata Ostraka. |
Ashes to Ashes was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Having learned what she needed to hunt down the treacherous priestess Chrysis, Kassandra made her way to the Altar of Apollo Maleatas on Mount Kynortion.
Kassandra found the altar, and approached it.
On top of the altar laid a dead eagle.
In the distance, she heard a crying infant. Rushing to the nearby shrine, Kassandra was attacked by Cultist guards.
Once the cultists were dealt with, she entered the shrine, finding Chrysis cradling a swaddled baby.
(If players choose "What happened to my brother?")
(If players choose "Where is my mother?")
(If players choose "Attack — I'll kill you.")
Chrysis hurled an explosive at the altar, and the room erupted in flames. She made her escape, leaving Kassandra with the crying infant.
Kassandra grabbed the infant and carried it out, as the infant's mother ran up to them and took the baby from Kassandra.
The mother walked away with her infant safe and sound while Chrysis successfully eluded Kassandra.
Kassandra chased after Chrysis and knocked her to the ground. She pinned her down with one hand and held the Spear of Leonidas against her throat with the other.
Kassandra slashed the Spear of Leonidas across Chrysis' throat. As Chrysis died, Kassandra pondered.
Kassandra learned how her brother Alexios was separated from their mother Myrrine, and that she fled to Korinth after being led to believe he died.
