Side Quest: Family Legacy

Follow our guide to complete the 'Family Legacy' side quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. Meet your father on Thera and uncover ancient secrets.

Alright, so you've picked up the 'Family Legacy' side quest from Myrrine on Naxos. This one's a neat little prelude to the 'Home Sweet Home' quest later on, and it's where you'll finally meet your actual father. He's hanging out on the island of Thera, which is just southwest of Naxos. So, hop on the Adrestia and let's set sail!

Before we get to Thera, there are a couple of spots near Naxos worth checking out for some sweet loot. First up is the Shipwreck of Dionysos and the Pirate Beach, both southwest of Naxos. Then, head southeast to Kalantos Bay. Be warned though, this bay is crawling with bandits who love their fire weapons. If you get hit by a few of those at once, it's game over, man. Your best bet is to use the bushes and foliage to sneak up on them for some assassination kills before you have to face their leader head-on. Once you've cleared out the loot spots, head back to the Adrestia. Oh, and if you're running low on hides, there's a tiny island southeast of Naxos called Alektryon's Rest. It's basically overrun by killer chickens, so it's an easy place to farm hides.

Now, with those local objectives done, it's time to sail south to Thera. As you approach, aim for the bay on the northwest side and dock your ship. Once you're on land, whip out Ikaros to scout the area. You're looking for a chest – use your eagle to pinpoint its location. Head over there and open it up. Inside, you'll find a note that talks about aligning mirrors to open a big triangular door located below the chest. Look towards the southeast, and you'll see beams of light bouncing off movable mirrors. Your first task is to smash the wooden barricade that's blocking the beam from going west. Follow that light westward, and you'll eventually find...
