On the Grapevine was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan in 2018 through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
Kassandra attempted to recover information about the Tempest.
Dialogue[]
While in the Teichos of Herakles, Kassandra recovered a document.
Warning Letter
- Bones to ash, and ash to dust. We've been watching across the Aegean, biding and waiting for our time. I trust that our forces were helpful in aiding your goals before, and this time I believe that our goals align. Don't worry, we haven't forgotten our agreement. We just need the Eagle Bearer. We've done your cult favors, and we've come to claim ours. – The Tempest
- Kassandra: "We've done your cult favors and we've come to claim ours." Signed by the Tempest. The Order and the Cult working together. Not surprising.
Eivor finding the note in the fortress
Kassandra travelled to the Olouros Fortress. Ikaros determined the intel she required was in the guard tower.
- Kassandra: Here it is.
She sneaked in and recovered the military orders.
Military Orders
- Kassandra: "We need time to get the new weapons fitted onto our fleet." New weapons? I don't like the sound of that.
Eivor recovering the orders in the Leader House
Kassandra travelled to the Leader House in Patrai. Ikaros identified the intel she required on a table inside.
- Kassandra: There it is!
She infiltrated the leader house and recovered the intel.
Order Manifesto
- The Tempest is performing well, better than we imagined. Our concerns were unfounded—her ties to this place have not clouded her judgement or affected her actions. She is bringing the storm. Still... I will continue my observations.
- Kassandra: "The Tempest is performing flawlessly, but I will continue my observations." Someone sent this woman to spy on the Tempest.
Eivor finding the orders in the House of the Phoenician
Kassandra travelled to the House of the Phoenician in Boura. Ikaros found the note on a table inside.
- Kassandra: I see it.
She infiltrated the house and recovered the note.
Reply from the Tempest
- Capture the stranded people in Boura. We can't let them get established there. I know for a fact that someone from that village will be helping them... Someone unable to stay idle around people in need. Make sure to round them up—all of them.
- Kassandra: "Capture the stranded people in Boura. We can't let them establish a foothold there." I wonder if Kleta knows about this.
After collecting a second piece of intel, Kassandra remarked on her foe's influence.
- Kassandra: The Tempest has heavy influence here. I need to know more.
After collecting a third piece, Kassandra reiterated her need to learn more.
- Kassandra: I need to know more about the Tempest.
After collecting all four pieces of information she needed, Kassandra assessed her new foe.
- Kassandra: That's all the letters I need. The Tempest is a brilliant strategist. A straight fight won't work. We'll need a plan to defeat her.
Outcome[]
Kassandra found all four pieces of information related to the Tempest.
Behind the scenes[]
The other three pieces of intel will not spawn until the first note from the Teichos of Herakles is collected. Depending on the order in which players finish Kassandra's memories, her line following every subsequent note will not trigger. If "Prodigal" has already been completed, Kassandra will say nothing after collecting the note in the House of the Phoenician, nor will she say anything after collecting the note in Olouros Fortress if "Persian Puppetry" is completed. All the notes can still be collected if the final memory "Leviathan's Maw" is finished, but no dialogue will trigger as Kassandra will have already identified and eliminated the Tempest.
