	During these investigations, the Assassins learned how Clay had managed to hack Abstergo's Animus before his death, and that in doing so, he had placed 20 glyphs throughout the Animus system, which were subsequently rendered in the visual memories. These encrypted files, which had been saved onto the Abstergo Animus' memory core that Lucy had stolen, were later unknowingly transferred to [[Rebecca Crane]]'s Animus 2.0.<ref name="AC2" />		During these investigations, the Assassins learned how Clay had managed to hack Abstergo's Animus before his death, and that in doing so, he had placed 20 glyphs throughout the Animus system, which were subsequently rendered in the visual memories.

	Following Vidic's hideout [[raid]] on 15 September,<ref>''Assassin's Creed: Initiates'' – The Desmond Files: "Under Attack"</ref> Desmond, Lucy, Rebecca, and [[Shaun Hastings]] retreated to the last Assassin safehouse in Italy, the [[Villa Auditore]] in [[Monteriggioni]].

	Within each rift, Desmond solved a cluster puzzle, which then unlocked a piece of a file. Upon compiling them, they revealed a distorted video with the message ''"the miracle is in the execution"'', suggesting that, unlike the video hidden in the Glyphs, the Rifts instead concealed an executable file. Upon accessing it, Desmond found himself in an unknown area within the Animus and was able to run through a long virtual maze.<ref name="ACB" />		Within each rift, Desmond solved a cluster puzzle, which then unlocked a piece of a file.

	Following Clay's physical death, the Templars were left without the [[Vatican Vault]]'s location, though they had gained the knowledge that another Assassin, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, had once seen a [[Isu map\|map]] projected by [[Apple of Eden 2\|another Apple of Eden]] that could help them find it.

	By accessing private [[emails]] between Animus sessions, Desmond discovered one that Lucy had written to Dr. Vidic detailing the Bleeding Effect and how it was connected to Clay. She expressed her concern in pushing Desmond too hard, however, Vidic never replied to her message and deleted it shortly after it arrived.<ref name="VidicEmail">''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' – [[Warren Vidic's email\|Warren Vidic's email: "Subject No. 16"]]</ref> Through the files unlocked in the glyphs Clay had created within the Animus, Desmond also learned many secrets about the Templars both in the past and in his own time.<ref name="ACB" />		By accessing private [[emails]] between Animus sessions, Desmond discovered one that Lucy had written to Dr. Vidic detailing the Bleeding Effect and how it was connected to Clay.
