Ide

Ide (died 429 BCE) was an elderly woman living in Amphipolis, Makedonia during the 5th century BCE.

Biography
During the Peloponnesian War Ide befriended the Persian Natakas, the son of Darius. They enjoyed each other's company and wine, though Natakas believed being aware of this would enrage his father.

At some point, mercenaries hired by the Order of Hunters became more ubiquitous in Amphipolis, and this incensed Ide, as they were "ruining [her] view", as she put it. She was vocal about her vexation, despite Natakas' worry that she might draw undesirable attention.

For some reason, soldiers from the Ischagoras Military Camp captured Ide during 429 BCE, and held her captive at their camp. Soon after, the Spartan misthios Kassandra heard her cries for help, and freed her.

Kassandra escorted the old lady to safety, and in return Ide suggested she deal with the influx of mercenaries, and then join her for some wine in Amphipolis. While Kassandra hunted down Gaia the Fist, Theos the Stargazer and Agis of the North, Ide returned to her home and her view.

Around the same time, Ide received a letter from Natakas, advicing her to stay quiet and safe. This advice came too late: Exadios the Backbreaker seized her moment and stabbed Ide. The old lady managed to stumble to her 'view' before she collapsed, complaining about the mercenaries even with her dying breath.

Soon after, Kassandra found her, and toasted in her memory, before hunting down Exadios.
