This article is about Kassandra's home in Achaia. You may be looking for Kassandra's hovel on Kephallonia.

The residence

The Ionian Watch was a watchtower and a residence overlooking the village of Dyme in the Istion Valley region of Achaia, Greece.

History

The residence originally belonged to a friend of Kleta who had been killed trying to escape the Tempest's blockade of Achaia. Following the Tempest's death at the hands of the Spartan misthios Kassandra, she, along with the Persians Darius and Natakas, made the watchtower their home. It was here that the son of Kassandra and Natakas, Elpidios, was born. Natakas also made a memorial to his late mother and siblings in the Ionian Watch's yard.

Sometime later, Dyme was attacked by the Order of the Ancients looking for Kassandra and her family. While Darius charged Kassandra to escort Natakas and Elpidios to safety, she returned to rescue him. Meanwhile, Natakas and Elpidios hid in a shipwreck on a nearby beach, but they were discovered. Natakas was slain, and Elpidios was taken. After Kassandra and Darius buried Natakas on the grounds of their home, making him a memorial next to the one to his family, they left to exact retribution on the Order and rescue Elpidios.

At some point afterwards, Kassandra recovered several mementoes of Natakas to place by his memorial, bidding him goodbye.
