	Although Babylonia had by then ceased to be a sovereign entity, the Order was still active when [[Middle East\|western Asia]] fell to the [[Makedonia\|Macedonian Empire]] of Alexander the Great. Iltani set out to assassinate Alexander during his campaign in what is now modern-day [[Afghanistan]], but she was forced to withdraw when she found him too well-guarded in the citadel of [[Herat]].

			In 862 CE, the [[Hidden Ones of Alamut\|Hidden One]] from [[Alamut]] [[Tabid Al-Nubi]] tried to recreate Iltani's poison.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Mirage]]'' - [[Taking Flight]]</ref>

			In the 14th century, even after the Hidden Ones became the Assassins Brotherhood, the Babylonian Brotherhood was still revered. In the [[Sanctuary]] of [[Monteriggioni]], the [[Italian Brotherhood of Assassins\|Italian Assassin]] [[Domenico Auditore]] put a sculpture of Iltani among five other important members of the Brotherhood. Auditore created a seal for each sculpture to lock the [[Armor of Altaïr\|Armor]] of the [[Levantine Brotherhood of Assassins\|Levantine]] [[Mentor]] [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].<ref name="AC2"/> By the 15th century, Iltani's seal was hidden in the lantern of the [[Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore]] in [[Florence]]. It was recovered by Domenico's great-grandson [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], who brought it back to the Sanctuary to unlock the Armor.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' - [[Il Duomo's Secret]]</ref>

			In 1841, during the Siege of Herat, the [[Indian Brotherhood of Assassins\|Indian Assassin]] [[Arbaaz Mir]] used his [[Eagle Vision]] and discovered Iltani's scrolls hidden across the citadel.<ref name="ACCI"/>

			In 2000, the [[Mentor (2000)\|Mentor]] possessed a statue of Iltani in his office of [[Dubai]] among other members.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]'' - [[Assassin's Creed: The Fall 3\|Issue #3]]</ref>
