Prodigal Son's Return was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description[]
Kassandra came upon a young man, Lykinos, being held by bandits.
Dialogue[]
While exploring Korinthia, Kassandra came upon a bandit camp located within the Altar of the Cyclops. After eliminating them, she found a young man held as a captive.
- Lykinos: Please, stranger. I don't think I can walk.
Left with no options, Kassandra carried the man out of the camp.
- Lykinos: Just take me to my pater's house. It's in the Port of Kechries.
Once they are away from the camp, she realized they have a distance to go.
- Kassandra: This would be faster on horseback.
Kassandra riding with the young man to Kechries
She placed Lykinos on Phobos's back without getting up herself. She then rode to the port mentioned by the man.
- Kassandra: What did those bandits want with you?
- Lykinos: They said something about getting what they were owed... But I have no idea what they meant.
- Kassandra: You've never seen them before?
- Lykinos: Come to think of it... They did look familiar. A group of bandits have been harassing the port I grew up in for as long as I can remember.
Kassandra arrived at the house of the man's father
Kassandra arrived at the man's house.
- Lykinos: Here we are. Pater's house.
She carried him off Phobos and brought him into the residence.
- Lykinos: So... does my enchanting rescuer have a name?
- Kassandra: Kassandra.
Lykinos introduces himself
- Lykinos: Well met. I'm Lykinos, famed poet of Athens. I have come to visit my dear pater and brother. Speaking of which... Timotheos! I'm home! This is the lovely Kassandra. She rescued me on my way here. Where's...
His brother walked in, looking somber.
- Timotheos: Father's dead.
- Lykinos: What?
- Timotheos: He was killed a few days ago. By local bandits.
- Lykinos: And this is how you tell me?
- Timotheos: I need to prepare for the burial. I suggest you do the same.
Timotheos hands Kassandra reward
He handed Kassandra a reward.
- Timotheos: For saving my brother. If you're as tough as you look, I could use your help with something else before you go.
- Lykinos: Can you believe him?
- Kassandra: We all grieve differently. Your brother just lost his father, too.
Kassandra agrees to help the brothers
("I'll help you and your brother.")
- Kassandra: All right. I'll stay and help. How should I track down the bandits Timotheos mentioned?
- Lykinos: Their hideout is rumored to be just west of here in the Ruined Temple of Zeus.
- Kassandra: I'll make sure the bandits pay for what they did.
She walked out of the house, and saw Timotheos leaning against a pillar.
- Kassandra: Timotheos... You said you could use my help?
- Timotheos: My father served in the Athenian military. He deserves a proper burial in his Athenian armor. But that armor was stolen from our home not that long ago.
- Kassandra: You want me to get it back?
Timotheos asks Kassandra to obtain an Athenian armor
- Timotheos: No, my father said he saw the thief running out of town after he stole it. But the merchant should have some Athenian armor. Tell him it's for Diokles burial. They were friends.
- Kassandra: I'll get the armor for your father's burial.
She walked away, with tasks from both brothers.
Outcome[]
Kassandra rescued Lykinos and brought him to the house of his father, where she met his brother Timotheos.
