Follow our Assassin's Creed Odyssey walkthrough for the 'Island of Misfortune' quest. Find Xenia on Keos, pay the drachmae, and get the info you need.

Alright, so you've got a quest called "Island of Misfortune," and it's pointing you towards a rather notorious pirate named Xenia. She's hanging out on the island of Keos, which you'll find southeast of Athens. Don't worry, it's not too far a sail.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, sail to Keos. Head for the northern part of the island and find a place to dock your ship.
  2. 2
    Once you're ashore, make your way to the Temple of Athena Nedousia. It's a pretty significant landmark, so you shouldn't miss it.
  3. 3
    When you get there, whip out Ikaros, your trusty eagle. Use him to scout the area around the temple. He'll help you get your bearings and spot any immediate threats or points of interest.
  4. 4
    After scouting, head towards the temple entrance. You'll need to interact with the door to kick things off. This will trigger a cutscene.
  5. 5
    During the cutscene, you'll meet Xenia and start a dialogue. She's got the info you need, but as you'll quickly find out, information comes at a price.
  6. 6
    Xenia will tell you she can give you what you're looking for, but it'll cost you a hefty 15,000 drachmae.
  7. 7
    Important Note: If you're short on cash right now, don't sweat it! You can always focus on completing some side quests or other main quests to build up your funds. You'll be looting plenty of chests in upcoming quests, which will help reimburse you for this expense.
  8. 8
    If you've got the 15,000 drachmae, go ahead and pay Xenia. Another cutscene will play after you hand over the money.
  9. 9
    Once the cutscene wraps up, you'll have the opportunity to ask Xenia any follow-up questions you might have. After your chat, you can bid her farewell, and that's it – quest complete!
Tips
  • Keep an eye on your drachmae. That 15,000 is a significant chunk of change early on, so plan accordingly if you're not quite there yet.
  • Looting chests is your best friend for recouping costs. Make sure you're thorough in your exploration during subsequent quests.
