    Agamemnon:"And that's how I died. What about you, Odysseus?"
    Odysseus:"Actually I'm still alive."

    Cassandra is such a tragic character. Cursed by Apollo with foresight yet nobody would believe her simply because she rejected him. I never knew this was how she died which makes her story even sadder.

      Not to mention she was sexually assaulted by Ajax the Lesser during the sack of Troy, in Athena's temple no less. She took refuge there to pray for protection from the Gods.

      According to the "Agamemnon" of Aeschylus, Cassandra had a last vision before she entered to the palace. She KNEW that she would gonna be killed and could not avoid it.
      The only satisfaction for her is that she will be avenged and Clitemnestra would also die by her own family

Agetius wanted to b Agamemnon, her and her lover deserved death.
