	As Yusuf suspected, we encountered several Templar agents on the long road to Antalya, and battles had to be fought; all most discouraging. But we managed to prevail and lead Korkut and his men to the Prince's lodgings. In return for our protection, Korkut has provided us with sufficient arms and powder as if to supply the Sultan's army. We are now well equipped to deal with the rising Templar tide. I had hoped to return north, to Istanbul, in a matter of a couple of days, but news received from outside sources demands our attention. Today, while preparing for our trip, Yusuf received a message from one of our contacts in Rhodes, informing us that the Templars were training a large number of troops on the nearby island of Rhodes. Although currently the headquarters of the Knights Hospitallers, there is no doubt that these knights of the Order of St. John are providing support or, at the very least, turning a blind eye to Templar presence. Is this where the mercenaries we have seen lately in the capital are being prepared? Yusuf would like to find out. Therefore, we have set up a small but highly skilled raiding team to move secretly to Rhodes and assess the full extent of the Templar training program. If the rumors we have heard are true, and we have every reason to fear that they are, we shall attack forcefully but discreetly, to strike fear into their hearts. We must make them aware that we are everywhere and that we will never give up in our efforts to put an end to their operations. Finally, a curious fact I must share before sailing to Rhodes. Yusuf took me aside this morning to tell me that news had reached him lately that the Italian Mentor Ezio Auditore had left Rome a few months earlier, bound for the Holy Land. Yusuf was unaware of what brought him here, but the Assassin contacts who passed on the information seem certain that it is related to the recent upsurge in Templar violence in these lands. Following the defeat of the Borgia, a large majority of Europe's upper Templar echelons seem to have moved East; a man of Ezio's influence and reach will no doubt have noticed this, and may be on his way to offer us his expertise. Time will tell. Lacking a Mentor of our own at this time, we are ready to welcome with open arms the maestro (as I believe they call him) hailing from Italy. Perhaps he is currently on his way to Rhodes. Perhaps he knows more than we do. These are the kind of questions I'm looking forward to getting answers to.

	Every day, the same royal whims; first, our Sultan is hungry, soon our sultan has eaten too much; he demands that his books on mysticism must be brought to him in haste, then orders them removed with pious humiliation; suddenly, he fancies moving the capital of his empire to ~~Adrianopole~~, where he is currently staying for fear of another tremor, and the next moment he is lamenting over his glorious Konstantiniyye and his desire to return as soon as it is safe. The whims of our old leader are exasperating; they mitigate the will and loyalty of his Janissaries and viziers, who once hung on his every last word or gesture like a fly on a piece of ripe fruit. Traces of the old wolf can still be seen in him from time to time, but his strength is fading and he will soon have to choose a successor. As custom dictates, it should be his firstborn son, Ahmed, but my senses revolt at the prospect of having to obey such a man; someone whose preference for intellectual chatter has eradicated any hope that he might ever become a great warrior, like his younger brother, Selim. As for Korkut, the idea that this dissatisfied fool could ever occupy the throne is ludicrous. No, it has to be Selim. For the honor and dignity of the empire to survive this century intact, it has to be Selim. But, for now, we must work hard to prepare for Bayezid's move to his new palace in ~~Adrianopole~~. The Assassins, with whom we currently have a precarious alliance, have warned us of Templar activity in the area and will be sending a few men as an additional security measure. Given the recent Borgia uprising in the Vatican, it's in our best interest to listen to what the Assassins have to say about their rivals. A Templar attempt on Bayezid's life would be an attack on the entire empire. We cannot allow this to happen.

	Selim had one of his typical mood swings last night, bursting with passion and almost maniacal cheerfulness. He spoke of the recent earthquake and its curiously political aftermaths: "So my father, Bayezid, has left the city that God entrusted him to rule, fearful of a few shakes and tremors… or perhaps afraid that some rubble would fall on him from the walls of Hagia Sophia during prayer. A sign of divine discontent! He would burst into tears. Ah, stupid old fool. He's no longer fit to rule, but he's holding on to see if God ~~Will~~ renew his strength. What nonsense."

	I then asked my Prince what he thought about the Sultan's line of successors, seeking not to say outright that it would most likely be his brother Ahmed who would receive such an honor. Selim laughed heartily: "It's true that the firstborn son of any Sultan is the one who usually receives his father's blessing, simply because he has been in this world so long without acquiring any renown. But there is another custom that is equally valid: upon the death of the father, the son who arrives first at the capital armed and passionate, and with the intention of ruling, will be considered more worthy of the throne. This is how I will become sultan..."

	Having made his intentions clear, I asked about Sultan Bayezid's health, aware that he had been troubling him lately. Selim said he was sure his father would not last more than a few years at most. I then asked him if we would raise an army to march from ~~Trebizond~~ with the intention of occupying as soon as possible. Selim answered affirmatively, and added:		Having made his intentions clear, I asked about Sultan Bayezid's health, aware that he had been troubling him lately.

	"But we must be decisive," he warned, "for we are surrounded by enemies; on the one hand, the Assassins, and on the other, my brother Ahmed. Ahmed is a cunning fellow, no doubt. He is not a good soldier, but he will dispatch his mercenaries to ambush us in case we try to leave the city. Locate and kill those soldiers, then prepare to leave."

	Yusuf's private audience with Prince Korkut went as well as one could expect. That is, after finishing off the Templars who were pursuing him, Yusuf demanded compensation for the loss of time, resources and men caused by Korkut's ineptitude. And, given Yusuf's charm and Korkut's reliable corruptibility, the Prince agreed without complaint. "The Prince has agreed to open his coffers to us," Yusuf told me, "provided we are willing to escort part of his advisors on his long journey to ~~Adalia~~, where his father, Bayezid, has appointed him governor." I remarked how strange it was to me that a guy like Korkut should have administrative power over a city of such strategic importance as ~~Adalia~~, located on the southern coast of Anatolia, on the edge of the empire. Yusuf said no more than the following in reply, "Never underestimate the ability of a father to overestimate the ability of his own son." After discussing the wisdom and feasibility of such a journey, and then outlining a plan of action, we informed Korkut that we would be willing to send a small but perfectly instructed group of men south with his caravan. Korkut was delighted, until we told him that we would not allow him or any of his councilors to review the route we intended to follow. Secrecy was of vital importance. So, we set out on our long journey south, for which we estimated will last four weeks minumum. A prudent pace, certainly, but one that would at least guarantee secrecy and security. Still, Yusuf warns us to be on our guard. The Templars have lately exhibited an incredible gift for treachery. We could come under attack at any giving moment.

	As Yusuf suspected, we encountered several Templar agents on the long road to ~~Adalia~~, and battles had to be fought; all most discouraging. But we managed to prevail and lead Korkut and his men to the Prince's lodgings. In return for our protection, Korkut has provided us with sufficient arms and powder as if to supply the Sultan's army. We are now well equipped to deal with the rising Templar tide. I had hoped to return north, to Istanbul, in a matter of a couple of days, but news received from outside sources demands our attention. Today, while preparing for our trip, Yusuf received a message from one of our contacts in Rhodes, informing us that the Templars were training a large number of troops on the nearby island of Rhodes. Although currently the headquarters of the Knights Hospitallers, there is no doubt that these knights of the Order of St. John are providing support or, at the very least, turning a blind eye to Templar presence. Is this where the mercenaries we have seen lately in the capital are being prepared? Yusuf would like to find out. Therefore, we have set up a small but highly skilled raiding team to move secretly to Rhodes and assess the full extent of the Templar training program. If the rumors we have heard are true, and we have every reason to fear that they are, we shall attack forcefully but discreetly, to strike fear into their hearts. We must make them aware that we are everywhere and that we will never give up in our efforts to put an end to their operations. Finally, a curious fact I must share before sailing to Rhodes. Yusuf took me aside this morning to tell me that news had reached him lately that the Italian Mentor Ezio Auditore had left Rome a few months earlier, bound for the Holy Land. Yusuf was unaware of what brought him here, but the Assassin contacts who passed on the information seem certain that it is related to the recent upsurge in Templar violence in these lands. Following the defeat of the Borgia, a large majority of Europe's upper Templar echelons seem to have moved East; a man of Ezio's influence and reach will no doubt have noticed this, and may be on his way to offer us his expertise. Time will tell. Lacking a Mentor of our own at this time, we are ready to welcome with open arms the maestro (as I believe they call him) hailing from Italy. Perhaps he is currently on his way to Rhodes. Perhaps he knows more than we do. These are the kind of questions I'm looking forward to getting answers to.

	Every day, the same royal whims; first, our Sultan is hungry, soon our sultan has eaten too much; he demands that his books on mysticism must be brought to him in haste, then orders them removed with pious humiliation; suddenly, he fancies moving the capital of his empire to ~~Adrianople~~, where he is currently staying for fear of another tremor, and the next moment he is lamenting over his glorious Konstantiniyye and his desire to return as soon as it is safe. The whims of our old leader are exasperating; they mitigate the will and loyalty of his Janissaries and viziers, who once hung on his every last word or gesture like a fly on a piece of ripe fruit. Traces of the old wolf can still be seen in him from time to time, but his strength is fading and he will soon have to choose a successor. As custom dictates, it should be his firstborn son, Ahmed, but my senses revolt at the prospect of having to obey such a man; someone whose preference for intellectual chatter has eradicated any hope that he might ever become a great warrior, like his younger brother, Selim. As for Korkut, the idea that this dissatisfied fool could ever occupy the throne is ludicrous. No, it has to be Selim. For the honor and dignity of the empire to survive this century intact, it has to be Selim. But, for now, we must work hard to prepare for Bayezid's move to his new palace in ~~Adrianople~~. The Assassins, with whom we currently have a precarious alliance, have warned us of Templar activity in the area and will be sending a few men as an additional security measure. Given the recent Borgia uprising in the Vatican, it's in our best interest to listen to what the Assassins have to say about their rivals. A Templar attempt on Bayezid's life would be an attack on the entire empire. We cannot allow this to happen.
