	After a twenty-minute drive, Colm pulled into an underground car park that led to a basement filled with servers connected to an [[Animus]] in the middle of the room. A woman entered the basement, and Colm introduced her as Alera, his partner. Alera gestured for Joey to get on the Animus, explaining that Joey would experience the lives of certain people whose memories had been extracted from various individuals. Joey recalled that ''animus'' was latin for 'mind', and Alera was seemingly impressed, adding that it also meant spirit, consciousness, courage, and even anger. Joey laid down on the machine as Alera started it, placing Joey into the role of Cadmus, a Greek mercenary from the 5th century BCE.<ref name="Chapter 01" />		After a twenty-minute drive, Colm pulled into an underground car park that led to a basement filled with servers connected to an [[Animus]] in the middle of the room.

	Colm said that the blade had been kept in the [[Hagia Sophia]] until it was plundered in the early 13th century and taken, most likely, to [[Venice]]. Colm found a memory in 15th century Venice which could be useful and, since preservation and records become clearer after that period, this was probably the last memory they would need Joey for.

	Joey hopped off the Animus as Colm went to find a laptop to book their flights to Venice, seeing flashes of the people whose memories they had relived and closing their eyes to try and focus on the imagery. They opened their eyes to see Alera holding a gun to their forehead, announcing the Templars were coming and starting to pull the trigger, only for Colm to throw a hard drive at her head, allowing Joey to strike her with a roundhouse kick. Colm asked what she had said to them, before expressing that they needed to head to Venice as soon as possible, taking an indirect route through other airports.<ref name="Chapter 06" />		Joey hopped off the Animus as Colm went to find a laptop to book their flights to Venice, seeing flashes of the people whose memories they had relived and closing their eyes to try and focus on the imagery.

	They picked it up, hearing a metallic sound and following it to another area of the museum, as it grew louder and louder. At a room with a black monolith, Joey held the blade out without thinking, causing the monolith to glow with lines on its surface before Joey saw a vision of [[Sam (vision)\|Sam]]. In the vision, a man named [[Malcolm]] used a double-bladed version of the dagger Joey had found to control a tribe of people and almost killed Sam before an explosion shook Joey out from their vision.<ref name = "Prologue"/>		They picked it up, hearing a metallic sound and following it to another area of the museum, as it grew louder and louder.

	Joey felt the explosion had come from the direction the cube had been in and heard voices echoing down the corridors, saying their name and "blade".

	After a twenty-minute drive, Colm pulled into an underground car park that led to a basement filled with servers connected to an [[Animus]] in the middle of the room. A woman entered the basement, and Colm introduced her as Alera, his partner. Alera gestured for Joey to get on the Animus, explaining that Joey would experience the lives of certain people whose memories had been extracted from various individuals. Joey recalled that ''animus'' was latin for 'mind', and Alera was seemingly impressed, adding that it also meant spirit, consciousness, courage, and even anger.

	Joey resurfaced from the Animus to the voice of Alera saying they had to pull Joey out because their technology was a little temperamental, a statement punctuated by a shower of sparks erupting above her. Joey saw her barely flinch before leaving to get a new fuse. Colm explained [[synchronization]] to Joey and that they could use the information from the memory to track down the member of the [[Order of the Ancients]] who took half the blade out of Greece, tearing a piece of paper from a nearby machine before handing it to Joey.<ref name="Chapter 02">''Assassin's Creed: Escape Room Puzzle Book'' – Chapter 2: Training</ref>		Joey resurfaced from the Animus to the voice of Alera saying they had to pull Joey out because their technology was a little temperamental, a statement punctuated by a shower of sparks erupting above her.

	Joey looked at the seemingly random numbers and [[Isu script\|symbols]], which Alera informed them were from an ancient language as she reentered the room with the largest fuse Joey had ever seen and replacing the old one. Joey recalled seeing those symbols before as a child and drew what they could on a nearby chalkboard. Joey puzzled out that the man and the blade went to [[Egypt]], and the Assassin duo sent them into the memories of Khepri, an Egyptian Hidden One, where they discovered that the blade went to [[Baghdad]] next.<ref name="Chapter 02" />		Joey looked at the seemingly random numbers and [[Isu script\|symbols]], which Alera informed them were from an ancient language as she reentered the room with the largest fuse Joey had ever seen and replacing the old one.

	Joey was given some time off to rest at a hotel room arranged for them while Colm explored records of Baghdad. Insomnia kept them from sleeping before Colm called with a lead and asked Joey to return to the Animus chamber. Upon arrival, Alera threw them a metal cylinder, which they managed to catch, impressing even her and making Colm and Alera share an alarmed look. Opening the tube revealed an old parchment, a reproduction from a [[Templars\|Templar]] artifact, which Colm explained were their enemies who sought to control all.<ref name = "Chapter 03">''Assassin's Creed: Escape Room Puzzle Book'' – Chapter 3: Following the Trail</ref>		Joey was given some time off to rest at a hotel room arranged for them while Colm explored records of Baghdad.

	Joey opened the parchment to see a map of the Far East on one side and a series of sentences and instructions on another. With information about the starting point, which the Templars lacked, Joey managed to figure out that it was taken by the [[Hidden Ones]] to London. Alera was worried because they only had one available memory in London even close to the time: Alva, a ninth-century [[Vikings\|Viking]] of the [[Raven Clan]].<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>		Joey opened the parchment to see a map of the Far East on one side and a series of sentences and instructions on another.

	In those memories, Joey was able to find out that the blade went to [[Syria]] next. Another thing in the memory that interested them was an encounter with an Isu called Vejovis. Joey asked if Colm or Alera knew who he was, to which Colm responded that they had no records of an Isu with that name, but Alera mentioned they had one under ⟨V⟩. Colm advised that Vejovis was not to be trusted, with Isu objectives far beyond their understanding. Alera told Joey to get some rest, and while heading out, Joey saw the familiar face of [[Eivor Varinsdottir]] near the exit and bid goodbye to her, not realizing that their mind was playing tricks on them.<ref name = "Chapter 03"/>		In those memories, Joey was able to find out that the blade went to [[Syria]] next.

	Joey entered the Animus chamber the following morning, finding Alera and Colm whispering about the night before. Joey attempted to explain their odd behavior from the prior night, but Alera waved it off, reassuring Joey that coming out of the Animus was like waking from a vivid dream, and it took a moment to become completely aware of where one is. Joey nodded, sensing Colm was silent because he knew otherwise. Colm announced that he spent the night delving into records of Alva's links to Syria, saying there was only a small window of time where the owner of the blade was likely to have been: twelfth-century [[Damascus]], after the Order of the Ancients had become the Templars and the Syrian blade collection had been moved to a place known as "The Hideout".<ref name = "Chapter 04">''Assassin's Creed: Escape Room Puzzle Book'' – Chapter 4: Deceiving the Assassins</ref>		Joey entered the Animus chamber the following morning, finding Alera and Colm whispering about the night before.

	Alera mentioned they would send Joey into the memories not of someone in Damascus but into the memories of an Assassin at [[Masyaf]]. She added that Joey should try and ignore the instructions their host was given and head to Damascus to find The Hideout. Joey asked how they could change things so drastically, and Alera replied that if things went to plan, they would not have to, before starting the Animus and sending Joey into the memories of Faisal.<ref name = "Chapter 04"/>		Alera mentioned they would send Joey into the memories not of someone in Damascus but into the memories of an Assassin at [[Masyaf]].

Line 30:		Line 36:
	Joey relived the memories without issue until Faisal saw his own reflection and Joey saw Vejovis' face looking back. Joey was so startled they lurched upwards and out of the Animus. Colm asked Alera if it was a glitch, with the systems bleeding over from one simulation to another, but she responded that it did not work that way and that if Joey saw Vejovis, it meant he was there. Colm pondered if that meant Faisal was a [[Sage]], and Alera explained to Joey what that meant, including that the simulation could have confused Faisal's genetics with Vejovis', which would explain the identical face. Joey wondered aloud if Malcolm was a Sage, and Alera noted it was likely. Joey informed Alera and Colm that the blade went to [[Constantinople]]. Joey was still feeling the leg injury Faisal had gotten in the memory, and when they looked down to their hand, they saw it with a finger missing.<ref name = "Chapter 04"/>		Joey relived the memories without issue until Faisal saw his own reflection and Joey saw Vejovis' face looking back.

	After a night with dreams filled with Assassins, both things they had seen in the Animus and some they could not have known about, Joey walked back into the Animus chamber, seeing only Alera, who greeted them with surprising warmth. Joey responded aggressively before apologizing, to which Alera said it was okay because the Animus tended to seep into one's mind the more it is used. At that point, Colm entered the room, warning that Joey was suffering from what they called the [[Bleeding Effect]]; the memories they'd been reliving blending into their own. The Assassin pair had hoped that by keeping the memories with each host as short as they could, there would not be any time for it to happen, remarking that it was unprecedented in its speed. Alera stated it was imperative they find the missing blade.<ref name = "Chapter 05">''Assassin's Creed: Escape Room Puzzle Book'' – Chapter 5: A Hidden Tomb</ref>		After a night with dreams filled with Assassins, both things they had seen in the Animus and some they could not have known about, Joey walked back into the Animus chamber, seeing only Alera, who greeted them with surprising warmth.

	With the threat averted, Joey put the two halves of the blade together, causing a blinding flash of light to erupt. After Joey said Vejovis' name out loud, a hologram of the Isu appeared, congratulating Joey on bringing the two parts of the dagger together and making it possible for him to become corporeal again. Alera tried to attack the hologram, but Vejovis made Joey swipe at her before revealing that they were one of his Sages and that by reliving the memories of their other Sages and connecting the blades, Vejovis' being would bleed into Joey's before long. To stop this process from happening, Joey tried to separate the blades, shattering one half of it, and destroyed the part of the pedestal that the hologram was coming from. After that, Joey and Alera decided to leave before the Templars got there, with Joey taking the intact half of the blade.<ref name = "Chapter 06"/>		With the threat averted, Joey put the two halves of the blade together, causing a blinding flash of light to erupt.
