The Accidental Philosopher

By
Nathan Garvin

Suggested Level: 20

Fast travel to Alexandria and head to the docks on the southern end of the city, where you’ll find a woman named Tjepu stomping around the market looking for her wayward son, Tefibi, who has aspirations of intellectual pursuits, and his wandering mind is accompanied by equally transient feet, it seems. Talk to her, accept and track the quest, then head southwest (just follow the coast) to reach the spot indicated by the quest marker.

Once there, Bayek will comment on the task at hand and in response an investigation area will pop up. Turn east and look at the… suspiciously bloody water and activate your Animus Pulse to confirm that there’s something to search there in the waves. First continue south along the shore and investigate some discarded clothing, then swim east and investigate the bloody water. After this, turn south and swim onto some rocks, being wary of some crocodiles (level 21) in the water nearby. Kill the crocs if they bother you, examine some more blood on a rock, then follow the blood trail south, southwest until it terminates in front of a small hut.

Gird yourself for the scene beyond and smash down the door to find Tefibi inside, surprisingly in good condition, considering he bled enough outside to account for the blood supply of several humans. Bayek will talk him into coming back with him, after which you’re charged with protecting Tefibi as you take him home. Turns out for good reason, too, as eventually four soldiers (level 20) will appear, accuse Tefibi of theft, and oblige you to protect the kid. Kill them, then talk to Tefibi to end this quest.

The year is 48 BCE, and both Rome and Ptolemaic Egypt are torn by civil wars. In the chaos caused by this political upheaval, a shadowy conspiracy seeks the mysteries buried under the sands of Egypt, not sparing any who stand in the way of their ambitions. One such aggrieved individual, Bayek, a Medjay from Siwa, now seeks revenge against this secret organization. Ultimately going back to the origins of the Assassin’s Brotherhood, Assassin’s Creed Origins is a rebirth of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, adding a vast open world, a revamped combat system and RPG elements to the prolific stealth-action series.
