Cassandra, and her brother, Helenus were twins. They both had the gift of prophetry; however, Apollo ordained that Cassandra should not be belived even though her prophecies were true. When her younger brother Paris was born, she predicted that he would bring ruin to Troy; so he was left for dead in a neighboring area. Paris was found and raised by a peasant, but returned to Troy later. He did bring about the seige of Troy when he brought his lover Helen there; her husband and his brother, Agamemnon, followed. Cassandra predicted the sack of Troy, and warned against accepting the large wooden horse. However, she was treated as a lunatic by her father Priam and most everyone else as well. After Troy was defeated, she was taken as spoils by Agamemnon to Mycenae. There, was killed by Agamemnon's wife, Clytemnestra; just as she herself forsaw.
