Huntsman, | |||
Our trap is set. The Eagle Bearer - ever believing herself a hero - will be lured to the screams of the poisoned village.<br /> | |||
I will ensure the villagers' surffering is not in vain - they sacrifice so that we may rid the world of a greater threat, a Tainted One. | |||

I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name? This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given. |
During the Peloponnesian War, the misthios Kassandra collected numerous notes regarding the Order of the Ancients, a proto-Templar organization from Persia and Egypt. She did so with information given by Darius and Natakas, and recovered correspondence exchanged between the Ancients members. In this capacity, she also recovered clues to the identities of various members by killing them.
Message from the Fighter
Do not be afraid of the Tainted Ones, but be happy that we see our purpose.
Their strength is near unmatched - to defeat them I need power. I go now to the northern shrine to petition Ares for strength. Tell the Huntsman I will no longer rely upon the fickleness of beasts. The god of war himself will aid me. I will bring the Eagle Bearer to the ground, and when it is done, return to my wife.
...I do miss her scent.
-The FighterDarius's Notes on the Watcher
Darius noticed an Ancient that has been observing people throughout Makedonia. He was last seen at the Triple Peninsula of the Chalkidike.
Message from the Watcher
How long has it been since we came here? I've watched endlessly and seen nothing. But now, finally, the one we seek is here! The "Eagle Bearer." She thinks she's hunting us! The arrogance.
I've sent word to the Huntsman, and he will soon make prey of this Eagle Bearer. Until then, as always, I will watch.
The Order is my light.
Message to the Deceiver
My dear wife.
Everything you requested has been provided. Guards for your shipment and parties her in Olynthos Fortress are all prepared.
Akantha, don't concern yourself with the rumours. You know I don't believe them. They are bitter lies from jealous rivals. Your faithfullness is beyond question. You know as leader of Makedonia I have also been the target of slander at times. I have officers investigating. They will find those reponsible and deal with them.
In the meantime, trust in the protection I've provided.
I remain,
Your devoted husband

Note from the Physician to the Huntsman
Huntsman,
Our trap is set. The Eagle Bearer - ever believing herself a hero - will be lured to the screams of the poisoned village.
I will ensure the villagers' surffering is not in vain - they sacrifice so that we may rid the world of a greater threat, a Tainted One.
By the time you read this, I will have completed my plan, and the Eagle Bearer will be dead. I'm leaving this note with your soldiers and continuing west. I've made arrangements with local bandits that will ensure my safe passage out of Makedonia.
