Therefore, when Sophitia disappeared again a few years
later, Cassandra was certain that her sister had left to contend with Soul Edge once more. One day, after running errands for her family's bakery, Cassandra
visited Sophitia's home. There she saw a familiar metal shard. It was
undoubtedly a fragment of Soul Edge.

Angered by her sister's panicked reaction to the shard,
Cassandra ran to the Hephaestus Shrine.

"Why are you doing this to my sister? How can you claim
to be an almighty god? Answer me!" Cassandra screamed.

Her voice reverberated throughout the desolate hallowed
grounds. Cassandra collapsed on the floor, worn out from shouting. It was then
that she saw the metal fragment resonating with the holy sword blessed by
Hephaestus.

She realized then that Soul Edge was still alive. But she
could not allow her sister to carry the burden any longer.

Around the time when light began to filter in from the
eastern skies, the holy weapon disappeared from the temple.

### Soul Calibur 3

Determined to destroy Soul Edge on behalf of her sister,
Cassandra left her home. In the mountains to the east, she happened upon a city
where the residents had lost their minds from the effects of evil energy.

"What's going on?" The fragment she held reacted
strongly to this place. Soul Edge was somehow involved in this bizarre
phenomenon. She made up her mind to free the city.

"My sister was able to do it… I can, too!" she
said to herself. But then something unexpected occurred—cracks appeared in the
sword and shield she had taken from the temple of Hephaestus.

Feeling deeply apprehensive, there was nothing Cassandra
could do but to flee the city. She felt completely helpless—she may have used
her sword and shield a bit roughly, but she couldn't believe that arms made
from holy ore could be damaged.

As she gazed at her damaged sword and shield, the image of
her sister and her young niece and nephew flashed through the back of her mind.
Her sister smiled happily, leading her children by the hand…

"No… I can't give up." Cassandra's eyes shone once
again with determination. She returned to Greece to consult with her blacksmith
brother-in-law, Rothion. Unexpected news was waiting for her upon her return
home, however.

During Cassandra's absence, Sophitia had once again set out
on a journey to destroy Soul Edge.

"Damn you, Hephaestus! This is all your fault!"
Cassandra cursed to herself, though she didn't consider her sister having
regained her previous strong will to be completely bad news.

She had to help her sister. She would stand by her and
support her.

After receiving a new sword and shield from Rothion,
Cassandra set out with a pure purpose in her heart, with the early dawn’s soft
light shining upon her back.

### Soul Calibur 4

Cassandra set out once again for the town she has visited
before Eastern Europe, hoping to find more clues that would lead her to Soul
Edge. But as she hurried through the night, a man appeared before her. His eyes
were stained red; she was reminded of the story she had heard about a swordsman
who had led the mad townsfolk.

"You have a piece of Soul Edge, don't you? I can feel
it," the man said, and in an instant he was upon her. After a hard fight,
she was able to finally land a blow on her assailant, but he only sneered at
Cassandra and vanished, "So, girl, you can ward off evil, though not as
strong as the Holy Stone. Interesting. I'll let you live... for now."

"You're going to run?! You coward!"

A laugh echoed around her. "I already have what I came
for." Panicked, Cassandra searched her tunic, but the fragment of the
cursed sword was gone.

Unnerved at first, Cassandra pushed those unhelpful feelings
down and headed for the town, where she discovered some townsfolk still
retained their sanity. In fact, they had been healed—by shining blue crystal.
Could it be the Holy Stone the swordsman had mentioned? She set out to learn
more, and then a rumor caught her attention: a man carrying a mass of crystal
as tall as himself was on his way to Osthreinsburg. If the crystal he bore had
the power to smite evil, then that could only mean some evil presence lurked in
the ruined castle there. Was it Soul Edge?! Cassandra decided to follow the man
to Osthreinsburg and find out.

Cassandra does not know that she's following Soul Calibur,
the spirit sword that was made to destroy Soul Edge.

Eventually, she infiltrated the home of the cursed sword,
Osthreinsburg Castle. But who stood in her path was none other than Sophitia,
who surrendered to the evil sword after her daughter was taken hostage.
Cassandra was so shocked, that she was knocked out unconscious from a single
strike from her sister. By the time Cassandra woke up, her surroundings were
warped into a strange place. With the destruction of Soul Edge, the MediaWiki:Badtitletext that corrupted the castle began to contract quickly. Dragging her injured
body along as she looked for Sophitia, she finally found her sister's collapsed
body in one of the castle's rooms. Cassandra rushed over there instantly. Just
at that moment, a rift to another dimension opened in front of her eyes. Several moments later, the castle's surroundings returned to normal, but
there was no sign of Cassandra's figure.

## Endings

### Soul Calibur 2

Wielding weapons once dedicated to Hephaestus, Cassandra vanquished the
evil. Her sister's precious sword and shield bore the scars from countless
battles. So great was Cassandra's concern about the weapon, she forgot that she
destroyed the demonic blade. She need not worry, for surely her sister would be
overjoyed with her safe return.

### Soul Calibur 3

Cassandra leaps into the air, sword in hand, towards Soul Edge. She destroys
the cursed sword, but is thrown back by the force released by the cursed sword.
Cassandra groans and looks at the spot where Soul Edge was, seeing a rather
large, long piece of pointed metal spinning in one place before falling down.
Cassandra looks at her sword and gasps, seeing that its blade has broken in
half. She crawls up to her broken sword, wondering what to do.

Later, Cassandra returns to the Temple of Hephaestus with her sword,
apparently in one piece, sneaking towards its shrine to put it back.

#### Input

Sophitia calls out to Cassandra from
behind. Cassandra is unable to place the sword back when she turns around,
startled, to Sophitia, hiding the sword behind her back. As, Sophitia expresses
how relieved that she's okay,Cassandra leaps from the shrine and cautiously
approaches Sophitia, telling her that she's fine. A clank is heard on the
ground. Cassandra and Sophitia look down to see the broken piece of the sword,
which Cassandra had dropped. Sophitia faces Cassandra, looking most displeased.

Later Cassandra works in a forge
(possibly Rothion's), sobbing and hitting the broken sword with a hammer. She
holds up the sword, with the broken piece seemingly fixed but then it falls
back off. She slumps back and cries, "I don't know how to fix it..."

#### No Input

Cassandra lets out a sigh of relief
as she places the sword back when her sister Sophitia calls out to her,
startling her. After Sophitia expresses how relieved that she's okay, Cassandra
replies that she's fine, but the sword isn't in the best shape. As Sophitia
starts to show concern for the sword, Cassandra quickly says that there's no
use for them hanging around. Cassandra leaps from the shrine and hastily leads
Sophitia away, telling her they should go home,

As they leave, the sword falls down
in two pieces behind them.

### Soul Calibur 4

Algol stumbles
back and collapses, defeated, and Soul Edge and Soul Calibur fall to the
ground. Cassandra charges towards Soul Calibur, picks it up and runs over to
Soul Edge, holding the spirit sword over it. As Algol looks on, Cassandra
thrusts Soul Calibur into Soul Edge's eye; a burst of evil energy emanates from
the demonic sword, then dies away. Soul Calibur begins to speak to Cassandra,
saying, "With this, the evil presence will cease to exist. The perfect
world will now be born." Cassandra replies, "The evil presence? Well,
there's still one left...right here!" Cassandra grabs Soul Calibur by the
hilt and attempts to break it with her bare hands, while everything around them
begins to shake. Soul Calibur exclaims, "Foolish girl! Wh-what do you
think you are doing? You dare to extinguish the light of humanity just to suit
yourself?!" Cassandra answers, "After what you've done to Sophitia,
you call yourself the light of humanity? Get serious!" Cassandra
inexplicably snaps Soul Calibur in half with her bare hands, and the screen
fades to white. Cassandra's voice can be heard, softly saying "Let's go
home, Sophitia."

A line of text
appears which reads: "She carried out her conviction and protected the
bonds of family. There will be peace, as long as that belief remains."

## Critical Finish

**Final Crush:** In Cassandra's Critical Finish, she slashes her opponent
then playfully knocks them over with her rear. She ridicules her opponent by
asking, "You like this kind of stuff?" and then she sits on the
opponent's face with clouds of pink hearts appearing. For the fatal hit, she
places her shield over her rear before smashing down once more with a pink
heart covering part of the screen. She then stands up and exclaims
"Ow!".
