Biography[]
In the mid-1st century BCE, Kade worked in the farmlands of Kyrenaika, providing for his mother, Nenet, who was blind. Over time, Kade and the other farmers befriended a Greek healer, Praxilla.[1]
Around 47 BCE, the proconsul of Cyrenaica, Flavius Metellus, passed by the farmlands during his journey from Siwa to Cyrene. While there, Flavius used the relic he had recovered Siwa, testing its power on the farmers in the region. Kade, his mother, and several others were unaffected by the relic. However, Kade and the unaffected farmers were taken away to work in the Kyrenaika Roman Citadel, forced to work on weapons for the Roman army.[2]
During his time in the citadel, Kade learned of a weapon the Romans were developing, based on a formula by the architect Vitruvius. At some point, Kade and the other farmers attempted to rebel, resulting in them being locked in cages in the camp outside the citadel. However, he and the other farmers were eventually freed by the Medjay Bayek of Siwa. After Bayek escorted them out of the camp, he told Kade that his mother was taken to safety in Balagrae. Before leaving for Balagrae, Kade told Bayek about the weapons that the Romans were working on, directing him to Vitruvius.[3]
Eventually Kade found his mother in Balagrae, and they would sit and talk, when Kade was not fighting with passing Roman soldiers.[1]
