So It Begins Guide


Fight the thugs

This is another kind of intro battle. As in the Prologue, you’ll get hints on what you need to do with the two thugs to take them out. They’re simple, so don’t worry about the fact you’re without abilities.

Once they’re down, there’s another cutscene with Phoibe (voiced by Olivia Lebedeva-Alexopoulou), in which you’ll converse about a character named Markos (voiced by Damon Papadopoulos).

So It Begins Choices:

After said conversation, you’ll have a choice with the two thugs you fought:

  1. Get out of here
    You’ll set the both of them free, but there will also be a battle in which they get comrades to try and take you out a second time.
  2. You’re dead
    This is where you finish them off, and no more drama will ensue.

Climb up the shabby little house behind you and loot your Treasure, then put on your equipment.

Find and Talk to Markos

If you chose to spare the thugs in the beginning, then there will be an ambush waiting for you on the road to Kephallonia. You can spot the thugs via Ikaros and stealth attack most, if not all of them.

If you chose to kill them, then there’s nobody to worry about.

Head up the path to Markos, but before you get too close, notice that there’s a Treasure on the roof of the building in front of you. You’ll be stealing, but it won’t matter because nobody should see you, but also there are no bounty hunters yet.

Speak with Markos and he’ll talk about having a vineyard, despite the fact that the grapes won’t grow. He’s one of those guys that doesn’t seem to listen to logic…but at least he’s a super friendly guy, right? Anyway, a merchant named Duris owes payment and we’ll have to go collect it ourselves, because we’re threatening and nobody wants to talk back to a mercenary.

Thankfully, you don’t have to run the whole way there, as Markos is giving you a horse.

Honestly, it doesn’t really matter which you choose. While each one will have “benefits”, they aren’t really there. Choose which one you like the most. All of them are called Phobos in the end.

After this, you’ll enter another cutscene regarding Phoibe becoming kidnapped.
