Dialogue
Kassandra departed Athens, taking command of the Adrestia]] to make her way to Xenia and Keos Island. The ship docked at Koressia, whereupon Kassandra disembarked. Before Kassandra can open the doors to the temple, Xenia shoved them open, tossing a soldier outside. She carved a symbol in the man's forehead with her knife. (If players choose "I came to meet you.") (If players choose "A criminal.") (If players choose "Why so much?") (If players choose "I'll be back.") Kassandra walked down into the city. Once Kassandra gathered enough drachmae, she returned to Xenia at the temple. In a flashback, Xenia walked to Myrrine, who stood on the shore of the ocean. (If players choose "Where is she?") (If players choose "Why did she leave?") (If players choose "How did you meet her?") (If players choose "I have what I need.") Kassandra nodded her head in thanks before leaving Xenia and the temple.
 * Barnabas: Welcome Back! There's a message for you on the board. Came from the Delos Islands. One of the Cultists is there, Kassandra. His name is Podarkes.
 * Kassandra: You reading my messages, Barnabas?
 * Barnabas: I may have taken a peek. Did you find what you were looking for in Athens?
 * Kassandra: A few clues - but this won't be easy.
 * Barnabas: Well it's a good start! All we can do now is trust the path the gods have laid out for us.
 * Kassandra: I'm not the only one looking for my mother. The cult that wanted Nikolaos dead? They're also on my trail.
 * Barnabas: Oh, they're no match for you.
 * Kassandra: You got that right.
 * Barnabas: The seas are treacherous around Keos. We should be careful.
 * Herodotos: What? Charybdis and Skylla await at the bottom of the sea, I suppose?
 * Barnabas: No. Pirates. A lot of them.
 * Herodotos: Huh. Only pirates?
 * Kassandra: Hmm, I don't see any soldiers here. Only pirates. They must be running the whole island.
 * Soldier: Gods have mercy!
 * Xenia: You - want - mercy? Those who trade in slaves anywhere on my island will be marked as slaves themselves...
 * Xenia: ...Then hauled to Attika and fed to the system they tried to profit from. Get this scum out of my sight.
 * Kassandra: I thought all pirates were slavers.
 * Xenia: And you are?
 * Kassandra: My name is Kassandra.
 * Xenia: Well, Kassandra, we're all thought to be murderers too. So, tell me why I shouldn't kill you right here.
 * Kassandra: I came to find the great pirate Xenia. That's you, isn't it?
 * Xenia: I like the sound of that, but what was your plan once you found me?
 * Kassandra: I came to offer you a deal.
 * Xenia: Entering my city and killing my followers is a strange way to strike a deal.
 * Kassandra: I didn't think they'd let me just walk in, and I don't have time to waste.
 * Xenia: Then speak.
 * Kassandra: I'm looking for a woman. She left Sparta when I was a child.
 * Xenia: I'll need more than that, Kassandra.
 * Kassandra: She has birthmarks on her arm that form the constellation Aquila.
 * Xenia: Now that is something I can work with. Just who exactly is this woman?
 * Kassandra: She's a criminal who fled Sparta many years ago. I was hired to bring her back.
 * Xenia: I see. So, she's dangerous?
 * Kassandra: To you, I don't think anyone is dangerous.
 * Xenia: If only that were true.
 * Kassandra: Aspasia's the one who sent me to find you.
 * Xenia: Aspasia? Now why would she do that?
 * Kassandra: She said you might have information that could help me in my search.
 * Xenia: You can have anything for the right price.
 * Kassandra: And what is that price?
 * Xenia: Considering you butchered a few of my people, I feel like compensation is in order.
 * Kassandra: Why do you need so much drachmae?
 * Xenia: I have a city to secure and people to protect. I have no interest in going to war - I just want to make sure the war doesn't come to us.
 * Kassandra: I don't have the drachmae yet, but I'll return when I do.
 * Xenia: There's no rush on my part. If you need work, check with my people in the city. I'm sure they'd have use for a capable mercenary.
 * Kassandra: Trust a pirate to only help for a boat-load of drachmae. If I'm going to pay her, I need to find some work on this island. It should be much easier to travel the island now that everyone won't try to kill me on sight.
 * Xenia: The mighty not-Spartan returns!
 * Kassandra: Here, take it.
 * Xenia: A pleasure doing business.
 * Kassandra: The information I need, how long will it take?
 * Xenia: I already have it.
 * Kassandra: You do?
 * Xenia: Your "Myrrine" now sails under the name of Phoenix. She started as a member of my crew, but we parted ways not too long ago.
 * Myrrine: I'm leaving soon.
 * Xenia: Keos is your home.
 * Myrrine: But this isn't my true calling - my purpose.
 * Xenia: You might never find what you are looking for, Phoenix.
 * Myrrine: I can't stop until I do.
 * Xenia: You are a great pirate.
 * Myrrine: And you are an even greater friend. Don't forget me.
 * Kassandra: Do you know where she is now?
 * Xenia: She sailed southeast with her crew in search of a greater calling.
 * Kassandra: She was part of your crew?
 * Xenia: For a time.
 * Kassandra: Why did she leave?
 * Xenia: Much too interested in the politics of war - a waste of a good pirate if you ask me. I haven't heard from her since she left.
 * Kassandra: Keos is a long way from Sparta. How did your paths cross?
 * Xenia: On the sea, long ago. In her, I saw a better life. In me, she found freedom. Together, we owned the waves.
 * Kassandra: I can't believe she was a pirate.
 * Xenia: She's the kind of woman who, once she sets her mind to something, gets it done.
 * Kassandra: Thank you. I...
 * Xenia: Home isn't a place, it's the people you're with. If you don't find what you're looking for, there's a place for you here.
 * Kassandra: Phoenix. There have to be people who know that name.
