| 5.2 STORY | [CDSTR]
o-----------------o
Determined to destroy Soul Edge on behalf of her sister, Cassandra left her
home. In the mountains to the east, she happened upon a city where the
residents had lost their minds from the effects of evil energy.
"What's going on?" The fragment she held reacted strongly to this place.
Soul Edge was somehow involved in this bizarre phenomenon. She made up her
mind to free the city.
"My sister was able to do it... I can, too!" she said to herself. But then
something unexpected occurred -- cracks appeared in the sword and shield she
had taken from the temple of Hephaestus.
Feeling deeply apprehensive, there was nothing Cassandra could do but to
flee the city. She felt completely helpless -- she may have used her sword n'
shield a bit roughly, but she couldn't believe that arms made from holy ore
could be damaged.
As she gazed at her damaged sword and shield, the image of her sister and
her young niece and nephew flashed through the back of her mind. Her sister
smiled happily, leading her children by the hand...
"No... I can't give up." Cassandra's eyes shone once again with
determination. She returned to Greece to consult with her blacksmith brother
-in-law, Rothion. Unexpected news was waiting for her upon her return home,
however.
During Cassandra's absence, Sophitia had once again set out on a journey to
destroy Soul Edge.
"Damn you, Haphaestus! This is all your fault!" Cassandra cursed to herself,
though she didn't consider her sister having regained her previous strong will
to be completely bad news.
She had to help her sister. She would stand by her and support her.
After receiving a new sword and shield from Rothion, Cassandra set out with
a pure purpose in her heart, with the early dawn's soft light shining upon her
back.
o-------------------o
| 5.3 REMARKS | [CDRMK]
o-------------------o
Why do I use Cassandra? For several reasons:
- She has a beautiful name: Cassandra!
- She's very cute, also a playful girl. Her style is very impressive as well.
Watch all her movies n' events, you'll see.
- She's a good character. Very agile n' easy-to-use, especially in close
combat n' counter-attack. You won't be disappointed once used her!
