==History==
In 1552, a contigent of Knights of the Order were dispatched to the [[China|Chinese]] island of [[Shangchuan Island|Shangchuan]] under the command of Machado, tracking down fellow Templar [[Francis Xavier]] and the [[Precursor box]] in his possession. The knights killed Xavier and his entourage, taking the relic with them, and awaited exfiltration by way of a Portuguese merchant ship bound for [[Nagasaki]] the following morning, where Vilela awaited them. However, their ship was attacked by a [[junk]], possibly belonging to the [[Piracy|pirates]] that dwelled around Shangchuan or to the [[Ming military]], and, at the same time, it was infiltrated by [[Assassins]] that managed to recover the box.<ref name="Lost Box"/>
