A lot has been written about the epic story of Assassin's Creed Odyssey, and it's true that the main quests of the game span a massive map and take players on a journey that blends myth, mystery, and the requisite boatloads of murder. But I think the game is at its best in its quieter beats. Far from the battle against the Cult of Kosmos or the search for Alexios or Kassandra's family are the Silver Islands of Mykonos and Delos. They are home to a pair of revolutionaries who are very much in love, bound together in a battle driven by hate. These are Kyra and Thaletas, and when the player character arrives to aid their rebellion, their story becomes one of Odyssey's best and most tragic arcs.
