	They worked all across the globe and their results were sent to the [[Grand Temple]] so the [[Father of Understanding]], the [[Mother of Wisdom]], and the [[Sacred Voice]]—[[Jupiter]], [[Juno]], and [[Minerva]], respectively—could sort and sample all that was collected. They were tasked to select those solutions that showed most potential and to put them to the test so their effectiveness could be evaluated. Although each method seemed more promising than the last, none of them succeeded, and the Isu civilization met its tragic fate, leaving behind their [[Piece of Eden\|artifacts]] and knowledge for [[Assassin-Templar War\|future generations to discover]].

	==The ~~First Method: Absorption~~==		==The experiments==
			===Energy absorption===
	{{Quote\|In the beginning, when we thought we could be saved, we sought to face the sun's wrath and contain it. Four towers would be built—to pull her fury into this place and dispel it. But even with all we knew... with all we had... It would take too long.\|Juno, 2012.\|Assassin's Creed III\|21st century conversations}}		{{Quote\|In the beginning, when we thought we could be saved, we sought to face the sun's wrath and contain it.

	==~~The Second Method: Shielding~~==		===Planetary shielding===
	{{Quote\|If we could not meet the sun's cruel embrace... Perhaps we might rebuke it. Already we could generate the fields—to protect us in times of strife... But these were small and simple things. To replicate them on a scale the size of a world... We lacked the energy to make it so.\|Juno, 2012.\|Assassin's Creed III\|21st century conversations}}		{{Quote\|If we could not meet the sun's cruel embrace... Perhaps we might rebuke it.

	The second solution was to use the [[Rings of Eden]] on a much larger scale than ever before. The magnetic field emitted by the Rings could protect the planet against the solar flare, but it was too large to build and was considered impossible. The Isu hoped to save ever-decreasing fractions of the planet's landmass, ultimately ending their attempts at one-tenth the size, but the lack of time and resources proved too great. It was theorized that—at best—a city might have been spared, given more time, but the Isu did not have this luxury and so this plan was also abandoned.<ref name="AC3"/>		The second solution was to use the [[Rings of Eden]] on a much larger scale than ever before.

	==~~The Third Method: Manipulation~~==		===Mass enthrallment===
	{{Quote\|When enough sat in thrall and were told to believe, their thoughts took on form. What was imagined became real. If a hundred minds could wish away a wall or create a tree, what might a thousand do?\|Juno, 2012.\|Assassin's Creed III\|21st century conversations}}		{{Quote\|When enough sat in thrall and were told to believe, their thoughts took on form.

	The third solution was to use the [[Apples of Eden]] to control humanity into willing the threat away. If enough humans were compelled to believe in one singular idea, their thoughts took on form and became reality. The consequent solution involved launching an Apple of Eden into orbit, aiming it towards the planet, and commanding the entire human race to think one thought, "make us safe." However, even with a dozen of Apples sent into orbit, the Isu lacked the means to direct and maintain the control beam, and simultaneously influence the humans on a global scale. The project was eventually abandoned.<ref name="AC3"/>		The third solution was to use the [[Apples of Eden]] to control humanity into willing the threat away.

	==~~The Fourth Method: Divination~~==		===Temporal divination===

	==~~The Fifth Method:~~ Bio-engineering==		===Bio-engineering===
	{{Quote\|A new world approached. One that was dark and cold. It would consume us. For we were flesh and flesh is frail.

	The fifth solution was to augment Isu bodies to adapt to the hostile new climate which appeared on Earth following the catastrophe. Juno's husband [[Aita]] volunteered himself to test the method, but his mind degenerated and he became increasingly catatonic. With enough will, he wished for Juno to euthanize him, and she fulfilled it. The solution was subsequently abandoned.<ref name="AC3"/>		The fifth solution was to augment Isu bodies to adapt to the hostile new climate which appeared on Earth following the catastrophe.

	==~~The Sixth Method:~~ Transcendence==		===Transcendence===
	{{Quote\|What is consciousness but a series of electrical impulses... And the body a vessel to hold these sparks. But it is weak. In time, it decays and crumbles into dust...

	The sixth and final solution was to transfer one's consciousness to new, stronger, and better vessels that the former solution had failed to create. These vessels would be able to withstand the new environment and could house the transferred consciousness within. While transferring one's consciousness into the new vessel was relatively simple, subsequent releasing of oneself from the vessel was nearly impossible. They even considered transferring the mind into another Isu being, as if it were a sacrifice, but this proved futile and morally wrong. As a result, this solution was abandoned.<ref name="AC3"/>		The sixth and final solution was to transfer one's consciousness to new, stronger, and better vessels that the former solution had failed to create.

	==~~The Hidden Seventh Method: Rebirth~~==		===Incarnation===

	The seventh method was a closely guarded secret, known only to a select few among the Isu. It involved a last-resort contingency plan that combined elements of the previous sixth method.

	The method was initially conceived by Juno, but the technology required for it was seized and locked away by Jupiter and Minerva, who deemed it too unethical, as it would pollute the human genome. The solution was thus abandoned, though rumors of its existence spread among the Isu, including the Æsir.<ref name="Animus Anomalies" />		The method was initially conceived by Juno, but the technology required for it was seized and locked away by Jupiter and Minerva, who deemed it too unethical, as it would pollute the human genome.

	On the day of the Great Catastrophe, Odin and seven other Æsir Isu—[[Freyja]], [[Týr]], [[Thor]], [[Sif]], [[Heimdall]], [[Idun\|Iðunn]], and [[Freyr]]—uploaded their essences into the [[Yggdrasil]] supercomputer, which through use of the serum, inserted the essence into a human bloodline, ensuring their "rebirth" as humans millennia in the future. However, as Odin and his compatriots left the Yggdrasil chamber to meet their fate, [[Loki]] secretly snuck in and also uploaded his essence, wishing to circumvent the Great Catastrophe and be reunited with his lover [[Aletheia]], whose consciousness was preserved in the [[Staff of Hermes Trismegistus]].<ref name="Animus Anomalies" />		On the day of the Great Catastrophe, Odin and seven other Æsir Isu—[[Freyja]], [[Týr]], [[Thor]], [[Sif]], [[Heimdall]], [[Idun\|Iðunn]], and [[Freyr]]—uploaded their essences into the [[Yggdrasil]] supercomputer, which through use of the serum, inserted the essence into a human bloodline, ensuring their "rebirth" as humans millennia in the future.

	During [[Desmond Miles]]' visit to the Grand Temple, Juno ~~mentions~~ that the first Tower was never completed prior to the Great Catastrophe. ~~Nevertheless~~, [[Eivor Varinsdottir]]'s dreams of Havi's journey to Svartalheim suggest that the Tower was completed but inactive.

During Desmond Miles' visit to the Grand Temple, Juno mentioned that the first Tower was never completed prior to the Great Catastrophe. Despite this, [[Eivor Varinsdottir]]'s dreams of Havi's journey to Svartalheim suggest that the Tower was completed but inactive. This contradiction has not yet been clarified.

	In Eivor's dreams of Havi's journey to [[Jötunheimr]], the [[Jotnar]] leaders refer to the Apples of Eden used in method #3 as "Idunn's Apples."<ref name="A Feast to Remember/> This could be attributing her the creation of these Pieces of Eden. However, [[Aletheia's simulations]] of [[Atlantis]] featured several documents for Kassandra to read. One of these documents mentions a project, developed alongside [[Project Anthropos]] in [[Eden]], that aimed to use [[Adamant]], beneficiating on its meta-physical properties, to create specific objects that could make humans submit by interacting with an implanted [[neurotransmitter]].<ref>''[[Isu codex]]'' - Encrypted Messages from Phanes #3</ref> This explanation provides insight into the origin of the artifacts' namesake. Whether the Apples are Idunn's creations or if the Adamant project was merely a theoretical venture that eventually led to their creation remains unknown.
