The Final Push was a virtual representation of one of Kassandra's genetic memories, relived by Layla Hassan through the Portable Animus HR-8.5.
Description
Having weakened the Athenian hold on Megaris, Kassandra returned to Stentor to report her success.
Dialogue
Kassandra returned to Stentor at the Spartan camp near Pagai.
- Stentor: I hear good things from my commanders, mercenary. What news do you have?
- Kassandra: The Athenian commander is dead. Megaris is ready to fall.
- Stentor: Good. The Wolf has ordered the attack. I'm glad you're here to join us on our march to glory.
- Kassandra: I'm proud to fight by your side.
- Stentor: Yes... You have earned your place.
- Kassandra: It's about time we took the fight to the Athenians.
- Stentor: Yes, it's time they felt the wrath of Sparta! Come, kleos (glory) awaits.
- Kassandra: It's what I was born to do...
- Stentor: We will win the day for Sparta and the Wolf. Come, we must reach the forward camp.
- Kassandra: I am ready.
- Stentor: Follow me. We must prepare for the battle ahead.
- Kassandra: So, tell me about the Wolf.
- Stentor: He is a great man. He will lead Sparta to victory against the—
- Kassandra: No, no! What is he like as a man, as a father?
- Stentor: He... he is to be admired, strong, caring in his way. But sometimes, I—
- Kassandra: Yes?
- Stentor: Nothing. Just, he gets this faraway look in his eyes, and I sense a sadness there. He is Sparta's general, but he is also made of flesh and blood. Life cannot be lived without some regrets.
- Kassandra: I'll see you at the camp.
- Stentor: Very well, but don't delay. We attack soon.
- Stentor: Are you ready to crush the Athenians?
- Kassandra: I'm ready for war.
Kassandra joined the Spartans on the field of battle against the Athenians. After defeating their foes in a drawn-out conflict, Kassandra again met with Stentor. Their victory was interrupted by an arriving soldier.
- Sparta Light Soldier: The Wolf has requested the presence of the mercenary.
- Stentor: We shall be up to him in a moment.
- Sparta Light Soldier: With respect, he wishes to see the mercenary alone.
- Stentor: What?
- Spartan Light Soldier: I said the Commander wishes...
- Stentor: I heard what you said. I just don't understand why.
- Spartan Light Soldier: Those were his orders, sir.
- Stentor: Very well.
The soldier departed, leaving Stentor and Kassandra alone.
- Stentor: It appears I have other matters to attend to.
Outcome
Kassandra helped the Spartans in their final battle against Athens in Megaris, helping them to defeat the Athenians and conquer the region. By doing so, she was granted the opportunity to meet Nikolaos face to face.
