The Shifty Scribe

Prerequisite: Complete Main Quest: End of the Snake

Suggested Level: 11

Reward: 500 XP

Find and Rescue Aristo

Aristo’s wife, Callista (1), asks Bayek to help her husband escape the city. Bayek, moved by her story, agrees to help free the man.

Exit Callista’s home, near the Sarapeion. Send Senu up to find Aristo. He is in a jail cart (2) driven by a soldier who is escorted by several Level 11 soldiers. You can find them on the main road in central Alexandria near Aya’s home.

It does no good to just commandeer the jail cart, as you need to carry Aristo to safety and you can’t do that with an entire platoon after you. So come up behind the caravan on your horse and begin stealthily picking off guards with arrows to the head.

Bring Aristo to the Port

Carry Aristo out of the cage and put him on a horse. Carry Aristo to the port to the south. As you near, you’ll see a marker on a boat (3) where Callista is waiting. Ride the horse on board. Take Aristo off the horse and put him on the boat in the marker.

Speak to Aristo

Speak to Aristo to complete the quest.
