	==History==		==History==
	~~[[File:Headquarters.png\|thumb\|left\|250px\|The Assassin citadel in Alep]]~~		The Citadel of Alep was one of many castles that the Assassins used as their headquarters during the Third Crusade. The city was under the control of the [[Ayyubid dynasty\|Ayyubid Sultanate]], but the [[Saracens]] and Assassins tolerated one another's presence and cooperated in the city. In 1190, it even served as the main base for [[Al Mualim]] and his lieutenant Harash.<ref name="Coming Home">''[[Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles]]'' – [[Coming Home]]</ref>

	As a result, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad operated primarily from this city that year. It was while returning to it after having completed one of his missions that he found the outskirts of the city attacked by [[Crusaders]]. The Crusaders were keen on locating the legendary relic called [[Adha\|the Chalice]], and had pursued an Assassin agent to a village just outside Alep for information. After retrieving this information from the Assassin, whom they killed, they proceeded to massacre the entire village and raze it to the ground.<ref name="~~ACAC~~" />		As a result, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad operated primarily from this city that year.

	Altaïr ultimately managed to assassinate the commanding officer of this Crusader detachment, and he and the survivors were able to alert the nearby Assassin citadel, which mounted a counter-attack shortly afterwards. As soon as he returned, Altaïr was briefed on his new assignment: to [[Quest for the Chalice\|recover]] the Chalice lest it should fall into the hands of the Crusaders or Saracens.<ref name="~~ACAC~~" />		Altaïr ultimately managed to assassinate the commanding officer of this Crusader detachment, and he and the survivors were able to alert the nearby Assassin citadel, which mounted a counter-attack shortly afterwards.

	When he returned later that year, Altaïr did so covertly, rather than as an ally. He had managed to find the Chalice, but it had turned out to be a woman, none other than a friend he loved named Adha. Adha had informed him of the treachery of Harash, Keeper of the Assassins, who had been bribed by the [[Templars]] to serve as their spy. As a result, the Assassins under direct control by Harash were colluding with the Templars, whether they knew it or not, and the Templars themselves were able to enter to meet with Harash in secret, compromising the stronghold's security. Although Altaïr managed to cleanse the fortress, killing Harash, Al Mualim relocated to [[Masyaf]] ~~as their main base~~ the next year.<ref name="~~ACAC~~" />		When he returned to Alap later that year, Altaïr did so covertly, rather than as an ally.

	Later, after Altaïr's failure at [[Solomon's Temple]], the city was recalled by an [[~~Informants~~\|informant]] in [[Damascus]], during the assassination attempt on [[Abu'l Nuqoud]]. The man asked Altaïr about Adha and mentioned their past adventures in Alep, but the Assassin quickly dissolved the conversation, not wishing to be reminded of the tragedy that had followed from that point.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref>		Later, after Altaïr's failure at [[Solomon's Temple]], the city was recalled by an Assassin [[Informer\|informant]] in [[Damascus]], during the assassination attempt on [[Abu'l Nuqoud]].
