			The man suddenly appears behind Altaïr and insults his assailant, calling him "one of Al Mualim's [[Dog\|pups]]". The two fight, but the green-cloaked man easily holds his own. The man starts ranting, saying that although Al Mualim started by [[Initiation into the Assassin Order\|removing]] Altaïr's finger, he would [[Retaking of Masyaf\|gradually remove]] his pupil's freedoms and kill him once his usefulness ended. Altaïr silently elbows him in the nose and attempts a leaping attack, but is countered with an uppercut that knocks him flat.

	Altaïr follows him to a market place, but his target notices the Assassin's presence. Pretending to look at a [[merchant]]'s oranges in a market stall with an awning that obscures him from Altaïr's sight, he suddenly dashes up a flight of stairs behind the shopkeeper while Altaïr continues waiting on the opposite rooftop for the right time to strike.		The man pulls Altaïr close and insinuates that Al Mualim fathered not only many of the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins\|Levantine Assassins]], but also Altaïr himself. Altaïr, still quiet, headbutts the man, fatally stabs him in the gut with the [[Hidden Blade]], and closes the man's eyes. The words of Altaïr's debriefing with Al Mualim overlay the final panels. Al Mualim asks if Altaïr's target had said anything unusual, but Altaïr responds that what he offered was "nothing of consequence", to which the Mentor replies that the target had always been "a teller of tales".
	~~[[File:AC Penny Arcade Webcomic fight detail.jpg\|thumb\|\|left\|250px\|Detail panel of the fight]]~~
	Suddenly, the man startles Altaïr by appearing behind him, insulting his assailant by referring to him as "one of [[Al Mualim]]'s [[Dog\|pups]]". From there, the two engage in battle. Despite Altaïr's skill, the green-cloaked man holds his own, easily dodging a strike from the [[Hidden Blade]] and disarming Altaïr when he tried to grab his target's [[Short blade\|dagger]] to use against him.

	Whilst fighting, the man goads Altaïr about Al Mualim's [[Retaking of Masyaf\|intentions]], claiming he would slowly take away Altaïr's freedom and eventually kill him once he felt his pupil's usefulness has ended. However, Altaïr then found an opening and elbowed him in the face. With his target dazed, Altaïr backed away and attempted another leaping attack, only to be countered mid-air with a strong uppercut under the chin, sending him flat on the rooftop.

	The man pulls Altaïr close and ~~states~~ that Al Mualim ~~does~~ not ~~care for~~ the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins\|Levantine Assassins]] ~~and tries insinuate that Al Mualim could always father more~~, ~~for the man thought he could see the Mentor's face in his attacker~~. Altaïr, ~~seeing another opening~~, headbutts the man in the ~~nose and follows up~~ with ~~a lethal strike from~~ the Hidden Blade ~~to the stomach before~~ the man ~~can recover again~~.

	The words of Altaïr's debriefing with Al Mualim ~~at Masyaf~~ overlay the panels ~~of him delivering last rites to his dead target~~. Al Mualim asks if Altaïr's target had said anything unusual, but Altaïr ~~simply~~ responds that what he ~~had to offer~~ was "nothing of consequence", to which the Mentor replies that the target had always been "a teller of tales".

Hoping to get a better vantage point from which to [[Air assassination\|strike from above]], Altaïr [[Freerunning\|climbs]] to the rooftops and tracks his target from there, all while the man below remains wary of his surroundings yet unaware of what has changed in the crowd.

	~~Trailing~~ him~~, Altaïr swung from ledge to ledge, and made his way onto the rooftops in an effort~~ to ~~keep~~ a ~~closer eye on his target. However~~, his target ~~soon noticed~~ the Assassin's presence~~, and the green-cloaked man kept his guard up and proceeded~~ to look at ~~some~~ oranges on a ~~nearby~~ market stall, while Altaïr ~~continued to wait~~ on a rooftop for the right time to strike. Suddenly ~~however~~, the man ~~startled~~ Altaïr, by appearing behind him on the ~~rooftop~~, ~~having rushed up some stairs while out of~~ the ~~Assassin~~'s ~~sight~~.		Altaïr follows him to a market place, but his target notices the Assassin's presence. Pretending to look at a [[merchant]]'s oranges in a market stall with an awning that obscures him from Altaïr's sight, he suddenly dashes up a flight of stairs behind the shopkeeper while Altaïr continues waiting on the opposite rooftop for the right time to strike.

			Suddenly, the man startles Altaïr by appearing behind him, insulting his assailant by referring to him as "one of [[Al Mualim]]'s [[Dog\|pups]]". From there, the two engage in battle. Despite Altaïr's skill, the green-cloaked man holds his own, easily dodging a strike from the [[Hidden Blade]] and disarming Altaïr when he tried to grab his target's [[Short blade\|dagger]] to use against him.

	~~Making his presence known~~, ~~he then tried to insult~~ Altaïr ~~by referring to him as "''one of~~ Al Mualim's ~~pups~~''". ~~From there~~, the ~~two engaged in battle~~, ~~but fast as~~ Altaïr ~~was~~, the ~~man held his ground and managed to dodge any attack~~ the ~~Assassin made with his multiple weapons~~.		Whilst fighting, the man goads Altaïr about Al Mualim's [[Retaking of Masyaf\|intentions]], claiming he would slowly take away Altaïr's freedom and eventually kill him once he felt his pupil's usefulness has ended. However, Altaïr then found an opening and elbowed him in the face. With his target dazed, Altaïr backed away and attempted another leaping attack, only to be countered mid-air with a strong uppercut under the chin, sending him flat on the rooftop.

	~~[[File:Fght.jpg\|thumb\|right\|200px\|~~Altaïr ~~in combat with~~ the ~~target]]~~		The man pulls Altaïr close and states that Al Mualim does not care for the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins\|Levantine Assassins]] and tries insinuate that Al Mualim could always father more, for the man thought he could see the Mentor's face in his attacker. Altaïr, seeing another opening, headbutts the man in the nose and follows up with a lethal strike from the Hidden Blade to the stomach before the man can recover again.
	~~Whilst fighting, the man goaded Altaïr about~~ [[~~Retaking~~ of ~~Masyaf~~\|Al Mualim~~'s intentions]]~~, ~~claiming~~ he ~~would slowly take away Altaïr~~'s ~~freedom, and eventually kill him once he felt the need~~. Altaïr ~~then found himself in the midst of a headlock~~, ~~but soon caught an~~ opening in the ~~man's position~~ and ~~elbowed him in~~ the ~~face~~.

	With his target being dazed from his attack, Altaïr backed away while the man recovered, and proceeded to attempt an air assassination with his [[Hidden Blade]]. However, before he could do so, the man countered his move and punched Altaïr under the chin, sending him back to the ground.		The words of Altaïr's debriefing with Al Mualim at Masyaf overlay the panels of him delivering last rites to his dead target. Al Mualim asks if Altaïr's target had said anything unusual, but Altaïr simply responds that what he had to offer was "nothing of consequence", to which the Mentor replies that the target had always been "a teller of tales".

	Pulling him up, the man told Altaïr that Al Mualim did not care for his Assassins, and tried to torment him by telling him that his master could always father more, for the man thought that he could see Al Mualim's face in Altaïr's.
	~~Altaïr, frustrated and confused, made his final strike by headbutting the man in the nose which he had elbowed earlier and impaled his stomach~~ with ~~the Hidden Blade.~~

	~~Afterwards, Altaïr slid his hand over the dead man's face, closing his eyes, while the words of the conversation between~~ Al Mualim ~~and Altaïr~~ at Masyaf ~~showed~~. ~~After finishing his mission,~~ Al Mualim ~~asked the Assassin~~ if ~~his~~ target had said anything unusual, but Altaïr simply ~~responded~~ that what he had to offer was "nothing of consequence", ~~with~~ the [[Mentor~~]] of the [[Levantine Assassins]] replying~~ that the target had always been "a teller of tales".

Altaïr enters Acre on a mission from his [[Mentor]] [[Al Mualim]]. [[Blending]] into a crowd of [[priest]]s and [[civilian]]s, he spots his target, a heavily-built man in a green [[cape]]. Altaïr [[Freerunning\|climbs]] to the roofs to track his target from above, while the man remains wary of his surroundings yet unaware of what has changed. Altaïr follows the man to a [[merchant]]'s stall of oranges, but his target notices the Assassin's presence. Once he is obscured by the stall awning, he dashes up a flight of stairs behind the shopkeeper.[[File:AC Penny Arcade Webcomic fight detail.jpg\|thumb\|left\|250px\|Detail of Altaïr fighting his target]]
			The man suddenly appears behind Altaïr and insults his assailant, calling him "one of Al Mualim's [[Dog\|pups]]". The two fight, but the green-cloaked man easily holds his own. The man starts ranting, saying that although Al Mualim started by [[Initiation into the Assassin Order\|removing]] Altaïr's finger, he would [[Retaking of Masyaf\|gradually remove]] his pupil's freedoms and kill him once his usefulness ended. Altaïr silently elbows him in the nose and attempts a leaping attack, but is countered with an uppercut that knocks him flat.

Pretending to look at a [[merchant]]'s oranges in a market stall with an awning that obscures him from Altaïr's sight, he suddenly dashes up a flight of stairs behind the shopkeeper while Altaïr continues waiting on the opposite rooftop for the right time to strike.		The man pulls Altaïr close and insinuates that Al Mualim fathered not only many of the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins\|Levantine Assassins]], but also Altaïr himself. Altaïr, still quiet, headbutts the man, fatally stabs him in the gut with the [[Hidden Blade]], and closes the man's eyes. The words of Altaïr's debriefing with Al Mualim overlay the final panels. Al Mualim asks if Altaïr's target had said anything unusual, but Altaïr responds that what he offered was "nothing of consequence", to which the Mentor replies that the target had always been "a teller of tales".
