Follow our step-by-step guide to complete the 'Abandoned by the Gods' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey, including finding Aspasia and speaking with Perikles.

Alright, so you've made it to the 'Abandoned by the Gods' quest in Assassin's Creed Odyssey. This one's a bit of a gut-punch because Athens isn't exactly in a great spot when you return. Your main goal here is to find Aspasia, but the game throws a little scene at you first.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you need to head back to Athens. As you approach the quest marker, a cutscene will kick in. You'll see Phoibe greet you, but then she'll dart off. Don't worry about chasing her; just let the scene play out.
  2. 2
    After the cutscene, you'll have the opportunity to question both Kleon and Sokrates about what's going on in Athens. This is your chance to get the lowdown on the city's current state.
  3. 3
    Once you've had your fill of questioning, it's time to find Aspasia. Head to her location, which should be marked on your map. Speak with her.
  4. 4
    Aspasia won't spill the beans about your mother just yet. She'll ask you to do something for her first: speak with Perikles. Find him and have a chat.
  5. 5
    After you've spoken with Perikles, return to Aspasia. She'll then be ready to talk to you about your mother, which is what you've been working towards.
Tips
  • Pay attention during the cutscenes; they give you a lot of context for what's happening in Athens.
  • Don't rush through the conversations with Kleon and Sokrates; they offer valuable insights into the political climate.
  • Make sure you've completed any prerequisite quests if you're having trouble finding Aspasia or Perikles – sometimes the game gates progress until you've tied up loose ends.
