The Horsemen Cometh was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Kassandra travelled to Potidaia after receiving a mysterious letter.
Dialogue
Kassandra received a letter.
- Letter Addressed to a Misthios:
To any one who read this, huge forces are closing in and innocents are dying. We will pay watever we have. Come to Potidaia in Makedonia.
Kassandra sailed to Makedonia aboard the Adrestia. She boarded the docks with Barnabas.
- Kassandra: Are we that desperate? We're helping somebody move?
As they were conversing, a man looked at them from afar before walking away.
- Barnabas: What? The guy's got a lot of stuff! Work is work. And a few extra drachmae never hurt anybody. Sometimes even the simplest things can be worthy of our attention.
They spotted several injured villagers and a man running while on fire.
- Kassandra: That is much more worthy of my attention, Barnabas.
Barnabas returned to the Adrestia and Kassandra headed out to investigate. She headed up the hill to the village, which was on fire. She found a group of soldiers preparing to execute the villagers.
- Kassandra: They're here to kill. Why attack this village? They're innocent...
Kassandra approached a civilian about to be executed.
- Kassandra: Please, I have a family! I didn't do anything!
She eliminated the soldier, freeing the man.
- Civilian: Fucking malakes. That was close.
She then killed another soldier and freed a woman.
- Civilian: Oh, thank the gods! They... they heard me! Thank you!
Kassandra then freed the last man.
As Kassandra reached the center of the village, a soldier attempted to sneak up on her. She then heard a voice.
- Unknown: Misthios, watch out!
A man drew his bow and shot and arrow at the soldier, killing him. The man approached Kassandra.
- Unknown: More people near the Spartan camp need help.
As they were talking, a masked man approached with two guards.
- Kassandra: Persians?
- Unknown Masked Man: Eagle Bearer.
- Unknown Man: You—You are the Eagle Bearer.
- Kassandra: Go!
The man ran away.
- Unknown Masked Man: The Huntsman will be pleased when we bring him your head.
- Kassandra: You're welcome to try.
The man signaled his men to attack Kassandra. However, the misthios easily dispatched them.
- Kassandra: There's more people to help at the Spartan Camp. I should head there.
Kassandra left the village and traveled to the nearby Spartan camp. As she does so, she pondered about the man who saved her.
- Kassandra: Who was that who saved me?
As Kassandra approached the camp, she spotted the man near the bushes.
- Unknown Man: I knew you'd come. The Spartans are here slaughtering everyone. We have to stop them!
Kassandra approached the camp and eliminated the Spartan soldiers, saving the civilians held captive.
- Civilian 1: Misthios, you saved us.
- Civilian 2: I wouldn't be here without you.
Kassandra talked to the man.
- Unknown Man: Eagle Bearer—
- Kassandra: Call me Kassandra.
- Natakas: My name's Natakas.
(If players choose "How do the Persians know me?")
- Kassandra: They called me the Eagle Bearer. How do they know about me?
- Natakas: I'm not sure. But they're certainly looking for something.
(If players choose "The Persians mentioned a "Hunstman.")
- Kassandra: The Huntsman sounds like a name I should know.
- Natakas: And if he's here, we're fucked...
Kassandra nodded.
- Natakas: I need to take care of these people. That Order Elite passed through here, killing as he went. He left tracks nearby.
- Kassandra: I'll follow him.
Natakas walked off before stopping. He turned around.
- Natakas: Thank you, Kassandra.
- Kassandra: For what?
- Natakas: For helping. When nobdy else would.
Kassandra nodded.
Outcome
Kassandra helped to freed the captive villages in Potidaia and the Spartan camp. In doing so, she met Natakas and learned the name of a man known as the Huntsman, who was aware of her identity as the Eagle Bearer.
