- Kassandra: These gauntlets will help me get past the Veil. Thanks for your help.
- Elpenor: My pleasure, of course.
- Kassandra: All right. Let's get out of here.

Arms of Atonement was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Kassandra met with Elpenor, who agreed to aid her locate the gauntlets which would allow her to cross a Tartaros Veil.
Dialogue
Kassandra met with Elpenor at the entrance to Kronos' Treasury.
- Elpenor: Kassandra! I'm glad you've come.
- Kassandra: Would you blame me if I didn't?
- Elpenor: I'll earn your trust in time, and we can begin that process now. This door will lead us to Kronos' Treasury, where the gauntlets you'll need are stored. I have the key here.
- Kassandra: If you want me to trust you, you have to start being honest with me. Why do you have the key?
- Elpenor: Hades... had me tidy the treasury for him once.
(Asked "How safe is it to steal from Kronos?")
- Kassandra: It isn't wise to steal from the titans.
- Elpenor: The Titans fell long ago. No harm in using their tools to put a stop to the Monger.
(Asked "What's going on between you and Hades?")
- Kassandra: So what, you're Hades' housekeeper now?
- Elpenor: I like to work for him only on occasion. That is all. Think of me as his... mentee.
- Kassandra: Hades doesn't strike me as the mentoring type.
- Elpenor: There's much about Hades that you don't understand.
(Leave – "Let's go.")
- Kassandra: I'll need those gauntlets if we want to catch the Monger.
- Elpenor: My thoughts exactly. I'll offer my assistance as your personal guide through the treasury.
- Kassandra: Let's just get this over with.
- Elpenor: Of course, misthios. Whatever you need.
Elpenor unlocked the treasury and led the way inside.
- Elpenor: Tread carefully. The prisoners of Tartaros have been known to attack this cave.
They entered a repository filled with scrolls and immediately encountered the escaped prisoners. They killed them and continued on until they found a barricaded path.
- Elpenor: It looks as though this path can be cleared from the other side.
They continued down the adjacent path into a room filled with lava and pillars only a skilled athlete could climb.
{missing dialogue for entering lava room}
Kassandra left Elpenor where he was and navigated the pillars and chains to reach the other side of the room.
[Possible fork in the dialogue for clearing a path to bring Elpenor with, or leaving him behind. The following assumes clearing the path for him.]
Kassandra killed more escaped prisoners and navigated the twisting corridors of the repository. She eventually found herself on the other side of the barricaded path.
- Elpenor: Well done. Now, clear the path and I can join you.
Kassandra broke the wine jars blocking the shelf and shifted it out of the way.
- Elpenor: Perfect. Now, let's get to the treasury.
As they walked back through the halls, they spoke of Hades once again.
- Kassandra: So... How's working for the god of the dead?
- Elpenor: You really want to know?
- Kassandra: Try me.
- Elpenor: All the myths and stories don't come close to doing Hades justice. He's cunning. Inspiring. A true architect of life... And also of death. He's everything I aspire to be.
They eventually reached the treasury proper. Kassandra looked around in awe.
- Kassandra: What is this place?
- Elpenor: Kronos' Treasury. Kronos hid all his worldly possessions here, far away from the sons that had been prophesized to be his undoing.
- Kassandra: It was my favorite story as a child.
- Elpenor: All the myths, stories, and epics told throughout the generations were transpiring beneath us all along. And now we get to play among the gods, together.
- Kassandra: Let's find the gauntlets quickly.
- Elpenor: Over here.
Elpenor led her to a treasure pile and found the gauntlets after a minimal amount of effort. He held them out to her.
- Elpenor: We make a great pair. Meet me at the Lost Temple of Nyx when you're ready to take on the Monger.
Outcome
Kassandra obtained the gauntlets.
