	On 15 November 2017, the Assassins managed to track Nathalie to a remote facility in the [[Alps\|Swiss Alps]], at which point Hajime halted Tomo's Animus session. However, suffering from the [[Bleeding Effect]] and believing himself to be Gavrani, Tomo killed Hajime and all his men, whom he mistook for members of Pash's [[Bloodstone Unit]]. After returning to his senses, Tomo mourned the death of his mentor and vowed to stop Nathalie's plans by himself.<ref name="ACBs 2">''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodstone]]'' – ''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodstone Book 2\|Book 2]]''</ref>		On 15 November 2017, the Assassins managed to track Nathalie to a remote facility in the [[Alps\|Swiss Alps]], at which point Hajime halted Tomo's Animus session.

	Infiltrating Nathalie's base, Tomo convinced a captive Elisa Adler to help him and planted a virus in the facility's network. While the guards were transporting Maxime Gorm, Tomo seized the opportunity to finally ~~kill~~ the Templar, after which he confronted Nathalie. Telling her about the virus, Tomo bargained for his and Elisa's freedom in exchange for the virus encryption key. Nathalie accepted, but as she inserted the key, she discovered it to be another virus, which caused the facility's cooling system to ~~fail~~. Having escaped in a helicopter, Tomo and Elisa watched as the base blew up, killing Nathalie and destroying the Apple of Eden in her possession.<ref name="ACBs 2" />		Infiltrating Nathalie's base, Tomo convinced a captive Elisa Adler to help him and planted a virus in the facility's network.

	A relatively new Assassin Guild, the Japanese Brotherhood was formed in response to the [[Templars]]' efforts to expand their influence to Japan after suffering a streak of defeats at the hands of the Assassins in [[Europe]]. The first Assassin to arrive in the country, [[Alvaro Catarribera]], aimed to prevent this and founded the Kakushiba ''ikki'' alongside his apprentice, [[Fujibayashi Tsuyu]]. While seeking the support of Emperor [[Tomohito\|Go-Nara]] against the Templars, the Japanese Assassins were given the [[Imperial Regalia of Japan\|Imperial Regalia]] for safekeeping, and protection of the artifacts subsequently became the Brotherhood's main objective.
