===[[Iga]]===
<tabber>
Iga is a small province surrounded by mountains in central Japan. It's just a little bit to the southeast of the capital of Kyoto. It's surrounded by the lands of Nobunaga and those loyal to him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>

And what are the main factors that lead up to kind of open war with Iga? Like I said, there's that independence that isn't particularly endearing to Nobunaga. He wants everything under his control, but they're not really necessarily a threat militarily, per se, to him. So for most of the time that he's establishing his hegemony, he is concentrated elsewhere. Iga at this time is ruled by an independent league or ikki that did not recognize any daimyo's hegemony and even gone so far as to expel the military governor of the province that had been appointed by the Ashkaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

Selon une ancienne légende, un puissant objet serait caché dans le département de la Vienne. Cet objet est une Pomme d'Eden, d'une valeur inestimable et dotée de pouvoirs extraordinaires.


it's ringed by mountains. It's very mountainous internally as well, but there's a ring of mountains around it that prevents easy access to it. It's very easily defensible. And there's six main passes, several on the eastern side, a couple into the north and then a couple on the western side through which if you're going to bring an army, you have to go through one of those passes in order to get there.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

La Pomme d'Eden aurait appartenu à la reine Aliénor d'Aquitaine, souveraine de France et d'Angleterre pendant le XIIᵉ siècle.


One of the things that the Iga warriors did was often hire themselves out as contractors to other entities would be they temples or be they other daimyo factions and whatever. So in the 1540s, we have reports of Igamono or men of Iga being hired to do things like espionage or sabotage of the enemy castles. [...] And they are capable militarily. Many of them are experienced hunters and trackers through the mountains. They have the kind of outdoor living skills we might attribute to military specialties of today like commandos or something like that. So while they weren't necessarily trying to take over control, they did also have a military presence outside of their province because they could be hired or requested to assist with campaigns elsewhere.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

Nobunaga invades. He outnumbers the Iga defenders about four or five to one. And the Iga defenders are spread across the province. They can't concentrate in one location. They end up being concentrated in two castles, one in the north Hijiyama Castle, and one in the south Kashiwara Castle. But it all ends with the surrender of Kashiwara Castle on October 8th. At that point, there's no more organized resistance to Nobunaga. Nobunaga himself visits Iga in early November to take a tour of his new province, and then withdraws it and gives it to his son Nobukatsu as part of his domain to administer.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

===[[Kyoto]]===
</tabber>
So Kyoto is the absolute heart of Japan, it's exactly in the middle. And geomantically, let's go to geomantics, it's a perfectly placed to be the capital city, which is what it was for a thousand years. It's got mountains behind it on three sides, it's got the sea in front, it's got two rivers running through, it fulfils all the necessary requirements of Feng Shui to be the perfect place for capital<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>


it was created as capital city. Emperor Kamu, who was the greatest emperor in Japanese history, he was the Charlemagne of Japan. And before his time, the capital had been in Nara, but it was kind of taken over by the Buddhist priests. [...] There were all sorts of scandals to do with these Buddhist clergy. And then he, Emperor Kamu, founded a capital in Nagoka, which is near Nara. And that one, there was an uprising, people got killed, there were ghosts, obviously not going to be any good as the capital. So he then set out on a supposed hunting trip with his geomancers to find the perfect place. People were not particularly concerned with practical considerations, they were concerned with where it would be auspicious. And so he settled on Kyoto as the place to be his capital. And he then had it built, and that was an enormous job to build it. And it was in 794 that he was an enormous entourage of his attendants and his army and everybody else arrived by Palanquin in Kyoto, in the Imperial Palace there.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

And there were many great Zen prelates who set themselves up in Kyoto. So if you go to Kyoto, it's absolutely full of Zen temples and other temples too, but I would say primarily Zen temples. The Zen priests had it linked with China and they were able to facilitate trade with China, to bring back ideas, bring back goods. So the Zen church became very wealthy as well as being very influential.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

These two lords, I think it was the Hashimoto's and the Yamunas, have been itching to fight for a long time, and they fought for 10 years. It's said that they destroyed the whole of Kyoto. That's not quite true. They destroyed the upper class part of Kyoto. So 10 years of fighting included looting, arson, and all these other things. But this mainly happened. This was the temples. This was the palaces. That lot got destroyed. Meanwhile, the shogun who lived at that point was a guy called Yoshimasa, who was living during the end of the 15th century. And he retired. He was very interested in the arts, and he was not remotely interested in fighting. And he kept well out of this fighting. And he went off to the east of the city, and there he built a fabulous pavilion, the silver pavilion. And there he carried on having a life of leisure and art with his friends. While all this was going on in Kyoto, his pavilion was facing away from the city, so it didn't have to see it was burning. And it was facing towards the lovely mountains on the east. And he was, again, an amazing patron of the arts. And under him, ink painting flourished, pottery flourished, every possible art form. Oh, linked verse became very important. So the war came to an end.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

The part of the city that had not burnt down was the part where the merchants and the artisans were, because they were poor chaps. And so nobody bothered with looting them, but they weren't that poor. So they were actually supplying and selling stuff to both sides in this war and getting richer. And the end of the Onin war, this is the Onin war, everything had sort of fallen apart, because Kyoto was in such a state of devastation.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
==Poitiers==
Avec sa cathédrale impressionnante, Poitiers offre un patrimoine historique exceptionnel entre édifices romans, places animées et ruelles anciennes. Ses nombreux monuments emblématiques, comme l'église Notre-Dame-la-Grande et le Palais, racontent l'histoire riche et variée de la ville. Aliénor d'Aquitaine, héritière du duché d'Aquitaine est la figure emblématique de Poitiers.


So it didn't take as long as it would have taken to rebuild London, to rebuild Kyoto. It didn't take that long. So it could be rebuilt pretty quickly. And it happened again and again in the history of Kyoto, and also in the history of Edo, which was the city that later became Tokyo. Time and time again they were burnt down. So Kyoto was back on its feet quite quickly, but it was just known to be the capital. The name Kyoto means capital city.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

So in the Heian period, it was laid out on a grid. Like a chessboard with equal sized square areas. And then it had long boulevards going down the middle. It had small lanes going off to the sides. It had the Emperor's Palace up at the top with beautiful green roofs, red columns. Very spectacular. You could see the Emperor's Palace wherever you were.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
;Une croix
Cette croix, collectée dans le Baptistère Saint-Jean, rappelle qu'au Vème siècle la Gaule est majoritairement chrétienne.


Hideyoshi sort of basically laid out Kyoto as it is now. He cut those squares in half. So you have rectangular blocks rather than square blocks. He also built a wall around the outside of the city, which isn't there anymore, but he had that built. He also built these glorious palaces. So you would have very glorious palaces on the main boulevards, which again are still always in like a chess board laid out like a grid. And you'd also have glorious temples, probably not radically different in appearance from glorious palaces. And then you'd have the whole merchant's area, which would be tiny little lanes of small dark houses with bamboo blinds outside, very nice houses, which still exist. If you go to Kyoto, you can go down these little lanes. They're so thin that you have to walk down or you just go down on a bicycle or something. They're sort of dark wood houses, steep, steep stairs, several floors. I think they're called eel lanes because they're like eels. They're kind of long and thin like eels. And then you could see from the streets of Kyoto, you could see the mountains to the east, which is where Yoshimasa was looking when Kyoto was burning down behind him. You could see the mountains to the north. You could see the mountain to the northwest, which is always the unlucky direction, where there was a huge complex of temples on the top and still is. And you could also see Arashiyama to the west, which is where the Flying Dragon Temple was and lots of other beautiful temples and bamboo crows. So you always could see those all around.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

;L'église Sainte-Radegonde - 1012
L'église Sainte-Radegonde s'articule autour d'un clocher-porche du XIème siècle, d'un chevet à déambulatoire du XIIème siècle et d'une nef du XIIIème siècle. L'église est placée sous la protection de Radegonde, épouse du roi Franc Clotaire II. À la mort de Radegonde, son tombeau est placé dans l'église. Radegonde est la sainte patronne de la ville de Poitiers.<br><br>Scannez l'affiche avec votre Animus Portable pour découvrir l'indice caché dans ce monument !


Then you have down one side of the city is the River Kamo. And you've got the River Kamo dividing the city from the eastern mountains. And at the foot of the eastern mountain is an area of flat land, which became a big area of carnival. So if you wanted to have fun, you go there. So when you're having a respectable life and your wife and your family and everything else are there, you stay away from the mountains. But you could also cross the bridge to this area of carnival where there would be some more wrestling. There'd be jugglers, there'd be theater, and there would be ladies of pleasure, lots of ladies of pleasure.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
;Une fiole d'eau bénite
Cette fiole contient de l'eau bénite qui rappelle la légende de la ''"Grand'Goule''". Selon la légende, cette bête terrifiante habitait les profondeurs du Clain, la rivière qui entoure Poitiers. À chaque montée des eaux, elle surgissait pour dévorer les moniales de l'Abbaye Sainte-Croix. Radegonde, armée d'une croix et d'eau bénite affronta et vainquit la bête.


And at various times, as you're within Hideyoshi's reign, a particular man whose name was Saburoemon Hara, he said to Hideyoshi, why don't I gather together these ladies of pleasure? Who are a little bit chaotic because it's good to have a bit of order. There's no issue with morality about this, it's to do with orderliness. So he gathered them into particular places which became pleasure quarters, which of course were number one, there was a wall around them, so you could keep an eye on what went on because there were bad guys that went there as well as good guys. Number two, you could tax them. And so these became very famous pleasure quarters. There's one in Kyoto [Shimabara, Kyoto], there's very famous one in Edo, which is now Tokyo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

;Le Palais - 1203
Le palais des Ducs d'Aquitaine est intimement lié à Aliénor d'Aquitaine, duchesse d'Aquitaine, reine de France et d'Angleterre. Entre 1199 et 1204, Aliénor d'Aquitaine fait rebâtir et agrandir l'ancienne grande salle du palais des Ducs d'Aquitaine, probablement la plus grande d'Europe à cette époque.<br><br>Ce monument cache un indice portant la Marque d'Eden, trouvez-le en scannant l'affiche avec votre Animus Portable !


So Kyoto somehow had a resurgence. It was also the center of the geisha, which is quite important, actually. It re-created itself as a center of traditional culture. So Tokyo is a big modern city. And as you know, Kyoto did not get bombed in World War II because it's such a center of traditional culture. It's got so much. And also it's not entirely, but it's largely a wooden city. And there was also a law was passed, which again, I think has been broken. But there are laws about the height of buildings you can build in Kyoto. You're not supposed to build very tall buildings. So it's mainly a low rise city.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
;Un plan
Ce plan de construction révèle que le Palais avait une taille imposante. Il a traversé les siècles en étant le témoin des grands événements de l'Histoire de France. Des personnages illustres comme Guillaume le Grand ou le roi Philippe le Bel y ont séjourné ; Jeanne d'Arc y a été interrogée en 1429. Il est aujourd'hui un lieu de vie que l'on peut visiter.


And then in Kyoto, there is an Emperor and has been residing all the time. So the Kyoto people like residents will be more aware of what's happening around the courtiers and so on. [...] And then medieval Japan as well, this Kamakura headquarters of the samurai has been moved and taken by a different family. And the samurai headquarters became the Kyoto as well. So in Kyoto, the dual structure of this courtiers and Emperor's house and the Shogunate. So the Kyoto people will be really subject to what political moves are. But other people like say around outside of Kyoto, they will be happily living in their regions and then they will have those like farming going on and they will have rather stable time so they could enjoy.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 08">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 8: How To Fit In: Feudal Japan</ref>

===[[Nara]]===
;Un tableau
And before his time, the capital had been in Nara, but it was kind of taken over by the Buddhist priests. [...] There were all sorts of scandals to do with these Buddhist clergy. And then he, Emperor Kanmu, founded a capital in Nagoka, which is near Nara.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
Ce tableau est un portrait de l'Impératrice Eugénie, réalisé par Louis-Adélaïde Desnos. Il a été réalisé en 1861 et offert par l'Empereur Napoléon III à la préfecture de Poitiers.


There were the different sects of Buddhism arrived in Japan at different times. And the first sect grew up in Nara, as I said, and caused trouble. And that stayed in Nara. The whole point was to leave those priests behind in Nara and move to Kyoto.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

===[[Tokyo]]===
;Un calice
So it didn't take as long as it would have taken to rebuild London, to rebuild Kyoto. It didn't take that long. So it could be rebuilt pretty quickly. And it happened again and again in the history of Kyoto, and also in the history of Edo, which was the city that later became Tokyo. Time and time again they were burnt down. So Kyoto was back on its feet quite quickly, but it was just known to be the capital. The name Kyoto means capital city.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
Ce calice représente le pillage que l'église a subi pendant les Guerres de Religions. L'église Notre-Dame est un témoignage majeur de l'art roman. On lui attribue le Miracle des Clés, légende locale invraisemblable, qui prétend que la ville fut sauvée du siège des Anglais grâce à un miracle. Cette légende est évoquée sur un vitrail de l'église.


And so they [Imperial side of Boshin War] marched up, they took Edo castle. And in 1868, the then emperor [Mutsuhito, Emperor Meiji] who was 14, I think, or 16, he was a teenager, marched or didn't march. He was carried by Palanquin, top with a Phoenix, up to Edo and into Edo castle, which became the imperial palace and Edo became Tokyo, which is the eastern capital. So therefore, Kyoto was no longer the capital at all. It was no longer the official capital.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>

La Cathédrale Saint-Pierre est de loin l'édifice le plus imposant de Poitiers. La construction de ce bâtiment en style gothique angevin, à l'exception de la façade, commence vers la fin du XIIème siècle sous l'impulsion d'Aliénor d'Aquitaine. En pleine guerres de religions, les armées de Coligny assiègent les différentes places-fortes catholiques et Poitiers est l'une de ces cibles. L'armée de Coligny ouvre le feu sur la cité.

;Un canon
===[[Tenshō Iga War]] [1579-1581]===
Ce canon symbolise le siège de Poitiers en 1569 par les troupes protestantes de Coligny. Il fait ouvrir le feu sur la ville avec ses canons. Aujourd'hui, des traces de boulets sont encore visibles sur la façade arrière de la cathédrale.<br><br>Autre moment clé de l'histoire de la Cathédrale: en 1152 fût célébrée l'union d'Aliénor d'Aquitaine et Henri II, roi d'Angleterre, faisant d'Aliénor reine d'Angleterre après avoir été reine de France.
We're at the end of the Sengoku period where Oda Nobunaga is in charge and extending his influence across the land. Specifically the conflict takes place with one invasion in 1579 and then another invasion in 1581.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>


And what are the main factors that lead up to kind of open war with Iga? Like I said, there's that independence that isn't particularly endearing to Nobunaga. He wants everything under his control, but they're not really necessarily a threat militarily, per se, to him. So for most of the time that he's establishing his hegemony, he is concentrated elsewhere. Iga at this time is ruled by an independent league or ikki that did not recognize any daimyo's hegemony and even gone so far as to expel the military governor of the province that had been appointed by the Ashkaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

;L'Hôtel de Ville - 1875
En 1875, l'Hôtel de Ville de Poitiers est inauguré. Véritable point final au plan d'urbanisation moderne du centre-ville, le bâtiment trône fièrement face à la préfecture. D'inspiration Renaissance, l'Hôtel se distingue par son plan en U et sa façade rythmée, ornée de pavillons latéraux. Grand témoignage de l'architecture en vogue à l'époque, la façade de l'Hôtel de Ville s'inspire de l'opéra Garnier de Paris.<br><br>Ce monument cache un indice portant la Marque d'Eden.

Oda Nobukatsu, was in charge of the province next to it and was looking to kind of establish his own reputation, spread his wings a little bit. And so here we have Iga province next to him, a place where he can launch an invasion, take it over. It's small. How hard could it be, right? Be an easy victory. And it turns out not to be.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
;Un vitrail
Ce vitrail, aujourd'hui visible dans le Salon d'Honneur de l'Hôtel de Ville, représente Aliénor d'Aquitaine en train de donner le statut de commune à Poitiers, autorisant ainsi les habitants à administrer eux-mêmes leur ville. Aliénor a alors 77 ans.


Nobukatsu, Nobunaga's second son, takes that [Iga's expulsion of their military governor] as an excuse of, oh, see, they're not observing the proper order of things. They're not part of the structure. So he decides of his own accord that he's going to expand his domain into Iga without permission from his father. Part of this is ego driven. He wants to prove to his father that he can operate on his own and so forth. So in 1578, he dispatches one of his generals, man by the name of Takigawa Kazumasu, to build a castle just across the Iga border that they're going to use as a staging point for a future invasion. Well, the warriors of Iga are alerted to this and realize what this means. So they decide to attack and destroy it, which they do in November of 1578. Takigawa is taken completely by surprise. The castle is burned. Takigawa and his small force is forced to retreat. Obviously, they cease work on the castle and retreat back to Issei after losing a second battle where they tried to retake the ground.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
</tabber>


So the following year in October, he decides he's going to launch a much larger invasion. So he gathers around a little over 10,000 men and invades Iga Province through three of those passes that I mentioned. In his main body, he has 8,000 men going through the northernmost pass at Nagano. And then he has a group of 1,500 men through one pass and 1,300 through another pass, these two passes to the south. But again, the Iga forces, speaking to their ability to collect intelligence and know what the enemy is doing, are ready and waiting at these narrow sites to ambush Nobukatsu's forces, which they do. They use their skill in guerrilla tactics and their local knowledge of the terrain. They inflict heavy losses against Nobukatsu's forces, again forcing him to retreat in a humiliating defeat.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
==Loudun==
Perchée sur un promontoire, Loudun conserve les traces d'un passé prestigieux au coeur de ses remparts et de ses ruelles anciennes. La tour carrée du château médiéval domine la ville, tandis que son riche patrimoine littéraire s'explore à travers ses musées et lieux culturels.


But in 1581, he comes back and we have the main invasion of the Tenshō Iga War. [...] The key moment of failure is when Nobunaga decides to get serious and invade Iga with more of a plan than his son had.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

;La tour carrée - 1185
En 1185, le Poitou appartient à la couronne d'Angleterre, sous le règne de Henri II. Ce dernier, en conflit avec le roi de France, fortifie ses positions frontalières, et fait dresser une tour carrée dans l'enceinte du château de Loudun. Cette tour, d'une trentaine de mètres de hauteur, jouait un rôle de poste d'observation. La Tour Carrée est aujourd'hui le seul élément qui reste de la forteresse démantelée sous Louis XIII.<br><br>Découvrez l'indice caché dans ce monument en scannant l'affiche avec votre Animus Portable !


It was not a protracted war once Nobunaga decided to invade. Even Nobukatsu's invasion only lasted a day before he was turned back. The second larger invasion of 1581 lasts nine days. So unlike this, you know, protracted guerrilla war that we might have in our minds, it was really a quick invasion by Nobunaga quickly taking a couple of castles, receiving their submission and then everybody moves on with their lives.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

To go into like the details, Nobunaga invades September 30th and it's a much larger scale different reports of the war, say he had somewhere between 40,000 or 60,000 troops. And the key that he really does is not only numbers, but it's the fact that he owns all the territory surrounding Iga. So he's able to send army forces that are equivalent largely to the size of the force that his son had, right, in 1579. But he can send that from six different sides. And this means that the Iga ikki cannot concentrate their forces to prevent any of these invasions coming in from any one pass. Whereas, you know, in 1579, they only defend three passes from one direction. Now it's six passes coming from all directions, including their neighbors to the north in Koka.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

So had the assistance of the Koka specialists in guerrilla operations and warfare to advise and assist him. And this is probably where we get a lot of the imagery of this rivalry between Iga and Koka because Koka did assist Nobunaga in his invasion. He also allegedly had some Iga members who offered to him to help show him through the passes and give him that advantage.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

Nobunaga invades. He outnumbers the Iga defenders about four or five to one. And the Iga defenders are spread across the province. They can't concentrate in one location. They end up being concentrated in two castles, one in the north Hijiyama Castle, and one in the south Kashiwara Castle. But it all ends with the surrender of Kashiwara Castle on October 8th. At that point, there's no more organized resistance to Nobunaga. Nobunaga himself visits Iga in early November to take a tour of his new province, and then withdraws it and gives it to his son Nobukatsu as part of his domain to administer.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

so immediately he [Toyotomi Hideyoshi] rushes from where he's been fighting over to take care of the traitors and he brings the traitors head back to Kyoto to effectively lay at the feet of Oda Nobunaga's body to say here we are you know I've taken care of this for you and Hideyoshi really then becomes the inheritor I think of this project to try to unify Japan and his major next step one of the steps that Oda Nobunaga would have taken had he lived was to attack Kyushu<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>

So Yasuke was there at Nobunaga's death. He possibly was the last person to see him alive. Nobunaga was killed in a coup d'etat, essentially. He was heading to the front with this small corps of men over which Yasuke was one, around 30 people. And one of his generals, basically, we still don't know to this day why, he brought his whole army of 13,000 and attacked. They were all gunned down, essentially. Nobunaga, with Yasuke and his lover, [Mori] Ranmaru, come into the middle of the temple where their last moments are held. The temple's on fire around them. And Nobunaga really is going to know what happened in that room because there's only three people and they all died, except for Yasuke. But we only know that Yasuke survived because the Jesuits recorded as such. We don't know what he saw, unfortunately. The normal legend goes Nobunaga cut his belly, Ranmarutook his head off as his second, and then one supposes that Ranmaru then cut his belly and Yasuke took off Ranmaru's head. And the supposed last order is Yasuke save my head. Yasuke runs with the head to Nobunaga's son, who is probably about five to ten minutes walk away, very close, in a different temple. So about to be attacked. Also just putting up the defenses for a last ditch stand. Of course, that doesn't last very long. He's dead within the hour or so. And all we know from the Jesuit source, there are no more Japanese sources, all we know from the Jesuit source is that Yasuke was there at the last. He was one of the few survivors. He was taken prisoner. He surrendered his sword. And he was then escorted to the Jesuit mission, which was again only five minutes walk away. This is a very small area of Kyoto where all this happens. The Jesuits give thanks to God for his deliverance.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 4: Yasuke: The First African Samurai</ref>

There's quite a lot of emphasis on how important this is. And this could be the masterstroke that basically secures Western Honshu for Nobunaga. So he's returned to Kyoto, and Nobunaga sends his retainer Akechi Mitsuhide with Akechi's army as the initial force to go reinforce Hideyoshi out west. And for reasons that are not quite clear, but of course, lead to lots of speculation and dramatic interpretation. Akechi decides that instead of turning west to go support Hideyoshi, he's going to turn his forces east, march into Kyoto, surround the residence of Nobunaga, which is the Honnō-ji Temple in central Kyoto. It's where he normally took up residence when he was in the city, and attack his own war.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>

We don't really know why we don't really get any full explanation of Akechi's motives. There's lots of speculation that it had to do with resentment at court treatment by Nobunaga. One thing that we do know is that Akechi's mother had been killed by a rival clan where Akechi had given them his mother as a hostage, as insurance essentially against an attack. And Nobunaga superseded that and ordered the attack anyway. So they killed Akechi's mother. Other things are rumors that he was physically abusive and verbally abusive to Mitsuhide personally.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

But for whatever reason, Akechi decides that this is his moment while Nobunaga is lightly guarded. He's certainly not expecting anybody to attack him in Kyoto. They surround Nobunaga's residence, set out on fire. Nobunaga and his guards fight back, but are eventually overwhelmed. Nobunaga commits suicide. And then his heir as well, who was also in Kyoto, is attacked by Akechi's forces and dies. So in one stroke, the Akechi have eliminated, basically decapitated the Oda family and thus ended Nobunaga's career.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

He [Nobunaga] had a very dramatic and spectacular assassination by one of his own men. It's an amazing story, but that happened in Kyoto. He was in a temple where it was his land. He thought he was absolutely fine. He didn't have that many guards, and one of his own generals turned against him.

;Un document
But towards the end [of the Tokugawa Shogunate], things were probably not as great as they might have been. Added to which the Tokugawas had ancient enemies and they had defeated them in the battle of Sekigahara. And those enemies were from the southwest, from the Kyushu area. From the sort of southwestern part of Honshu. And they wanted their revenge and they rose up. And with the help of the British, and they actually toppled the last of the Tokugawa Shoguns, who abdicated. And at that point, the southwestern lords took over. So they once again didn't have legitimacy, but they once again immediately said, oh, we represent the emperor. And that gave them legitimacy. But they decided in that 250 years, the Tokugawa's capital was not Kyoto. The official capital was Kyoto, but the Tokugawa city was Edo. So the center of policy, the center of government, the center of culture, more and more gravitated towards Edo. And so these southwestern lords decided that they would make the capital, not Kyoto, but Edo. And so they marched up, they took Edo castle. And in 1868, the then emperor [Mutsuhito, Emperor Meiji] who was 14, I think, or 16, he was a teenager, marched or didn't march. He was carried by Palanquin, top with a Phoenix, up to Edo and into Edo castle, which became the imperial palace and Edo became Tokyo, which is the eastern capital. So therefore, Kyoto was no longer the capital at all. It was no longer the official capital.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>

We probably have lost England, but we have gained another island in the form of Japan.

But the night suddenly he sent a questionary to Coelho, asking him why they came to Japan, why they are making so much converts. And why are they destroying the Buddhist temples? Of course Coelho was really shocked with that. He was so well treated and suddenly everything changed overnight. So he gave his answer that, well, they came to Japan just to propagate their faith, in good faith. And that it was not them who destroyed the Buddhist temples, but the Japanese converts. So the answer of Hideyoshi was that he made a decree that the Jesuits had to leave Japan in 20 days. But he didn't enforce the order very strictly. And that was the same reason why the other warlords welcomed the Jesuits, because he didn't want disrupt the trade with the Portuguese. So he promulgated that decree.

When does that contact begin? Well, that begins in the middle of the 16th century, in 1549 to be correct. The Portuguese, they travelled to the east from the 15th century on and in 1498 I think they established a sea route to India and they went even further and in the beginning of the 16th century they already were in Malacca but then it still took some time for them to reach Japan. It was in 1542 or 43, it's still being disputed, that the first Portuguese merchants reached Japan.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>

==Three Great Unifiers==
===[[Oda Nobunaga]]===
But he's from the small province of Owari. But he's a really good example of someone who was able to use a combination of smart tactics, smart use of weaponry, judicious use of alliances to gradually expand beyond that province. So he takes another province for himself right early on. This is the middle of the 1500s. Then he makes some alliances. By 1568, after really only a few short years, and he's still relatively speaking a young man, he's able to do what most daimyo ultimately wanted to do, which is to mount a successful march on Kyoto and have the emperor under his BDI and also have the shogun under his control.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
 
One of the stories told about him when he was a young man, just after his father left, all the Buddhist priests who had been tending to his father, praying for him, looking after him before he died, legend has it anyway that Oda Nobunaga had them all locked inside a single building and then shot to death for what they did, i.e. failing to keep his father alive. He also had a reputation as a teenager for being just quite strange, swaggering around town, eating nuts, letting them fall out of his mouth. He had sort of disheveled hair. At his father's funeral he's said to have picked up a fistful of incense and just thrown it and walked out. So quite a strange character, probably an unpromising character early on, but he was given this motto of rule the realm by force and I think that carried him through. He had a strong sense that he was always going to do this, that he was always going to succeed and I think there's a combination of deep self-belief and ruthlessness and I suppose a degree of luck as well that really seems to carry him forward. By the time that he died in the 1580s as a result of treachery on the part of some of his own men, actually, he had controlled most of Japan's main island of Honshu and he was on the verge of going to its second biggest island, Kyushu, down south. He actually at that point looked unstoppable.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>
 
So in terms of Oda Nobunaga, not an especially promising background I think. If you think about the era into which he's born, there are roughly 120 of these states. Some of them at war with others, some of them in alliance etc. But his state or province or what he is just one of those and quite a small one at that. Plus I think it's 1551, his father dies when Oda Nobunaga is still quite young, still a teenager and he inherits control of this state and the people around him don't see him as an especially serious figure and especially compromising figure. You can imagine some of the senior vassals a little bit older than him thinking goodness me I don't know what's going to happen to our little province with this person in charge. He was I think just seen as being slightly mad, a bit of an idiot not really able to take life terribly seriously and yet within a few short years he proves himself to be this master strategist who becomes by the mid 1560s really the main player in Japan out of all these warlords.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>
 
What he succeeds in doing is very early on gaining control of a neighboring province and then he makes a very fortuitous alliance with the man who becomes Tokugawa Ieyasu. He doesn't yet have that name at this point in the 1550s but that's a great alliance. It allows Oda Nobunaga not to have to worry too much about the territory to one side of his own province and so he can look elsewhere for his focus but I think other things that seem to go in his favor include a real talent for strategy, choosing the right moment to attack, I think an extraordinary ruthlessness to him as well.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
So I think by the time he dies in 1582 he has control of large parts of Japan's main island the long thin island of Honshu contains places like Tokyo as it's now called Kyoto of course Osaka for centuries really the central part of that central island really across from Osaka and Kyoto up to what we now call Tokyo has been considered as it were the business end of Japan that's where a lot of the power plays go on the culture is developed the economy is at its strongest and Oda Nobunaga has control of most of that certainly between himself and his allies in any case and he's thinking about moving into two other of Japan's main islands Kyushu which is towards the southwest and also the smaller island of Shikoku so he's got lots of plans he's still a relatively young man he's in an extraordinarily powerful position and he's just setting out in early part of 1582 for the next part of that campaign staying at a temple called Honnoji in Kyoto when he's attacked actually not by his enemies but by someone who is supposed to be on his side one of the famous treacherous figures I suppose in Japanese history man by the name of Akechi Mitsuhide who persuades his men to turn their guns on Oda Nobunaga and his own men and so you have these stories of Oda Nobunaga shouting out treachery or traitors or something like that trying to fight them off himself the temple ends up in flames and Oda Nobunaga retreats further into the temple and dies by his own hand.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
So you had, for example, Oda Nobunaga, which showed great familiarity to the Christians, to for example, Fróis, who he invited in Kyoto in Gifu Castle and showed him around in the castle. So it was very positively inclined towards the Christians, but still he never adopted the Christian faith himself.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
Another one, when getting to Miyako, which is now Kyoto, a huge mob literally surrounded the mission and almost pushed the mission down, throwing stones. There were dead people in the crowd outside. And at that point, Nobunaga, who was the most powerful warlord in Japan at the time, was five minutes walk away. He heard this huge hullaballo, which he liked. He heard what was going on. And he demanded to see who was disturbing the peace, demanded that this person be brought before him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 4: Yasuke: The First African Samurai</ref>
 
So Yasuke was there at Nobunaga's death. He possibly was the last person to see him alive. Nobunaga was killed in a coup d'etat, essentially. He was heading to the front with this small corps of men over which Yasuke was one, around 30 people. And one of his generals, basically, we still don't know to this day why, he brought his whole army of 13,000 and attacked. They were all gunned down, essentially. Nobunaga, with Yasuke and his lover, [Mori] Ranmaru, come into the middle of the temple where their last moments are held. The temple's on fire around them. And Nobunaga really is going to know what happened in that room because there's only three people and they all died, except for Yasuke. But we only know that Yasuke survived because the Jesuits recorded as such. We don't know what he saw, unfortunately. The normal legend goes Nobunaga cut his belly, Ranmaru took his head off as his second, and then one supposes that Ranmaru then cut his belly and Yasuke took off Ranmaru's head.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
when Nobunaga is born in 1534, the Oda family effectively had control of Owari province at this point. Though the family itself was fractured and Nobunaga's branch was interestingly not the primary lineage.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
the Oda family, as I said, they were the deputy governors underneath the Shiba family in Owari, and he's born as the first legitimate son of a man named Oda Nobuhide, who is the defacto leader of the Oda family. Like I mentioned, his line was not the senior line, but Nobuhide was particularly capable and competent and brought his relatives under his control and for the most part dominated the governance of Owari province. But he was in constant conflict with his neighbors, particularly the powerful Imagawa Yoshimoto to his east and a daimyo named Saitō Dōsan to his north in Mino province.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So Nobunaga's youth would have been one where his family was in constant conflict, both internally and externally. He was designated Nobuhide's heir rather early on, and given the education that you would expect of an heir, he was given four of Nobuhide's high-ranking subordinates as his tutors, so to speak, kind of to raise him up and teach him the ways that he would need to rule both military and politically. But it's often said he was a bit of a wild child who preferred running around with his friends rather than studying, out hunting, and raising all kinds of ruckus. Allegedly he wore outlandish outfits like a tiger skin cloak, and generally he didn't really act the part of an up-and-coming warlord. You'll often hear that he was called the Fool of Owari.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But in 1549, he marries the daughter of Saito Dosan, who is located to Owari's north in Mino province, as part of a peace agreement between Dosan and Nobuhide.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So Nobuhide dies in 1551. And despite Nobunaga being his heir, there's some contention based on his pattern of erratic behavior. One of the famous events that is often brought up is at Nobuhide's funeral. Nobunaga shows up allegedly very unkempt, not in the proper formal funeral attire, and acts very disrespectfully, throwing incense at the altar instead of performing the proper respectful rituals.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
And based off of this, we are told that some of his father's vassals form a faction around his younger brother while other branches of the family. So this is an opportunity for them to seize control, push this loser who's not ready for the job out of the way. Other vassals defect to the Imagawa or plot with the Saito. So his position upon his father's death is actually very precarious.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But in 1553, one of his senior retainers, one of these four men who was designated as his tutors and mentors, a man by the name of Hirata Masahide, commits suicide. [...] We have Hirata committing this form of protest suicide. And it serves as a way to wake up young Nobunaga to his rather outlandish behavior and how it's being detrimental to both, you know, his own well-being and the well-being of the Oda family.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
he does begin to more seriously concentrate on consolidating his control over Owari and the Oda family.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So his first fight is to simply gain control of his own family, you know, largely inside of Owati province. There's some pressure from external enemies that Imagawa to the east. But initially from 1552 to 1554, he's contending with iterations of rebellion from his uncle, Nobutomo, who inspired to assassinate him and worked with, you know, other entities to try to make that happen. Nobunaga catches him and forgives him once. But you know, second time he continues to plot. Nobunaga captures him and has him put to death.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
In 1556, again, out of fears that Nobunaga is just not up to the task. Several of his major retainers side with his younger brother Nobuyuki, but Nobunaga, you know, warned of potential treachery at one point, feigns an illness instead of going to go meet his brother. So his brother comes to meet him. And when he does, Nobunaga has him and his entourage assassinated.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So the 1550s is really the story of Nobunaga's consolidation of his power within the Oda family, establishing himself as the leader of the family. And by default, almost the ruler of the Oda province. In 1559, his final obstacle is the castle of Iwakura and his cousin Nobuyasu, who belongs to the senior branch of the Oda line. But he manages to take Iwakura castle and eliminate Nobuyasu. And this ends the internal threats now.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
In 1560, the powerful daimyo Imagawa Yoshimoto to his east, enrolled [????] Toutomi, Suroga, and the Kawa provinces, and came from the illustrious Imagawa line, which was one of the pillars of the former Ashikaga shogunate. He decides, or it's usually assumed at least that he decides that he's going to make a run at marching on the capital of Kyoto to take charge of the central government. So he gathers together an army of 25,000 troops and begins his march east. And the first stop is, of course, his neighbor in Owari province, Nobunaga. So he has to go through Nobunaga's domain. On paper, this is going to be very easy. He's got 25,000 troops, which at the time was a very large army. And Nobunaga only has a few thousand men, maybe 2,500. So we're looking at roughly around a 10 to 1 disadvantage. But Nobunaga, despite the fact that his advisors all counsel him to withdraw into his castle at Kyosu and withstand a siege, he decides that that's a losing strategy. Because what's he going to do against an attack by an army that size? He decides that his best course of action is to try to seek an opening and attack.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But the Imagawa forces by midday had made significant progress against the Odo forces invading. So the Imagawa army was much larger. It was rather spread out and divided. The vanguard had taken several of these forts that Nobunaga had. Yoshimori himself was with only a few thousand troops. And at his command post, they took a bit of a siesta, almost, if you will, in this small narrow gorge called Dengaku Hazama. And they were celebrating some of the Imagawa troops had already broken into the celebration sake in anticipation of their great victory that they saw coming because, you know, how could you see anything else? A little bit after this, there's a rainstorm. This was in the summer. So the rainy season in Japan. This thunderstorm breaks out and it really helps Nobunaga maneuver his forces through the mountains, through these narrow passes into position to attack Imagawa Yoshimoto's headquarters camp. They broke out of the tree line to attack the camp. And at first Yoshimoto assumes that it's a drunken brawl taking place amongst his men. Too late, he realizes that it's not that he's actually under attack. And shortly after that, two of the Otis samurai relieve him up his head. In the aftermath, the Imagawa forces deprived of their commander melt away in confusion. And we have this almost legendary victory by other Nobunaga outmanned ten to one, destroying the forces of this great daimyo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So it kind of makes a name for Nobunaga. Another key thing about this battle, though, and the aftermath is that in the confusion of the Imagawa family with the loss of their head, several of their more talented and younger retainers, one of which we know today as Tokugawa Ieyasu, are able to claim independence. And Ieyasu establishes himself in his home territory of Mikawa, which is just to the east of Owari, and establishes an alliance with Nobunaga, thus providing a secure flank to Nobunaga's east, allowing Nobunaga to then look in other directions as he begins to expand.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So Nobunaga, his next target is this province to his north, Mino Province, which is much larger in size than Owari, and it's somewhat kind of the nexus of road networks in central Japan, where two of the major roads from Chiyoto into the capital in central Japan to the east runs through it. So it's a pretty strategic province to have. So he goes to war against Saitou Dousan and it takes a while, but through diplomacy and bribery of the Saitou generals, he's able to convince many of them to join his side. And by 1567, he's weakened them enough to besiege and take the main castle at Inabayama, which he then renames Gifu.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So then he works to consolidate his position by doing some preliminary campaigns into neighboring Issei province and establishing diplomatic relations. So he marries his younger sister, Oichi, to a warlord named Azai Nagamasa who rules northern Omi province. And this is significant because Omi is the province that lies between Mino and Owari, which he owns, and the capital of Kyoto. So he's in essence securing a line of, you know, advance for future endeavors.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
The previous shogun, Ashikaga Yoshitero, had been assassinated in 1565 and replaced by a puppet. So Yoshitero's younger brother, a man by the name of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, had been traveling around the provinces trying to seek a benefactor who would back his claim and help him march on the capital. So shortly after Nobunaga establishes himself in Gifu, Yoshiaki arrives on his doorstep in 1568, thus giving him a pretext to make his move on the capital.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
The fact that he can take a legitimate claimant to the Ashikaga shogunate and march on Kyoto with utter the pretext of putting him into power gives him the legitimate of his siege to do so. So November of 1568, he enters Kyoto with his army and installs Yoshiaki as the 15th Ashikaga shogun. However, here's where things start to differ from what you might have expected at the time, because rather than accept Yoshiaki's offer to be his deputy shogun, Nobunaga declines that in any other position that Yoshiaki offers.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
In 1570, Nobunaga sends an invitation, sensibly on Yoshiaki's behalf, to local warlords for a reception in Kyoto. And this is almost a way to test who was going to accept his authority and who wasn't. And the daimyo of Ichizen province, Asakura Yoshikage, refuses the summons. So Nobunaga launches a campaign to besiege the Asakura's main castle. But unfortunately for Nobunaga, the Azai, his brother-in-law's family, his brother-in-law being Azai Nagamasa, had a multi-generational alliance relationship with the Asakura. So Nagamasa feels obligated to go to the Asakura's aid, and he launches an attack on Nobunaga's army's rear, forcing Nobunaga to break off the siege and retreat while a rear guard held off the Asai and the Asakura forces. So Nobunaga feels personally betrayed by this man who was a relative by marriage. And the Asai and Asakura are one of the initial threats that he faces.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
The two sides meet in July of 1570 at the Battle of Anegawa, where Nobunaga was joined by his ally Tokugawa Ieyasu. And they fight this battle in the shallow Anagawa River, both sides plunging into the water to engage the enemy. So if you picture this dramatic battle in this shallow river, Tokugawa, on Nobunaga's right flank, managed to route the Asakura and then crash into the flank of the Asai while at the same time Nobunaga sent his reserves around the other flank. And it causes the collapse of the enemy to create victory.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But the surviving members of the Asakura and the Asai forces find refuge on Mount Hiei, which is a mountain just to the northeast of the capital. And it's the site of the Enuryakuji Temple, which is the headquarters of the Tendai Sept of Buddhism and a military power in its own right. what that matters is that, you know, this was a Buddhist temple that had essentially an army of its own. And so this prevents Nobunaga from cutting off the Asai and the Asakura forces and completely destroying them. And he has to back off,<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Another group that around this time rises up to challenge his authority and one that will probably his longest running enemy is what's known as the Ikkō-ikki or the Ikko League. This was a confederation of followers of the true Pure Land Sept of Buddhism. And its headquarters was the Ishiyama Hongan-ji, which was located in what is now present day Osaka. But it had groups of adherents called these Ikki or leagues scattered throughout the provinces of central Japan. And in 1570, Nobunaga starts a war with them because the self-defense groups, these Ikki and the Ishiyama Hongan-ji itself resisted political and military control by local warrior rule. In fact, in 1486, the Ikko Ikki of Kaga Province overthrew the local dainyo and ruled the province without any samurai rule for almost 100 years.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
For 10 years until 1580, he's in this constant on and off war with the Ishiyama Hongan-ji and their ikko followers in various locations throughout the provinces. And they're really the linchpin of the various coalitions that are opposing Nobunaga. You know, at this point, these are kind of like the main enemies that he's looking at.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But in 1571, he realizes that the only way to solve his problem of encirclement is to break kind of the circle. So he starts with Mount Hiei, the Enuryakuchi temple complex that had given refuge to his enemies. And in the fall, he brings them out and has his troops advance up deliberately. And according to eyewitness accounts from the time that are written down, his troops are killing anything that's alive, whether it be monks, laymen, women, children, reportedly even every animal that's on the mountain. And they burn almost every building of this massive temple complex.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Early assessments of their relationship by historians assume that Nobunaga's plan all along was to use him as a puppet and then throw him away and take power for himself. I agree with more recent biographers, you see it as a little bit more complicated than that. Ashikaga Yoshiaki, obviously, as the Shogun, felt that he should be in charge. So after being installed in 1568, he attempts to rule, but he quickly sees that he cannot do anything without Nobunaga's help. And by 1572, there's some real tension between the two of who's in charge. Nobunaga issued several admonishments, which have been published and are famous, going so far as to note how the people call Yoshiaki the evil Shogun, in scare quotes there, and laying out rules for the Shogun's house to follow. Of course, Yoshiaki takes offense at this and who are you to tell me the Shogun how to run things? And so, like I said, early on, historians looked at this as Nobunaga's overstipping his bow, just trying to push Yoshiaki out.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
I see a different reading of it that is more compelling to me is that, no, he really saw that this was like the structure that should be in place and was trying to guide Yoshiaki back onto an actual correct path of governance, at least as Nobunaga saw it. And his efforts to maintain relations with Yoshiaki, at least initially, were very sincere. But Yoshiaki is the one who kind of pushes the relationship to the breaking point. And the early 1570s, he's orchestrating coalitions of enemies to move against Nobunaga. In addition to the Iko Iki, he's kind of another lynchpin of the different coalitions against Nobunaga, trying to convince different daimyo to turn against Nobunaga, invade, come rescue me in Kyoto and be my savior and I'll grant you XYZ, so forth.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
This continues until 1573, when it's very obvious that Nobunaga has run out of patience. In 1573, he does march on Kyoto and expel Yoshiaki, which more or less ends the Ashikaga shogunate for good. And then Ashikaga would escape to Western Japan, where he would take up residence in the lands of one of Nobunaga's enemies, the Mori family. And from there, he would continue to write different daimyo, constantly trying to create a coalition that could overthrow Nobunaga and reinstall him in power. How effective that was? Well, we see that it didn't happen, but he certainly was doing his best the entire time to undermine Nobunaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
The Takeda family is finally destroyed in 1582. And one of the few remaining enemies in the main island of Japan that he is concerned about is this family called the Mori family. And he's had one of his generals man by the name of Hashida Hideyoshi, who we would later know as Toyotomi Hideyoshi. One of his generals is leading the campaign against them. And having just completed the campaign in the east against the Takeda, he is given notice by Hideyoshi that a siege of a castle is almost complete. But he's worried that Mori reinforcements are going to come. So please send additional reinforcements to me in order to defeat the Mori.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
There's quite a lot of emphasis on how important this is. And this could be the masterstroke that basically secures Western Honshu for Nobunaga. So he's returned to Kyoto, and Nobunaga sends his retainer Akechi Mitsuhide with Akechi's army as the initial force to go reinforce Hideyoshi out west. And for reasons that are not quite clear, but of course, lead to lots of speculation and dramatic interpretation. Akechi decides that instead of turning west to go support Hideyoshi, he's going to turn his forces east, march into Kyoto, surround the residence of Nobunaga, which is the Honnō-ji Temple in central Kyoto. It's where he normally took up residence when he was in the city, and attack his own war.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
We don't really know why we don't really get any full explanation of Akechi's motives. There's lots of speculation that it had to do with resentment at court treatment by Nobunaga. One thing that we do know is that Akechi's mother had been killed by a rival clan where Akechi had given them his mother as a hostage, as insurance essentially against an attack. And Nobunaga superseded that and ordered the attack anyway. So they killed Akechi's mother. Other things are rumors that he was physically abusive and verbally abusive to Mitsuhide personally.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But for whatever reason, Akechi decides that this is his moment while Nobunaga is lightly guarded. He's certainly not expecting anybody to attack him in Kyoto. They surround Nobunaga's residence, set out on fire. Nobunaga and his guards fight back, but are eventually overwhelmed. Nobunaga commits suicide. And then his heir as well, who was also in Kyoto, is attacked by Akechi's forces and dies. So in one stroke, the Akechi have eliminated, basically decapitated the Oda family and thus ended Nobunaga's career.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So one of the things that he institutes in large scale, though not systematic scale, is land surveys, sending out his administrators to take surveys of the arable land and their rice production yield. What this does is it establishes tax registers, it establishes known income values, and it enables Nobunaga to award rights to the land to his subordinates. And in some ways, assign them or move them based off of income levels, the pieces of land are very modular, and he can move his retainers around underneath him. Toyotomi Hideyoshi after him, who turns it into a systematic evaluation of the entire Japanese realm.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Nobunaga is furious. He couldn't believe that his son had put himself in position to be defeated and humiliated like this. So he supposedly threatens to disown Nobukatsu. He doesn't end up following through on it, but he's not pleased.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
Nobunaga invades. He outnumbers the Iga defenders about four or five to one. And the Iga defenders are spread across the province. They can't concentrate in one location. They end up being concentrated in two castles, one in the north Hijiyama Castle, and one in the south Kashiwara Castle. But it all ends with the surrender of Kashiwara Castle on October 8th. At that point, there's no more organized resistance to Nobunaga. Nobunaga himself visits Iga in early November to take a tour of his new province, and then withdraws it and gives it to his son Nobukatsu as part of his domain to administer.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
So one of their descendants, Yoshiyaki, was around and he was a pretty hopeless guy. But he was officially the Shogun. So Nobunaga's excuse for entering Kyoto was to reinstate him as Shogun. But actually, he, like a lot of these guys, is this Yoshiyaki. The Shogun was very treacherous. We wanted to get rid of Nobunaga, and he instigated a plot against him. So Nobunaga had him arrested and taken off to a castle in the middle of nowhere and left there forever. So that was the end of him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
So the Emperor [Michihito, Emperor Ōgimachi] was still rather broke. The Emperor throughout centuries was very often very poor, and very often just basically getting pocket money from whoever is in power, but still had respect and was still officially descended from the Sun Goddess, the most respected person in the entire land. So Nobunaga then gave the Emperor lots of money and furnished the Imperial Palace made it good. So he gave himself legitimacy as a ruler by helping out the Emperor.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
He [Nobunaga] had a very dramatic and spectacular assassination by one of his own men. It's an amazing story, but that happened in Kyoto. He was in a temple where it was his land. He thought he was absolutely fine. He didn't have that many guards, and one of his own generals turned against him. So he was killed there.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
===[[Toyotomi Hideyoshi]]===
so Hideyoshi Toyotomi was one of those [ashigaru] now and again he carried the sandals of Oda Nobunaga Oda Nobunaga used to refer to him affectionately as that bald rat Hideyoshi's famously sort of short on a bit of hair but nevertheless he rises through the ranks to be a senior and trusted man under Oda Nobunaga so immediately he rushes from where he's been fighting over to take care of the traitors and he brings the traitors head back to Kyoto to effectively lay at the feet of Oda Nobunaga's body to say here we are you know I've taken care of this for you and Hideyoshi really then becomes the inheritor I think of this project to try to unify Japan and his major next step one of the steps that Oda Nobunaga would have taken had he lived was to attack Kyushu<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>
 
yet for Hideyoshi Kyushu is a part of Japan that he simply must have so he sends around a quarter of a million men over to Kyushu to take it for himself which he manages to do in fairly short order in 1586 and 7<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
Hideyoshi for his part had a powerful dislike of Christians so the island of Kyushu in this period was probably the part of Japan where Christian missionaries Portuguese and Spanish mainly the Jesuits but also others as well had since the 1550s been making quite a large number of converts so some of the warlords the daimyo in Kyushu were actually Christians who had a mixture of Portuguese and Spanish and Japanese names and Hideyoshi was astounded to find when he got to Kyushu but he found some Christian missionaries offering him to kind of broker deals with warlords help him take over the island these people as far as Hideyoshi were concerned were foreigners preaching of foreign faith he discovered that Nagasaki had been raised up into this great port by the Jesuits who had effectively been given Nagasaki by a local warlord so the extraordinary influence that a foreign power preaching of foreign religion had in Kyushu I think upset Hideyoshi very much<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
Hideyoshi once he's taken Kyushu just a few years later launches invasions of Korea so he sends troops across including some of Christian warlords commanding them across to Korea wanting to use it almost as China's driveway if you think about the geography of it send these troops up through Korea take over the peninsula eventually invade and take over China and after that he also wanted to take over India as well<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
although Hideyoshi has done very well by 1590 as I say he pretty much has most parts of Japan wrapped up under his control and he's starting to think about internal administration he introduces measures for example to disarm the peasantry so if you want to end this period of all against all warfare he wants to return to a position where most people cannot bear arms and it's very clear who can and who aren't and where you sit in these various samurai hierarchies so he does all these bits of internal administration too I suppose another thing he starts to do is to launch these surveys of the land something that Oda Nobunaga had started to an extent but Hideyoshi really goes for it to get a sense of who going forward owns what in Japan what kind of tax you ought to pay so the things that you know maybe strike some fans of history as a bit dull but nevertheless a sign I think of a new order starting to entrench itself so he does all that but his Korean campaign goes badly wrong in the 1590s the Chinese finally put some men in the field and they push the Japanese troops all the way back down the Korean peninsula so it doesn't go anywhere except for poisoning relations with Korea for a very long time to come and then in 1598 Hideyoshi dies and the one thing he doesn't manage to do and I suppose fans of history from Europe and elsewhere there's similar things happen here one thing you want to do if you're a newly established ruler is make sure that the succession is in place...<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
And you had Otomo, which was a very powerful clan in the east of Kyushu. And then you had in the southwest, you had the Shimazu. And Otomo was losing against the Shimazu. So he asked Hideyoshi to intervene. And sometime before Hideyoshi marched towards Kyushu, he met with Coelho, which was then the head of the Christian mission in Japan, together with Fróis. And he treated Coelho very well, just like Oda Nobunaga had done with Fróis. So Coelho was really pleased with that. And then Hideyoshi asked him, I want to invade Korea. Then you provide two Portuguese ships to help me in this invasion. And if I conquer Korea, I will make it that there are a lot of churches being built. So Koelyo said, yes, I will do that for you. And I will make sure that we have two Portuguese ships, the Karak ships, as they were called by the English, gigantic ships. So Hideyoshi could very well use them for his invasion in Korea. And then he went a step further and he said, I will make sure that the Christian warlords in Kyushu will also support you. And I think at that moment that Hideyoshi, that there was a ring bell in his head, that the Christians, the Jesuits had too much influence in Japan.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
And when he had conquered Kyushu, he again met with Coelho on a Portuguese ship. And Coelho again said that we will support you in whatever endeavor you will take. But the night suddenly he sent a questionary to Coelho, asking him why they came to Japan, why they are making so much converts. And why are they destroying the Buddhist temples? Of course Coelho was really shocked with that. He was so well treated and suddenly everything changed overnight. So he gave his answer that, well, they came to Japan just to propagate their faith, in good faith. And that it was not them who destroyed the Buddhist temples, but the Japanese converts. So the answer of Hideyoshi was that he made a decree that the Jesuits had to leave Japan in 20 days.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
Nobunaga's main retainer, a man called Hideyoshi, was born a peasant. He actually became Nobunaga's successor after Nobunaga died. So he rose from literally the bottom almost to the top within his lifetime. He died quite early as well, maybe in his 50s. So it wasn't even a long life.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 4: Yasuke: The First African Samurai</ref>
 
The Takeda family is finally destroyed in 1582. And one of the few remaining enemies in the main island of Japan that he is concerned about is this family called the Mori family. And he's had one of his generals man by the name of Hashida Hideyoshi, who we would later know as Toyotomi Hideyoshi. One of his generals is leading the campaign against them. And having just completed the campaign in the east against the Takeda, he is given notice by Hideyoshi that a siege of a castle is almost complete. But he's worried that Mori reinforcements are going to come. So please send additional reinforcements to me in order to defeat the Mori.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
There's quite a lot of emphasis on how important this is. And this could be the masterstroke that basically secures Western Honshu for Nobunaga. So he's returned to Kyoto, and Nobunaga sends his retainer Akechi Mitsuhide with Akechi's army as the initial force to go reinforce Hideyoshi out west. And for reasons that are not quite clear, but of course, lead to lots of speculation and dramatic interpretation. Akechi decides that instead of turning west to go support Hideyoshi, he's going to turn his forces east, march into Kyoto, surround the residence of Nobunaga, which is the Honnō-ji Temple in central Kyoto. It's where he normally took up residence when he was in the city, and attack his own war.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So one of the things that he institutes in large scale, though not systematic scale, is land surveys, sending out his administrators to take surveys of the arable land and their rice production yield. What this does is it establishes tax registers, it establishes known income values, and it enables Nobunaga to award rights to the land to his subordinates. And in some ways, assign them or move them based off of income levels, the pieces of land are very modular, and he can move his retainers around underneath him. Toyotomi Hideyoshi after him, who turns it into a systematic evaluation of the entire Japanese realm.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
And his trusted lieutenant, who was a guy called Hashiba Hideyoshi, Hashiba Hideyoshi had a lot of different names. He started off the son of a farmer and he was called Hiyoshi. And he was also called Saru-san, which means Mr. Monkey, because he was an ugly bloke and looked like a monkey. He was small and ugly. He had a lot of girlfriends. He had a really devoted wife to whom he wrote wonderful letters. This is all by the by. Hideyoshi is a great guy. Hideyoshi came galloping back from the campaign he was engaged in when he heard that Nobunaga had been killed. And basically Nobunaga's method had been force and violence. Hideyoshi was the man with the golden tongue. He used persuasion. He was nice to people. And he got everybody to pledge allegiance to him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
And because Hideyoshi came from a poor family, he was a farmer's son. He had climbed his way right through the ranks, which only two people in the whole of Japanese history did. But he sort of didn't have anything to prove to anybody. He was very nice to the emperor, but he loved culture. He wanted to enjoy all those wonderful things that the upper classes had. But under him, the sort of culture he liked was chō. He liked display. He liked sort of flamboyancy. For example, there are paintings of the wonderful kimonos people wore. And there are also beautiful paintings of how Kyoto looked, with all the people on the streets, people dancing, the beautiful buildings, the temples, the palaces.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
He built a palace in the middle of called Jurakudai, in the middle of Kyoto, where Nijō Castle is. That now, for those of you who've been there, anyone who's been there, right in the center. And then he also built Momoyama Castle [aka Fushimi Castle] in the south of Kyoto. And he also, while he was at it, I'm not sure if I'm answering your question anymore, but he had an enormous tea party for the entire population of Kyoto, the entire population, including all the poor people, and got them all to come. And it occupied a whole sort of enormous shrine grounds. And I think there was something like 800 tea pavilions there. Part of tea is displaying your beautiful utensils. And he displayed his gold utensils. And he also had an entire tea hut made of gold, the golden tea hut.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
Hideyoshi sort of basically laid out Kyoto as it is now.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
Were there games in medieval Japan that we know about? Right. One thing that the samurai ruler, especially the unifier, Toyotomi Hideyoshi liked, was the noh play. So there are theatres all over Japan.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 08">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 8: How To Fit In: Feudal Japan</ref>
 
===[[Tokugawa Ieyasu]]===
What he succeeds in doing is very early on gaining control of a neighboring province and then he makes a very fortuitous alliance with the man who becomes Tokugawa Ieyasu. He doesn't yet have that name at this point in the 1550s but that's a great alliance. It allows Oda Nobunaga not to have to worry too much about the territory to one side of his own province and so he can look elsewhere for his focus [...]<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>
 
unfortunately he dies when his son Hideyori is still too young to assume power and so you have this council of elders who are controlling things until Hideyori is old enough to rule by himself but unfortunately on that council of elders is one Tokugawa Ieyasu who while you know professing a certain amount of loyalty to Hideyori is plotting and scheming instead to take it all for himself and so he becomes our third major figure.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
he stations some troops in Kyoto to keep the emperor under a watchful eye not necessarily because of what the emperor might do but what people might use the emperor for some of his western enemies you know as in in the western part of Japan might potentially take the emperor as a figurehead and launch a further action against him it's not as though after a great battle like that everyone on the losing side thinks fair enough you know you've got me I'll walk away and agree to this so he has that our establishment Kyoto his own power base is Edo this castle town that is now the great city of Tokyo so his shogunate is really run out of Edo that's where his advisors are his castle is his strong economy is and he manages to really build up Edo I think in short order the other thing he does which is really establishing this process of unification really establishing the new Japan is he does this enormous reshuffling of territory in Japan I think it's the biggest reshuffling of territory in terms of who controls what in Japan's history so lots of the people who are on the losing side at the battle of Sekigahara either lose everything or their territory is drastically cut down or they're shipped off to another part of the country entirely perhaps all these things that are designed to damage their power he also as part of that reshuffle takes over a system that Hideyoshi used to use called Sankin Kortai<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02"/>
 
Tokugawa Ieyasu, he forbade Christianity totally. And all influence of the Jesuits was razed very systematically from then on.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
So it kind of makes a name for Nobunaga. Another key thing about this battle, though, and the aftermath is that in the confusion of the Imagawa family with the loss of their head, several of their more talented and younger retainers, one of which we know today as Tokugawa Ieyasu, are able to claim independence. And Ieyasu establishes himself in his home territory of Mikawa, which is just to the east of Owari, and establishes an alliance with Nobunaga, thus providing a secure flank to Nobunaga's east, allowing Nobunaga to then look in other directions as he begins to expand.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
The two sides meet in July of 1570 at the Battle of Anegawa, where Nobunaga was joined by his ally Tokugawa Ieyasu. And they fight this battle in the shallow Anagawa River, both sides plunging into the water to engage the enemy. So if you picture this dramatic battle in this shallow river, Tokugawa, on Nobunaga's right flank, managed to route the Asakura and then crash into the flank of the Asai while at the same time Nobunaga sent his reserves around the other flank. And it causes the collapse of the enemy to create victory.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Many of them [Iga warriors] went to work for a retainer of Tokugawa Iyasu who has become famous in kind of ninja lore, man by the name of Hattori Hanzo. And Hattori Hanzo had family ties to Iga. He's often referred to or portrayed as in pop culture as a ninja, but he was a samurai retainer, a warrior just like many of the warriors that fought for any of the Daimyo of this period. He appears in most of Tokugawa Iyasu's battles until Hanzo dies in 1590s. He is considered one of Tokugawa Iyasu's closest retainers, but because through his family ties, he had a knowledge base of these sort of unconventional guerilla tactics. He also had through those ties, the ability to kind of act as a landing place for many of these men of Iga. And so many of them went to work for Tokugawa Ieyasu under the command of Hattori Hanzo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
==The Jesuits==
===[[Francis Xavier]]===
Francis Xavier was a Jesuit and one of the founding members of the Jesuits. He was asked to travel to Asia to begin doing missionary work there. He was asked especially by King John III of Portugal because he was very keen on trying to get as many Asians adhering to the Christian religion. Xavier had quite a correspondence with King John about all what he did in Asia and it wasn't what he expected. In 1542 he came to India but he didn't get good results so he tried to go to Malacca but there also there was not much interest for his propagating of the faith. And there he met with a Japanese called Anjiro, probably his real name was Yajiro, and he told him about Japan and also some Portuguese merchants who had gone to Japan told him that that will be the country where you really are going to get a lot of people converted to Christianity. So he had a lot of expectations for Japan and in 1549 he finally set foot on Japan. So that was really the first time that the Jesuits arrived in Japan only six or seven years after the first Portuguese came there.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
when Xavier came in Japan, he landed in Satsuma, Kagoshima, which is in the southern part of the Kyushu island, and you had a warlord there, Shimaze Takahisa, and he welcomed Xavier very much because he had a motive. If the Jesuits would come, he thought the Portuguese merchants would follow. So he treated Xavier very well and he gave him permission to preach the Gospel in his domains, but after a year, no Portuguese ship arrived, so then he prohibited Christianity and Xavier was compelled to go to another domain, which was the Hilado domain of Matsura Takanobu, and just at that time there was a Portuguese vessel there. And when the Portuguese saw the Jesuits, so Xavier and his companions, they greeted them with utmost respect. And Takanobu saw that, so he thought, okay, I have to treat them also with respect so that the Portuguese traders could come, because those Portuguese traders, they got a lot of products.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
And he thought that if he goes to the emperor in Kyoto, in the capital, that the emperor would give him permission to preach in whole of Japan, and that he would have a lot of success because he saw that the lot of a small domain, when he gave permission, he got the chance to convert a few people. If the upper lord of the country would give him permission, he thought he would be in a good position to convert a lot of Japanese. So he went to Kyoto, but that materialized not very well because Kyoto at the time was in the midst of warfare, so he didn't have the chance to meet with the emperor nor with the shogun.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
So afterwards, he went back from Kyoto. He got back to Hirado, where he put on very expensive clothes and then went again to the court of Ōuchi. And then he was received very well. He also gave a lot of presents, which he had brought from Portugal. And Ōuchi was very policed with that and gave permission for the Jesuits to preach their gospel in his domains.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
Xavier left in 1551, but soon there came more and more Jesuits.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
So and Francis Xavier, the Jesuit priest, showed up in Japan at that time. He showed up in a city called Yamaguchi. And his theory was, I will go to Kyoto. I will convert the emperor to Catholicism. And then everybody else in the whole country will follow him. And he got to Kyoto. It was a complete wreck. It was sort of a burnt out ruin. He couldn't find the emperor. So he gave up.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
 
===[[Gaspar Vilela]]===
Gaspar Vilela is one who stands out. He was a very keen propagator of the Christian faith, and he could convert some warlords to Christianity. One of them was Omura Sumitada, who eventually would give a port to the Jesuits, which was called Nagasaki.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
And they also had a problem that after a while you have [Francisco] Cabral, you have [Gaspar] Coelho, so two Jesuits who became the head of the Japan sector. And they weren't very keen to adopt Japanese customs. They wanted to be as strictly Jesuits as in Europe. So they already have a problem from the Jesuit side and many like Vilela or Fróis were more inclined to adopt Japanese customs. But the heads of the provincials, as they call them, were against that.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
===[[Alessandro Valignano]]===
And then you have, of course, Valignano, which was the visitor, as he was called, to the Orient. So he was the head of all the actions in the Orient, and he spent a lot of time in Japan, because Japan was the place where the Jesuits thought they would have the best results.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
He was the bodyguard of a Jesuit, the head Jesuit in Asia, essentially the head of the Christian church in Asia, a man called Alessandro Valignano. And Valignano was on a tour from Rome. He'd been sent by the Pope to tour the new missions in Asia and of course, Japan was the furthest of these missions.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 4: Yasuke: The First African Samurai</ref>
 
Valignano himself, the visitor, the chief inspector of churches, if you like, was a big proponent of learning any language. He started the concept of Asian studies. Asian language studies in Europe were started by him. He was the person who insisted that his missionaries study Chinese, Japanese, various Indian languages, so it's conceivable that Yasuke had already started to learn Japanese before he arrived.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
===[[Francisco Cabral]]===
And they also had a problem that after a while you have [Francisco] Cabral, you have [Gaspar] Coelho, so two Jesuits who became the head of the Japan sector. And they weren't very keen to adopt Japanese customs. They wanted to be as strictly Jesuits as in Europe. So they already have a problem from the Jesuit side and many like Vilela or Fróis were more inclined to adopt Japanese customs. But the heads of the provincials, as they call them, were against that.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
==Other==
===[[Mutsuhito]], Emperor Meiji===
And in 1868, the then emperor [Mutsuhito, Emperor Meiji] who was 14, I think, or 16, he was a teenager, marched or didn't march. He was carried by Palanquin, top with a Phoenix, up to Edo and into Edo castle, which became the imperial palace and Edo became Tokyo, which is the eastern capital. So therefore, Kyoto was no longer the capital at all. It was no longer the official capital.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
===[[Akechi Mitsuhide]]===
he's just setting out in early part of 1582 for the next part of that campaign staying at a temple called Honnoji in Kyoto when he's attacked actually not by his enemies but by someone who is supposed to be on his side one of the famous treacherous figures I suppose in Japanese history man by the name of Akechi Mitsuhide who persuades his men to turn their guns on Oda Nobunaga and his own men and so you have these stories of Oda Nobunaga shouting out treachery or traitors or something like that trying to fight them off himself the temple ends up in flames and Oda Nobunaga retreats further into the temple and dies by his own hand.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 02">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 2: The Unification of Japan</ref>
 
There's quite a lot of emphasis on how important this is. And this could be the masterstroke that basically secures Western Honshu for Nobunaga. So he's returned to Kyoto, and Nobunaga sends his retainer Akechi Mitsuhide with Akechi's army as the initial force to go reinforce Hideyoshi out west. And for reasons that are not quite clear, but of course, lead to lots of speculation and dramatic interpretation. Akechi decides that instead of turning west to go support Hideyoshi, he's going to turn his forces east, march into Kyoto, surround the residence of Nobunaga, which is the Honnō-ji Temple in central Kyoto. It's where he normally took up residence when he was in the city, and attack his own war.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
We don't really know why we don't really get any full explanation of Akechi's motives. There's lots of speculation that it had to do with resentment at court treatment by Nobunaga. One thing that we do know is that Akechi's mother had been killed by a rival clan where Akechi had given them his mother as a hostage, as insurance essentially against an attack. And Nobunaga superseded that and ordered the attack anyway. So they killed Akechi's mother. Other things are rumors that he was physically abusive and verbally abusive to Mitsuhide personally.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But for whatever reason, Akechi decides that this is his moment while Nobunaga is lightly guarded. He's certainly not expecting anybody to attack him in Kyoto. They surround Nobunaga's residence, set out on fire. Nobunaga and his guards fight back, but are eventually overwhelmed. Nobunaga commits suicide. And then his heir as well, who was also in Kyoto, is attacked by Akechi's forces and dies. So in one stroke, the Akechi have eliminated, basically decapitated the Oda family and thus ended Nobunaga's career.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
===[[Yasuke]]===
we know that he's from Africa, but we don't know for certain which parts of Africa, apart from that it would have been on the East Coast. The descriptions we have from Japanese descriptions are very much of somebody from what is now South Sudan, very tall, very black, very strong. Whereas there's a couple of sources which suggest he might have come from the Mozambique area. However, he doesn't fit the description very much of people from that region. There's also the full possibility that he could have been somehow trafficked from the South Sudan area down south and come through Mozambique as well.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 4: Yasuke: The First African Samurai</ref>
 
He arrived in May 1579 on a ship from Macau to get from Africa, whichever part of Africa it was to Macau and then to Japan. He'd already spent time in India. He'd spent time in Malacca in modern day Malaysia. And I think it was about six to nine months in Macau. He was the bodyguard of a Jesuit, the head Jesuit in Asia, essentially the head of the Christian church in Asia, a man called Alessandro Valignano. And Valignano was on a tour from Rome.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
It's highly likely that he would have been Christian, at least on paper.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
In those days, he was considered a giant<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
Yasuke is recorded two years afterwards as having quite a good level of Japanese. [...] He [Valignano] was the person who insisted that his missionaries study Chinese, Japanese, various Indian languages, so it's conceivable that Yasuke had already started to learn Japanese before he arrived.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
Another one, when getting to Miyako, which is now Kyoto, a huge mob literally surrounded the mission and almost pushed the mission down, throwing stones. There were dead people in the crowd outside. And at that point, Nobunaga, who was the most powerful warlord in Japan at the time, was five minutes walk away. He heard this huge hullaballo, which he liked. He heard what was going on. And he demanded to see who was disturbing the peace, demanded that this person be brought before him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
Somehow within a few days, Yasuke has entered Nobunaga's service. Within a month, he's gone to Nobunaga's castle town. There's another Jesuit record from there. And there's a Japanese record from there as well that says how much Nobunaga enjoyed talking to him, that he gave him a house, that he gave him a sword. And that's where the idea that he became a samurai comes into it.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
There's another record of their first audience where Nobunaga gifts him what is essentially 30 kilos of coins. And you can imagine that as a kind of joke as well. Give the strong man 30 kilos worth of money and see if he can actually carry it. It doesn't say whether he carried it away on his own or not, but that was a lot of money.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
So Yasuke was there at Nobunaga's death. He possibly was the last person to see him alive. Nobunaga was killed in a coup d'etat, essentially. He was heading to the front with this small corps of men over which Yasuke was one, around 30 people. And one of his generals, basically, we still don't know to this day why, he brought his whole army of 13,000 and attacked. They were all gunned down, essentially. Nobunaga, with Yasuke and his lover, [Mori] Ranmaru, come into the middle of the temple where their last moments are held. The temple's on fire around them. And Nobunaga really is going to know what happened in that room because there's only three people and they all died, except for Yasuke. But we only know that Yasuke survived because the Jesuits recorded as such. We don't know what he saw, unfortunately. The normal legend goes Nobunaga cut his belly, Ranmaru took his head off as his second, and then one supposes that Ranmaru then cut his belly and Yasuke took off Ranmaru's head. And the supposed last order is Yasuke save my head. Yasuke runs with the head to Nobunaga's son, who is probably about five to ten minutes walk away, very close, in a different temple. So about to be attacked. Also just putting up the defenses for a last ditch stand. Of course, that doesn't last very long. He's dead within the hour or so. And all we know from the Jesuit source, there are no more Japanese sources, all we know from the Jesuit source is that Yasuke was there at the last. He was one of the few survivors. He was taken prisoner. He surrendered his sword. And he was then escorted to the Jesuit mission, which was again only five minutes walk away. This is a very small area of Kyoto where all this happens. The Jesuits give thanks to God for his deliverance.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 04"/>
 
===[[Hattori Hanzō]]===
Many of them [Iga warriors] went to work for a retainer of Tokugawa Iyasu who has become famous in kind of ninja lore, man by the name of Hattori Hanzo. And Hattori Hanzo had family ties to Iga. He's often referred to or portrayed as in pop culture as a ninja, but he was a samurai retainer, a warrior just like many of the warriors that fought for any of the Daimyo of this period. He appears in most of Tokugawa Iyasu's battles until Hanzo dies in 1590s. He is considered one of Tokugawa Iyasu's closest retainers, but because through his family ties, he had a knowledge base of these sort of unconventional guerilla tactics. He also had through those ties, the ability to kind of act as a landing place for many of these men of Iga. And so many of them went to work for Tokugawa Ieyasu under the command of Hattori Hanzo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
There's actually a gate of what is now the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, but underneath the Tokugawa Shoguns was the Shogun's Palace. One of the gates is named the Hanzo Mon, the Gate of Hanzo, the Hanzo Gate. And this is because Hattori Hanzo and the men of Iga that he recruited acted as a special guard force for the Tokugawa Shoguns.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>

===Owari===
So once Nobunaga has control of Owari province, how does he then go about looking outward and beyond his own borders? Because his province is quite a small one comparatively as well, isn't it? Yes, so Owari is small, but it centers on a plane, the Nobuy plane, Japan is very mountainous, right? There's only a few large flat areas where cultivation can take place at large scale, and Owari happens to sit in one of these, the Nobuy plane. So while it's a small province, it's a particularly wealthy one in terms of agricultural income. So it's a good place to be based out of. It's far enough away from the capital that you're not in the middle of the intrigues and plots going on there, but it's close enough that you can get there if you decide to be part of those plots.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
===Mount Hiei===
when Emperor Kamu had the capital built there, one of the things he knew was that there was already in the northwest a mountain called Mount Hiei on which was a huge Buddhist temple. So that therefore counteracted the unluckiness. That was very important. And then more Buddhist temples and more Buddhist temples were built on that same mountain. And in the end, there was something like 3000 Buddhist temples up there, which was all an excellent thing for countering the unluckiness, except it became rather unlucky itself, because those Buddhist priests then came down and started rampaging around the city. And then, unluckily, Nobunaga had to go up and destroy the entire temple compound, which he did. He burnt down the whole lot. But there are temples there again.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
===Kamakura===
Okay, that's really interesting question. So the first segment of the samurai rule, the samurai's so-called headquarters was in Kamakura that's currently Kamakura city near Tokyo. So the Tokyo city was not known at the time that Tokyo was a city yet, but the Kamakura was not known nationwide. So when the Kamakura rulership was going on and being consolidated, it's not that many people would know about the politics. So it's like say regional understandings of this is where Shogun lives and this is what Shogun does. [...] So around the first sort of segment of time, the very first samurai rules, I would say that not so many people would know about the politics. That will continue the middle segments of the samurai rule that we call usually medieval Japan. And then medieval Japan as well, this Kamakura headquarters of the samurai has been moved and taken by a different family.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 08">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 8: How To Fit In: Feudal Japan</ref>
 
==Timeline==
===Ōnin War [1467-1477]===
Ōnin War, running from 1467 to 1477. Huge damage done to Kyoto in the process of this war. It begins as a kind of succession dispute within the shogunate, but an enormous proportion of Kyoto is destroyed in fire. Lots of these different warrior constables from around the country end up coming to the Kyoto region to get involved. When that war ends, some of them go back to their provinces to find that someone else has usurped them. And that's someone else who has usurped them, manages to solidify their own power until they become what we would call daimyo, this real independent warlord. And in other cases, the warrior constables, when they go back to their provinces, they're the ones who managed to do that. Because this war, this Onin War, this 10 year conflict, pretty much destroys the idea of a functional shogunate. And so there really is no one in Kyoto anymore that you have to answer to.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
 
So it's a period when central authority in Japan has completely gone. So you've still got the emperor in Kyoto, but as we were saying a moment ago, they're kind of impoverished and not really able to do very much politically or militarily. You've also still got a shogun in Kyoto. So if we go to the end of the Onin War, 1477, which is also pretty much the beginning of this Sengoku era, you've got a shogun there, but they're also extremely poor.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>
 
This is the exact period after the Onin War when the Ashikaga shogunate is descending really into complete impotence. Their writ doesn't run far outside Kyoto and they haven't got much income. So they simply couldn't afford to put the silver on there.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>
 
So you mentioned the Onin War there, 1467 to 77, a bit of a succession crisis. Should we view that as the catalyst for the Sengoku period? I think that's right, yes.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01"/>
 
These two lords, I think it was the Hashimoto's and the Yamunas, have been itching to fight for a long time, and they fought for 10 years. It's said that they destroyed the whole of Kyoto. That's not quite true. They destroyed the upper class part of Kyoto. So 10 years of fighting included looting, arson, and all these other things. But this mainly happened. This was the temples. This was the palaces. That lot got destroyed. Meanwhile, the shogun who lived at that point was a guy called Yoshimasa, who was living during the end of the 15th century. And he retired. He was very interested in the arts, and he was not remotely interested in fighting. And he kept well out of this fighting. And he went off to the east of the city, and there he built a fabulous pavilion, the silver pavilion. And there he carried on having a life of leisure and art with his friends. While all this was going on in Kyoto, his pavilion was facing away from the city, so it didn't have to see it was burning. And it was facing towards the lovely mountains on the east. And he was, again, an amazing patron of the arts. And under him, ink painting flourished, pottery flourished, every possible art form. Oh, linked verse became very important. So the war came to an end.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
The part of the city that had not burnt down was the part where the merchants and the artisans were, because they were poor chaps. And so nobody bothered with looting them, but they weren't that poor. So they were actually supplying and selling stuff to both sides in this war and getting richer. And the end of the Onin war, this is the Onin war, everything had sort of fallen apart, because Kyoto was in such a state of devastation.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
The result of that was the whole society kind of fell apart. And a lot of the lords headed out to the provinces, partly because they were broke, because they'd had their houses burnt down. I mean, there are quite a lot of peasants and serfs could come out of the countryside into the city and recreate themselves as merchants or as artisans, because they could make things, they could sell things. And so a whole new culture grew from that period of incredible disaster.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07"/>
 
===Battle of Okehazama [1560]===
In 1560, the powerful daimyo Imagawa Yoshimoto to his east, enrolled [????] Toutomi, Suroga, and the Kawa provinces, and came from the illustrious Imagawa line, which was one of the pillars of the former Ashikaga shogunate. He decides, or it's usually assumed at least that he decides that he's going to make a run at marching on the capital of Kyoto to take charge of the central government. So he gathers together an army of 25,000 troops and begins his march east. And the first stop is, of course, his neighbor in Owari province, Nobunaga. So he has to go through Nobunaga's domain. On paper, this is going to be very easy. He's got 25,000 troops, which at the time was a very large army. And Nobunaga only has a few thousand men, maybe 2,500. So we're looking at roughly around a 10 to 1 disadvantage. But Nobunaga, despite the fact that his advisors all counsel him to withdraw into his castle at Kyosu and withstand a siege, he decides that that's a losing strategy. Because what's he going to do against an attack by an army that size? He decides that his best course of action is to try to seek an opening and attack.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
But the Imagawa forces by midday had made significant progress against the Odo forces invading. So the Imagawa army was much larger. It was rather spread out and divided. The vanguard had taken several of these forts that Nobunaga had. Yoshimori himself was with only a few thousand troops. And at his command post, they took a bit of a siesta, almost, if you will, in this small narrow gorge called Dengaku Hazama. And they were celebrating some of the Imagawa troops had already broken into the celebration sake in anticipation of their great victory that they saw coming because, you know, how could you see anything else? A little bit after this, there's a rainstorm. This was in the summer. So the rainy season in Japan. This thunderstorm breaks out and it really helps Nobunaga maneuver his forces through the mountains, through these narrow passes into position to attack Imagawa Yoshimoto's headquarters camp. They broke out of the tree line to attack the camp. And at first Yoshimoto assumes that it's a drunken brawl taking place amongst his men. Too late, he realizes that it's not that he's actually under attack. And shortly after that, two of the Otis samurai relieve him up his head. In the aftermath, the Imagawa forces deprived of their commander melt away in confusion. And we have this almost legendary victory by other Nobunaga outmanned ten to one, destroying the forces of this great daimyo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So it kind of makes a name for Nobunaga. Another key thing about this battle, though, and the aftermath is that in the confusion of the Imagawa family with the loss of their head, several of their more talented and younger retainers, one of which we know today as Tokugawa Ieyasu, are able to claim independence. And Ieyasu establishes himself in his home territory of Mikawa, which is just to the east of Owari, and establishes an alliance with Nobunaga, thus providing a secure flank to Nobunaga's east, allowing Nobunaga to then look in other directions as he begins to expand.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
===Ishiyama Hongan-ji War [1570-1580]===
I suppose there's a really good example of siege warfare involving Oda Nobunaga. So in Japan, you have these different Buddhist sects and one of them, Ojoro Shinshu, was particularly powerful and particularly worrying for Oda Nobunaga because the people in this particular sect could be almost pitted out at the last minute to become a kind of pop-up army so that the patriarch, for want of a better word, of this particular sect could issue a statement against Oda Nobunaga as he did, declaring him an enemy and saying that people would be rewarded in the next life if they stand up against him. And the followers of this sect included some fairly wealthy merchants who could effectively equip themselves and feed themselves. So the danger of these pop-up armies appearing almost out of nowhere was extraordinary for Oda Nobunaga and he worried about it and he actually resented it very much. And so he launched a siege against the main compound in Osaka of the Jodo Shinshu sect, which lasted actually for a while. It wasn't entirely successful because Osaka, of course, is on the water and so the patriarch had allies, pirate Daimyo, I suppose you could call them, who for a while would supply the castle by sea. But Oda Nobunaga managed to defeat those pirates at sea and so after a while the Jodo Shinshu sect holed up in this fortified temple complex in Osaka had to give up. They did at the last minute, the sun, I think, of the patriarch, if I've got it right, when he was forced to come out, set fire to the place just before he came out on the basis that if the Jodo Shinshu sect cannot have that fortress anymore, then Oda Nobunaga certainly can't have it either.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
 
===Siege of Mount Hiei [1571]===
So there were quite remarkable sieges along the way, a company that has to be said, certainly in the case of someone like Nobunaga, with extraordinary slaughter. I think he particularly hated the idea that Buddhist sects would interfere in the running of the country. So there's another Buddhist sect, the Tendai sect, which he attacked on their mountain base called Mount Hiei, sent thousands of troops up there, killed everybody, burned everything, just destroyed the entire sect, including people unrelated to the sect who were living on the mountain. So this gives you an idea of how bloody and uncompromising some of this warfare could be.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 01">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 1: Civil War in Feudal Japan: The Sengoku Period</ref>
 
But in 1571, he realizes that the only way to solve his problem of encirclement is to break kind of the circle. So he starts with Mount Hiei, the Enuryakuchi temple complex that had given refuge to his enemies. And in the fall, he brings them out and has his troops advance up deliberately. And according to eyewitness accounts from the time that are written down, his troops are killing anything that's alive, whether it be monks, laymen, women, children, reportedly even every animal that's on the mountain. And they burn almost every building of this massive temple complex.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
And of course, in addition to the human toll, which is horrific, this is a massive loss of life, but it's also a loss of culture, of history. This was a major religious complex. So it had important documents, texts, artwork that all went up in flames with the exception of one small building that got overlooked.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
when Emperor Kamu had the capital built there, one of the things he knew was that there was already in the northwest a mountain called Mount Hiei on which was a huge Buddhist temple. So that therefore counteracted the unluckiness. That was very important. And then more Buddhist temples and more Buddhist temples were built on that same mountain. And in the end, there was something like 3000 Buddhist temples up there, which was all an excellent thing for countering the unluckiness, except it became rather unlucky itself, because those Buddhist priests then came down and started rampaging around the city. And then, unluckily, Nobunaga had to go up and destroy the entire temple compound, which he did. He burnt down the whole lot. But there are temples there again.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
==Groups==
===Iga ikki===
Iga at this time is ruled by an independent league or ikki that did not recognize any daimyo's hegemony and even gone so far as to expel the military governor of the province that had been appointed by the Ashkaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
we have the names of a couple of the senior leaders, if you will, but it really was more of a collective than any hierarchical organization that we would associate with like there being a daimyo and samurai underneath him and so forth. That's not to say that there wasn't a hierarchy there was, but it's really hard to just name one person as an acting figure on the Iga side of things. And part of this is because of the way that they constructed it. This is born out of sort of the chaos resulting in the wake of the Onin War of 1467 to 1477.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
In response to this as a way to limit internal conflict in their own ranks, in 1494 we see two documents. They're not quite constitutions in the way that we would think of it, but they kind of form the rules for local life within Iga as a community. The first one is a document signed by 350 commoners, peasants, villagers, and so forth. And it's an agreement to abide by specific rules that limit conflict over rice paddy land, access to forests, mountains, and fields, and it kind of gives a general code of conduct. So in the absence of authority coming from the center, they decide to create their own sort of rules for them to live by. And then later on that same year, we see another document signed by 46 people representing families of note from Iga Province.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
So these 46 families sign an oath, vowing not to fight over taxes or the collection thereof to work together to prevent insubordination of the peasants underneath them. And these two groups form a united front in coordination to maintain local order and peace and limit the amount of violence, whether it's internal or whether it's coming from external sources like bandits or even larger warrior organizations like Daimyo from a neighboring province who wants to move in. [...] There is a hierarchy. There are the upper class. Those 46 samurai families are in charge and so forth. But it is much more of a collective, we driven organization than certainly the Daimyo houses that we are normally associated with this period. Other leagues like this have risen up in other places at this time, fairly common in the absence of central authority for locals to take measures to protect themselves. But most other places, they didn't last very long  [...] So it was much easier for the Iga Iki to keep outsiders out than it would have been for other similar organizations, which is why they lasted as long as they did.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
Some advantages that the Iga ikki had. One is this long experience with unconventional warfare, we'll say. Another is that because of their makeup, it's not quite egalitarian or democratic in the way that we would think of it, but they're led by lower level warriors, localized power base holding warriors, but they integrate the commoner population, if you will, into their organization. Often you'll hear people talk about the Iga Shinobi clan or ninja clan or something like that. And that's misleading because this wasn't a family based organization in the way that we think of like the Oda being a military and political entity organized around the Oda family. That's not what this was, but they were able to conscript almost the members of the community from all levels, give them military training and utilize them in ways that we don't necessarily see to the same extent in other locations. So it wasn't just these 46 families that signed the oath document saying that they would work together and their household warriors. It was a mobilization of the entire community in essence to resist external aggression.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
===Ikkō-ikki===
Another group that around this time rises up to challenge his authority and one that will probably his longest running enemy is what's known as the Ikkō-ikki or the Ikko League. This was a confederation of followers of the true Pure Land Sept of Buddhism. And its headquarters was the Ishiyama Hongan-ji, which was located in what is now present day Osaka. But it had groups of adherents called these Ikki or leagues scattered throughout the provinces of central Japan. And in 1570, Nobunaga starts a war with them because the self-defense groups, these Ikki and the Ishiyama Hongan-ji itself resisted political and military control by local warrior rule. In fact, in 1486, the Ikko Ikki of Kaga Province overthrew the local dainyo and ruled the province without any samurai rule for almost 100 years.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
For 10 years until 1580, he's in this constant on and off war with the Ishiyama Hongan-ji and their ikko followers in various locations throughout the provinces. And they're really the linchpin of the various coalitions that are opposing Nobunaga. You know, at this point, these are kind of like the main enemies that he's looking at.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But in 1571, he realizes that the only way to solve his problem of encirclement is to break kind of the circle. So he starts with Mount Hiei, the Enuryakuchi temple complex that had given refuge to his enemies. And in the fall, he brings them out and has his troops advance up deliberately. And according to eyewitness accounts from the time that are written down, his troops are killing anything that's alive, whether it be monks, laymen, women, children, reportedly even every animal that's on the mountain. And they burn almost every building of this massive temple complex.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
The Ikko-ikki finally surrenders through the agency of the Court, the court noble is sent by the emperor to broker a settlement and a surrender by the Ishiyama Hongan-ji, which ends that.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
==The Jesuits==
===Gaspar Coelho===
And they also had a problem that after a while you have [Francisco] Cabral, you have [Gaspar] Coelho, so two Jesuits who became the head of the Japan sector. And they weren't very keen to adopt Japanese customs. They wanted to be as strictly Jesuits as in Europe. So they already have a problem from the Jesuit side and many like Vilela or Fróis were more inclined to adopt Japanese customs. But the heads of the provincials, as they call them, were against that.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 3: Portuguese Missionaries in Japan</ref>
 
And you had Otomo, which was a very powerful clan in the east of Kyushu. And then you had in the southwest, you had the Shimazu. And Otomo was losing against the Shimazu. So he asked Hideyoshi to intervene. And sometime before Hideyoshi marched towards Kyushu, he met with Coelho, which was then the head of the Christian mission in Japan, together with Fróis. And he treated Coelho very well, just like Oda Nobunaga had done with Fróis. So Coelho was really pleased with that. And then Hideyoshi asked him, I want to invade Korea. Then you provide two Portuguese ships to help me in this invasion. And if I conquer Korea, I will make it that there are a lot of churches being built. So Koelyo said, yes, I will do that for you. And I will make sure that we have two Portuguese ships, the Karak ships, as they were called by the English, gigantic ships. So Hideyoshi could very well use them for his invasion in Korea. And then he went a step further and he said, I will make sure that the Christian warlords in Kyushu will also support you. And I think at that moment that Hideyoshi, that there was a ring bell in his head, that the Christians, the Jesuits had too much influence in Japan.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
And when he had conquered Kyushu, he again met with Coelho on a Portuguese ship. And Coelho again said that we will support you in whatever endeavor you will take. But the night suddenly he sent a questionary to Coelho, asking him why they came to Japan, why they are making so much converts. And why are they destroying the Buddhist temples? Of course Coelho was really shocked with that. He was so well treated and suddenly everything changed overnight. So he gave his answer that, well, they came to Japan just to propagate their faith, in good faith. And that it was not them who destroyed the Buddhist temples, but the Japanese converts. So the answer of Hideyoshi was that he made a decree that the Jesuits had to leave Japan in 20 days.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 03"/>
 
==Oda family==
===Oda Nobukatsu/Kitabatake Tomotoyo===
He gained control of neighboring Issei province by first having his second son Nobukatsu adopted into the Kitabatake family, which ruled that province. And then later on, having the members of the Kitapatake clan assassinated so that his son rose up the hierarchy and essentially took over the clan from within.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 6: The Tensho Iga War</ref>
 
Oda Nobukatsu, was in charge of the province next to it and was looking to kind of establish his own reputation, spread his wings a little bit. And so here we have Iga province next to him, a place where he can launch an invasion, take it over. It's small. How hard could it be, right? Be an easy victory. And it turns out not to be.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
Nobukatsu, Nobunaga's second son, takes that [Iga's expulsion of their military governor] as an excuse of, oh, see, they're not observing the proper order of things. They're not part of the structure. So he decides of his own accord that he's going to expand his domain into Iga without permission from his father. Part of this is ego driven. He wants to prove to his father that he can operate on his own and so forth. So in 1578, he dispatches one of his generals, men by the name of Takigawa Kazumasu, to build a castle just across the Iga border that they're going to use as a staging point for a future invasion.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
So the following year in October, he decides he's going to launch a much larger invasion. So he gathers around a little over 10,000 men and invades Iga Province through three of those passes that I mentioned. In his main body, he has 8,000 men going through the northernmost pass at Nagano. And then he has a group of 1,500 men through one pass and 1,300 through another pass, these two passes to the south. But again, the Iga forces, speaking to their ability to collect intelligence and know what the enemy is doing, are ready and waiting at these narrow sites to ambush Nobukatsu's forces, which they do. They use their skill in guerrilla tactics and their local knowledge of the terrain. They inflict heavy losses against Nobukatsu's forces, again forcing him to retreat in a humiliating defeat.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
Nobunaga is furious. He couldn't believe that his son had put himself in position to be defeated and humiliated like this. So he supposedly threatens to disown Nobukatsu. He doesn't end up following through on it, but he's not pleased.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
Nobunaga himself visits Iga in early November to take a tour of his new province, and then withdraws it and gives it to his son Nobukatsu as part of his domain to administer.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 06"/>
 
==Shoguns==
===Ashikaga Yoshiaki===
The previous shogun, Ashikaga Yoshitero, had been assassinated in 1565 and replaced by a puppet. So Yoshitero's younger brother, a man by the name of Ashikaga Yoshiaki, had been traveling around the provinces trying to seek a benefactor who would back his claim and help him march on the capital. So shortly after Nobunaga establishes himself in Gifu, Yoshiaki arrives on his doorstep in 1568, thus giving him a pretext to make his move on the capital.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
The fact that he can take a legitimate claimant to the Ashikaga shogunate and march on Kyoto with utter the pretext of putting him into power gives him the legitimate of his siege to do so. So November of 1568, he enters Kyoto with his army and installs Yoshiaki as the 15th Ashikaga shogun. However, here's where things start to differ from what you might have expected at the time, because rather than accept Yoshiaki's offer to be his deputy shogun, Nobunaga declines that in any other position that Yoshiaki offers.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
In 1570, Nobunaga sends an invitation, sensibly on Yoshiaki's behalf, to local warlords for a reception in Kyoto. And this is almost a way to test who was going to accept his authority and who wasn't.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
Early assessments of their relationship by historians assume that Nobunaga's plan all along was to use him as a puppet and then throw him away and take power for himself. I agree with more recent biographers, you see it as a little bit more complicated than that. Ashikaga Yoshiaki, obviously, as the Shogun, felt that he should be in charge. So after being installed in 1568, he attempts to rule, but he quickly sees that he cannot do anything without Nobunaga's help. And by 1572, there's some real tension between the two of who's in charge. Nobunaga issued several admonishments, which have been published and are famous, going so far as to note how the people call Yoshiaki the evil Shogun, in scare quotes there, and laying out rules for the Shogun's house to follow. Of course, Yoshiaki takes offense at this and who are you to tell me the Shogun how to run things? And so, like I said, early on, historians looked at this as Nobunaga's overstipping his bow, just trying to push Yoshiaki out.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
I see a different reading of it that is more compelling to me is that, no, he really saw that this was like the structure that should be in place and was trying to guide Yoshiaki back onto an actual correct path of governance, at least as Nobunaga saw it. And his efforts to maintain relations with Yoshiaki, at least initially, were very sincere. But Yoshiaki is the one who kind of pushes the relationship to the breaking point. And the early 1570s, he's orchestrating coalitions of enemies to move against Nobunaga. In addition to the Iko Iki, he's kind of another lynchpin of the different coalitions against Nobunaga, trying to convince different daimyo to turn against Nobunaga, invade, come rescue me in Kyoto and be my savior and I'll grant you XYZ, so forth.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
This continues until 1573, when it's very obvious that Nobunaga has run out of patience. In 1573, he does march on Kyoto and expel Yoshiaki, which more or less ends the Ashikaga shogunate for good. And then Ashikaga would escape to Western Japan, where he would take up residence in the lands of one of Nobunaga's enemies, the Mori family. And from there, he would continue to write different daimyo, constantly trying to create a coalition that could overthrow Nobunaga and reinstall him in power. How effective that was? Well, we see that it didn't happen, but he certainly was doing his best the entire time to undermine Nobunaga.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
So one of their descendants, Yoshiyaki, was around and he was a pretty hopeless guy. But he was officially the Shogun. So Nobunaga's excuse for entering Kyoto was to reinstate him as Shogun. But actually, he, like a lot of these guys, is this Yoshiyaki. The Shogun was very treacherous. We wanted to get rid of Nobunaga, and he instigated a plot against him. So Nobunaga had him arrested and taken off to a castle in the middle of nowhere and left there forever. So that was the end of him.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 07">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 7: Kyoto: Japan's Imperial City</ref>
 
==Oda's enemies==
===Imagawa Yoshimoto===
the Oda family, as I said, they were the deputy governors underneath the Shiba family in Owari, and he's born as the first legitimate son of a man named Oda Nobuhide, who is the defacto leader of the Oda family. Like I mentioned, his line was not the senior line, but Nobuhide was particularly capable and competent and brought his relatives under his control and for the most part dominated the governance of Owari province. But he was in constant conflict with his neighbors, particularly the powerful Imagawa Yoshimoto to his east and a daimyo named Saitō Dōsan to his north in Mino province.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05">''[[Echoes of History]]'' – Shadows – Episode 5: Oda Nobunaga</ref>
 
So his first fight is to simply gain control of his own family, you know, largely inside of Owati province. There's some pressure from external enemies that Imagawa to the east.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
In 1560, the powerful daimyo Imagawa Yoshimoto to his east, enrolled [????] Toutomi, Suroga, and the Kawa provinces, and came from the illustrious Imagawa line, which was one of the pillars of the former Ashikaga shogunate. He decides, or it's usually assumed at least that he decides that he's going to make a run at marching on the capital of Kyoto to take charge of the central government. So he gathers together an army of 25,000 troops and begins his march east. And the first stop is, of course, his neighbor in Owari province, Nobunaga. So he has to go through Nobunaga's domain. On paper, this is going to be very easy. He's got 25,000 troops, which at the time was a very large army. And Nobunaga only has a few thousand men, maybe 2,500. So we're looking at roughly around a 10 to 1 disadvantage. But Nobunaga, despite the fact that his advisors all counsel him to withdraw into his castle at Kyosu and withstand a siege, he decides that that's a losing strategy. Because what's he going to do against an attack by an army that size? He decides that his best course of action is to try to seek an opening and attack.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>
 
But the Imagawa forces by midday had made significant progress against the Odo forces invading. So the Imagawa army was much larger. It was rather spread out and divided. The vanguard had taken several of these forts that Nobunaga had. Yoshimori himself was with only a few thousand troops. And at his command post, they took a bit of a siesta, almost, if you will, in this small narrow gorge called Dengaku Hazama.

They broke out of the tree line to attack the camp. And at first Yoshimoto assumes that it's a drunken brawl taking place amongst his men. Too late, he realizes that it's not that he's actually under attack. And shortly after that, two of the Otis samurai relieve him up his head. In the aftermath, the Imagawa forces deprived of their commander melt away in confusion. And we have this almost legendary victory by other Nobunaga outmanned ten to one, destroying the forces of this great daimyo.<ref name="Echoes Shadows 05"/>

==Animus Training Program - Quickstart==
<!--
The year is 2016.
 
The Assassin Brotherhood has been waging a secret war against their sworn enemy, the Templar Order, for thousands of years. The Templars aim to create a perfect society ruled by order and discipline, a goal that is in direct opposition to the ideals of the Brotherhood, which strive to defend the free will of humankind.
 
Central in the conflict between the Assassins and the Templars are the Pieces of Eden — extremely rare and powerful technological artifacts created by an advanced precursor civilization. It is believed that such artifacts could contain extensive knowledge or be used as weapons. Although the fight for their possession continues to this day, the Templars have been successful in collecting many of them.
 
A chance for the Brotherhood to regain lost ground in the war is the Animus device, a technology stolen from the Templars allowing for the exploration of memories encoded in human DNA. Using the Animus, the Assassin Brotherhood has a chance to locate other Pieces of Eden and deny the Templars from acquiring them first.


This is why the last to join this conflict are the modern day descendants of Brotherhood members who fought this covert war over the centuries. By entering the Animus, they can explore the memories of their ancestors, acquire information concerning the Pieces of Eden, and gain unique skills that would normally take

===FILE_01: <Pawns in a Secret War>===
The alarm neutralized and the lock picked, Inez opened the door to the warehouse. She'd taken off her leather jacket, covered in pins and chains and other things that might jangle the lone security guard awake. Maybe this score would get her off her friend's couch. The crates were piled high to the ceiling, lost in bright fluorescence, stacked like a very neat child's building blocks. She took the small flashlight out of her pocket and recited the aisle and tier where the box she was supposed to take sat. This was a rental facility, or so she was told, and light on security. Turned out to be anything but. She'd scaled the shelf to the fifth tier, about twenty feet up, her shoes gripping the shelf below. She found the box. It looked like a pen case but small, which was good because Inez wasn't big. In her head, she hummed a punk tune from the night before and for a moment, reconsidered how much she'd drank as her stomach turned while looking back down. Also, there were two men walking down the aisle between the shelves. They hadn't seen her yet, but she could tell they weren't rent-a-cops. It was the submachine guns that gave it away.
This is what she got for taking a job proffered at a party in Wicker Park. Way too artsy a crowd for her. She held her breath, tried very hard not to swear, and waited for the men to pass. When they did, she cat-climbed down to the concrete floor, crept around the end of the aisle, and saw them in front of the door she'd opened. The door she hadn't closed all the way because... hangover. About 400 pounds of muscles nullified that exit. She'd have to find another way out.
The skylight it was. The panels were open and she'd considered going in through the roof anyway. So, hell, why not? Worst that could happen is she falls, gets caught, and spends more time in jail, right?
She made it to the skylight and was levering open one of the panels when the first bullet starred the glass in front of her. No more being careful, she hauled her ass through the window, sneakers finding traction on the roof and bolted for the fire escape… which, of course, had another slab of guard meat coming up it just then. This was some serious security. The man fired at her, spent brass moving in seeming slow-mo as the muzzle flashed. But Inez had run to the edge by then, said screw it, and jumped to the next roof, which she was not at all sure she'd make it to until she landed. From there, she ran off the edge of that roof and caught a light pole down to the street. Before she had time to pat herself on the back, there was another of the guards with a gun right in her face.
“You Descendants think you're untouchable. The Templars think otherwise.” He was about to pull the trigger. Then, she was covered in blood. Someone had stepped around the edge of an alley with a silenced pistol. He wore black, nondescript clothes and was maybe a few years older than Inez. Automatic fire raked the alley behind him as he fired at the guard coming down the fire escape. Inez turned, some instinct telling her that the other guards were outside by now and, sure enough, two positioned themselves behind the loading dock and took a bead on her would-be rescuer. He saw one in time to pop him, but the other, well, Inez hadn't fired a gun since one of her mom's interchangeable boyfriends taught her, but she had a knack and put two rounds into the other guard's chest. Then, she dropped the gun, screamed, and started shaking. She didn't make it far out of the alley, or the street, beyond before her rescuer pulled her down. Everything moved as if through a world of transparent syrup.
She watched her hand open a car door, getting in the passenger side. The guy gunned the already humming engine. He turned to her, face awash in the street's wet neon refracted through beaded rain on the windshield and said, “You ever consider more steady work?” That's when she finally breathed again then said, “What the hell is a Templar?”

====THE ASSASSIN BROTHERHOOD====
{{Quote|To say that everything is permitted is to understand that we are the architects of our actions and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic.|Ezio Auditore}}
The Assassins are an ancient worldwide secret organization dedicated to preserving mankind's freedom of choice. They believe that only free will can ensure the betterment of humanity, as it allows for the birth of new ideas and innovations through trial and error.
To reach their lofty goal, they stand up for the oppressed, eliminating in secrecy any tyrant and dictator threatening the freedom of the people. This ideology and modus operandi set them in direct opposition with a powerful mirror organization throughout their long history — the Templars, who believe that the only way to ensure the survival of humanity is to save it from itself, removing free will.
The Brotherhood's ideals were born in ancient times, supposedly in Greece. Their first incarnation — the Hidden Ones — was established in Egypt at the end of the Ptolemaic Kingdom.
=====MODERN DAY BROTHERHOOD=====
{{Quote|The Templars might have deeper pockets than us, but they've got no ambition, no passion, no competitive edge! That's why, even with all their resources, anything they can do, I can do better. Faster, too.|Rebecca Crane}}
The modern day Brotherhood is organized into small cells of Assassins, usually located in major cities or strategic sites, but also in isolated compounds outside urban centers with more substantial Templar presence. In general, modern cells function differently than the guilds of the past and can be described as solitary units of freedom fighters training and living off the grid.
=====ASSASSIN TRAINING=====
Becoming an Assassin requires rigorous training. A vital part of an apprentice coaching is learning to observe a situation in great detail, as being well informed means being able to make the best possible decision. This is more than just watching — it means taking note of the context of a situation, absorbing as many details
as possible, and collecting information via espionage.
Once the action starts, stealth and concealment are among an Assassin’s greatest assets. Being able to reach a target furtively, deal with it quickly and efficiently, then slip away without anyone noticing is fundamental. Trainees practice the art of “hiding in plain sight” extensively, learning how to blend in a crowd, to move away or disappear completely.
Trainees are also taught to take advantage of shadows and find alternate ways to reach their destination. ‘Freerunning’ is their main asset here — an acrobatic form of movement that involves navigating fluidly across an urban or natural landscape, it involves climbing vertical surfaces such as walls, leaping horizontally or vertically, diving, vaulting, swinging from handholds, dropping, and rolling. While equipment is not required, various gear has been developed over the years to enhance an Assassin’s ability. Tools such as hooked blades, whips, and the grappling hook/rope launcher extension to the Assassin’s gauntlet have all been used by various Assassins to aid in their freerunning.
Finally, all apprentices undergo extensive weapons and combat training, specifically with blades. Other than the Hidden Blade, the Assassins make use of what they excel at. Unfortunately, the clandestine nature of the Brotherhood makes it difficult to instruct all trainees in the same way. Many initiates must learn what they can from fellow Assassin crew members and cell mentors, and often must do it in do-or-die circumstances.
Not all Assassins are trained to be fighters, although they all share a basic level of competence in self-defense. Initiates are often encouraged to develop their interests into strong points for the Brotherhood, for the more diverse and complementary the knowledge and specialization of the trainees, the more a group of Assassins will be helpful to the cause. Engineering, medicine, history, sleight of hand, computer hacking, or combat, everything might serve the cause at the right moment.
=====The Doctrine=====
{{Quote|You cannot know anything. Only suspect. You must expect to be wrong, to have overlooked something.|Malik Al-Sayf}}
To help the Assassins put their philosophy into practice the Brotherhood developed a protocol, maintained by three simple rules — the Three Tenets.
;I. Stay your blade from the flesh of the innocent
Your goal is to ensure peace in all things. The Brotherhood believes that by assassinating evildoers and corrupted ones they will ultimately bring peace, freedom, and security to the people. Killing innocents could stir anger and dissent among those who they are supposed to save and protect.
{{Quote|There is freedom, and there is the life of innocents. Both must be balanced on the scale.|Bayek of Siwa}}
;II. Hide in plain sight
You must be unseen. Assassins must get close to their targets stealthily and be gone as quickly as possible in order to perform awe-inspiring killings when in public.
{{Quote|Let the people mask you such that you become one with the crowd.|Al Mualim}}
;III. Never compromise the Brotherhood
Your actions must never bring harm to all. Should an Assassin fail in their duty and be captured or tracked down, they must avoid giving away anything that could tie them back to the Brotherhood or bring harm to any of its members.
{{Quote|Its meaning should be obvious. Your actions must never bring harm upon us — direct or indirect!|Al Mualim chastising Altaïr Ibn-La’Ahad, 1191 CE}}
The Three Tenets appear simple, but in fact they present all Assassins with a complex and challenging set of ethical puzzles when they are applied to the usual methods employed by the Brotherhood.
====The Templar Order====
{{Quote|The people never have the power. Only the illusion of it. And here’s the real secret: they don’t want it. The responsibility is too great to bear. It’s why they’re so quick to fall in line as soon as someone takes charge. They want to be told what to do. They yearn for it. Little wonder, that, since all mankind was built to serve.|Haytham Kenway}}
The Templar Order seeks the creation of a perfect society by imposing a rigid structure upon the world. Discipline and authority form the cornerstone of their strategy, positioning them in direct contrast with the approach of the Assassin Brotherhood. They consider free will and unbridled evolution to be detrimental and firmly believe that the world can achieve stability and peace only through their enlightened guidance.
In practical terms, the Templars support the centralized leadership of the authoritarian governments of the world, taking action to shape and control society as needed and exploiting revolts and revolutions to their advantage, like puppeteers behind a curtain.
Their ideology centers around the idea that only structure and order will allow humankind to transcend its more primitive tendencies, and that free will and autonomy leads to a chaotic, unharmonious society. Essentially, the unwashed masses cannot be trusted to govern themselves. Paradoxically, the Templars are ultimately in pursuit of peace, just like the Assassins. It is their means of achieving that goal which differ.
The Templar Order has existed under one form or another for millennia. Little is known about its history before the 5th century BCE, but archeological data seem to indicate that it rose to power in Persia, Egypt, and beyond as a secret society. Initially known to initiates as the Order of the Ancients, they started to operate openly in the Middle Ages, when the Order of the Knights Templar was recognized officially during the Council of Troyes in 1129 CE. By the end of the 13th century, the Order had been greatly weakened by the Assassin Brotherhood and their allies, until they were forced to return to anonymity after a public denunciation as heretics.
Diminished but not destroyed, the Templars continued to influence mankind from the shadows, manipulating history’s most influential figures. With their help, they would carry on their age-old quest, helping humanity to reach its full potential through technical and scientific development.
=====Modern Day Templars=====
At the dawn of the 20th century, the Templars felt that a new era was about to begin — a time where scientific progress would not only flourish, but also quite literally change the very fabric of society. In 1910, the Order’s leaders designed te Plan. Twenty-seven years later, a group of influential Templar industrialists founded Abstergo Industries, a multinational corporation that would become the public face of the Order.
For the second time in its millennia-old history, the Order was at least in some small way made public. The Templars, however, would not repeat the mistakes of the past. They determined that Abstergo would be used as a front, and take full advantage of the vast resources the company would provide, while the Templars would continue to operate behind the scene, never revealing their identity or real agenda.
Today, Abstergo Industries is one of the largest and most powerful corporations in the world.
=====Abstergo Industries=====
{{Quote|We are committed to researching, developing, and providing high-quality products
that enrich, entertain, and shape the lives of our customers. We build programs that
re-examine the past, improve the present, and define the future.|Abstergo Industries Mission Statement}}
In the modern day, Abstergo Industries operates within several business sectors, including pharmaceuticals and communications. The company has been responsible for the majority of corporate research and development achievements of the Western world, greatly contributing to the technological and economic advancement of humankind.
Behind the scenes, Abstergo has developed a three-part, Templar-directed initiative that non-initiate Abstergo employees are not privy to: to destroy the Assassin Brotherhood, to acquire Precursor technology, and to establish a New World Order.
To accomplish this initiative, Abstergo has spent enormous capital, investing in foreign governments and funding important corporations, quietly strengthening its influence over the dissemination of knowledge and collecting resources and data.
====The First Civilization====
{{Quote|They’re gifts, Mr. Miles. From those who came before.|Dr. Warren Vidic on the Pieces of Eden, 2012}}
Little is known about the Isu, the Precursors, or Those Who Came Before, but their civilization spanned the entire planet before mankind even appeared. This ancient race, now extinct, was so advanced that modern day scientists — at least the few fortunate enough to have come across their technology — have not yet even begun to fathom the full extent of their function.
It is exactly the products of such technology that the Templar Order is bent on finding. In particular, they seek the artifacts known as the Pieces of Eden — incredibly complex devices that the Isu created to enforce obedience on humankind. In fact, while archeological evidence is scanty, all data gathered so far (mainly by the Templars) seem to indicate that the Precursors employed humans as slaves.
While the full and direct enslavement of humankind is not something the Templars desire, the fact that the function of most of the Pieces of Eden seems to be achieving the mental and physical control of human thoughts, emotions, and behavior, makes them an invaluable instrument towards achieving their goal of creating a society based on the choices of an enlightened few.
To find the Pieces of Eden, the Templar Order employs the Animus device developed by Abstergo Industries. By probing the past, the Templars are sure they will discover the whereabouts of these lost treasures one after the other.
====Animus Technology====
{{Quote|Animus technology functions in much the same way a simulator/projector does. Your consciousness will tap into the genetic coding in such a way that everything will appear to all your senses as three-dimensional, putting you in the heart of the action. It’s adaptive, so as the memories unfold, the “program” you experience begins to change subtly. They will appear to you as glitches and let you explore a memory much more closely|The Abstergo Entertainment Employee Handbook, 2014}}
The first Animus device was developed by Abstergo Industries between the seventies and eighties of the 20th century under the direction of Doctor Warren Vidic, one of the modern world’s greatest authorities on genetic memory. The revolutionary work of Doctor Vidic was inspired partially by Precursors’ technological findings, and aimed at creating an empirical way to analyze and investigate genetic memories employing virtual reality simulations.
In time, the Animus technology was refined into an accurate tool allowing its user to truly interface with history itself. As users improve their synchronization level within a simulation, the Animus allows them to delve deeper and deeper into genetic memories, unlocking secrets that would otherwise remain buried in the sands of time.
But the Order found other uses for Doctor Vidic’ breakthrough technology. The Templars first developed the Animi Training Program, an initiative employing the virtual experience simulator to train selected Abstergo employees to better confront members of the Assassin Brotherhood. Then, Abstergo started secretly collecting genetic memories from the unknowing public through the worldwide release of an Animus entertainment console capable of stealing data from the genetic memory of users and storing it for potential use.
===The Nanban Trade===
Japan, 1558. A Portuguese merchant ship is leaving the coast of the Owari province. As it often happens, the Simulation begins with a white flash and muffled sounds rising up to acquire a disarming clarity. Soon, the muted sounds become a cacophony of shouting voices, gunfire, and the clanging of blades. The information was accurate. The foreigners have the arquebuses that the Daimyo Oda Nobunaga wants.
===INTRODUCTORY SESSION===
[The Chapter is also the prologue to The Sword of Mars, the first campaign adventure included in the Assassin’s Creed - Forging History book.<br>The introductory Chapter requires 1 of the characters to be Philip J. Gallagher, whose World War 2 Time Frame’s Ancestor, Major Gallagher, was a witness to the events included in the Sequence.]
It’s 2016. The modern day Crew of Descendants has gathered in London, coming from different places around the world. One of their Brotherhood contacts in the UK, Siegmund “Ziggy” Visser, has reached out to each of them after having spent weeks collecting evidence concerning a lost piece of Precursor technology that might be related to some of their Ancestors. His current hideout is a rundown, closed theater in the middle of Camden Town previously known as "The Stardust". In the club’s backstage, Ziggy has set up an Abstergo Animus device, recently modified to connect to a number of commercial Brahman VR visors to allow multi-subject simulations.
[...]
Ziggy will work as the Descendant’s field techie, monitoring their performance in the Animus and keeping track of their discoveries.
===Lugers and Ballerinas===
'''Time Frame''': World War II<br>
'''Location''': Folies Bergère, Paris, France - 1942 CE<br>
'''Starting Sync Level''': 55% (3 Key Objectives)<br>
'''Description''': During the Nazi occupation of France, a private party is organized at the Folies Bergère, one of the most famous cabaret music halls in Paris. The event’s organizer is Wilhelm Schmidt, an SS Obersturmführer and low-rank- ing member of the Templar Order. The night is expected to be attended by soldiers, officers, and local celebrities.
At the beginning of the Simulation, the Witnesses gather outside the Folies Bergere club, safe from prying eyes. Their mission is to infiltrate the structure during the night’s event to recover some precious intel regarding the recent activities of Sturmbannführer Heinz Müller, a Seneschal Templar.
====Sequence start====
A fine drizzle wets the road in front of the Folies Bergère, whose external lights create colorful projections on the sidewalk. If it weren’t for the German uniforms crowding the area, everything tonight might look like it did in pre-war days.
From your hiding place, you can spot German trucks parked a short distance from the theater, and you have been observing cars carrying people in evening dresses coming and going for quite some time. Despite the rain and the people talking outside the building, you can hear the muffled music reaching the road whenever the theater doors open to let new guests in.
One last look at your watches, one last check on your gear, one last deep breath to let the sweet petrichor fill your nostrils. Time to go, Assassins.
====Key Objectives====
=====1 - Infiltration=====
Accessing the theater is the first goal to be achieved. There are a few access routes. At the back of the building, there is an entrance for waiters and theater workers. On the roof, a maintenance entrance can be accessed by easily jumping from the building adjacent to the theater. Finally, there’s the theater’s front door...
======Challenges======
;Patrol
A unit of 4 Wehrmacht soldiers patrols the perime- ter of the theater. They will take an interest in anyone acting suspiciously and will not accept anything less than a thorough explanation.
;Doorman
The show at the Folie Bergere is the event of the week in Paris and the list of guests is long. Convincing the doorman that you are on the list or that you are working for the event will require a good explanation.
;Flirting officer
Oskar Fiedler, a young officer, is smoking outside the theater’s back door, trying to impress and seduce a young dancer (Juliette Merion). He will be a thorn in the side of anyone passing by, as he will torment anyone who is not a German officer or a VIP, all to impress the young Juliette.
======Weaknesses======
;What do You Mean I’m Not on the List! (major)
The theater event attracted a lot of folks who weren’t invited and that ended up crowding the main door to get in. The confusion will make it easier to access with a proper ruse or disguise.
;A Secret Door (major)
The theater has a secret access from the Paris Métro Station of Cedet.
=====2 - Recover Templar intel=====
Sensitive documents are kept in an area of the theater that Schmidt uses as his office. However, the area is closed off for the duration of the event and two soldiers have been posted to guard the area.
Should the Witness gain access to the office, they will find that a number of documents crowd the office’s desk. The ones that attract their attention concern the movement of troops towards northern France, and the kidnapping of Lèo Dubois, a French professor of medieval history. All requested by Sturmbannführer Heinz Müller.
From what they can understand, Müller is moving to the north of France, seeking technology attributed to the First Civilization: Pieces of Eden? It is necessary to find Müller before he gets his hands on the artifact.
======Challenges======
;Nazi guards
The 2 guards at the entrance of the restricted area received specific and thorough orders that no one must enter here.
;Booby-trapped desk
While searching the desk for the documents, a Wits check is required to avoid the explosive trap set by Schmidt. On a failure, all Witnesses in the room must make a Reaction check. In any case, the explosion triggers the They’re Onto Us! Setback. The templar documents are a bit burned and damaged, but still readable.
======Weaknesses======
;Orders are Orders (minor)
If someone with a higher rank than the Obersturmführer Schmidt gives new orders to the guards, they will obey blindly.
;Let’s Have a Drink! (minor)
The guards are not happy about having to watch the restricted area and not being able to enjoy the party, so they will gladly have a chat with anyone approaching them and will also easily accept a drink (which could lead them to go to the bathroom earlier than expected, or allow the Witnesses to put something in their champagne…)
====Fade out====
Moments after completing the last mission’s objective, the simulation begins to fade, and sounds become muffled once again, except for Ziggy’s voice. He tells you that the memory block has been explored thoroughly and pulls you out of the Animus to get some rest.
====Setbacks====
;A SUSPICIOUS NAZI SOLDIER (MINOR).
A German soldier at the party takes an interest in the Witnesses and starts asking uncomfortable questions.
;FLYING BULLETS (MINOR)
Bullets start flying left and right. The Witness must make a Reaction check to avoid being injured.
;AN INNOCENT IS KILLED (MINOR)
One of the guests, a waiter or a dancer, is blamed for something by one of the German soldiers or officers, or gets accidentally killed. If a number of innocents equal to the number of Witnesses are killed during the chaos generated by the mission, the Witnesses lose 1 Sync level.
;THEY’RE ONTO US! (MAJOR)
The Witnesses have been discovered and now Lugers lead the dance. Panic erupts among the guests and workers and chaos takes over. For the rest of the scene, at the end of an Approach check, the Witnesses must make an additional Reaction check to avoid the German’s attacks.

===Abstergo Raid!===
'''Location''': The Crew’s hideout, Camden Town Market, London, UK<br>
'''Description''': As the Descendants are preparing to enter the Animus again to investigate where the recovered Templar intel led Major Gallagher in 1942, the Crew’s field techie’s attention is redirected to the surveillance screens monitoring the perimeter of the hideout. Bad news, someone is breaking in.
====Sequence start====
Red lights flash in every room and main hall of the Stardust. No sirens or alarms break the sudden silence that has fallen in the hideout. Faced with your questioning looks, Ziggy replies with a worried expression, a trickle of sweat running down his temple. “Damn! Looks like we got company, mates!”
Immediately after telling you this, he pushes some “magic buttons” and locks down the whole place. Then, security monitors start showing a group of armed individuals wearing black fatigues bearing the white triangular logo of Abstergo industries huddling outside the club, clearly trying to break in the front door. Another angle captures two more agents inspecting the perimeter of the building. “Hell’s bloody bells, let’s hope those mugs don’t find our trouble exit,” Ziggy says through gritted teeth before turning to look at you with a determined expression that seems to erase all worries: “Alright, grab yer stuff and the modified Brahmans! I’ll upload all our data to a secure server, but I need somebody to keep these Templar knobs at bay until I’m done. It’ll take me a few minutes. Then, we bugger off!”
====Key Objectives====
=====1 - Download the data and destroy all evidence=====
Ziggy starts hacking away at the workstation, shouting, “Buy me at least 5 minutes, otherwise, we’ll lose months of work.”
======Challenges======
;Set traps at the entrances
The Descendants can use what they have in the hideout to build a rudimentary trap. Whether it is effective or not, it doesn’t really matter. The Abstergo agents may still have to stop and defuse it.
;Face the agents
The agents are too many to overwhelm, but a well-executed attack might lead them into a tactical retreat while awaiting reinforcements.
======Weaknesses======
;Gasoline (major)
Fire is not a joke, and no one wants to rush into a building engulfed by flames, not even the Abstergo agents. Setting the lab on fire can slow the assault significantly, but can also put the PCs in great danger. Also, such an action triggers the Smoked Out Setback automatically.
=====2 - Escape=====
The Abstergo agents eventually burst in, fully equipped and ready to open fire. Everyone has to run and reach a vehicle to escape.
======Challenges======
;Run for your life
The Descendants must open their way to the nearest exit, dodging the agents’ bullets.
;Flashbang
As they flee, the Descendants see an agent preparing to throw a flashbang grenade. If they manage to deflect the grenade, the Descendants can gain a great advantage, especially if the explosive device ends up in the vicinity of the pursuing agents instead!
======Weaknesses======
;Communication disruption (major)
If the PCs have a way to jam the communications of the approaching Abstergo agents, they gain a significant tactical advantage, forcing them into a slower and uncoordinated attack.
====Setbacks====
;FLYING BULLETS (MINOR)
Bullets start flying left and right. The Witness must make a Reaction check.
;SMOKED OUT (MINOR)
Heavy smoke fills the air, making eyes water and breathing difficult. For the rest of the Sequence, all Wits checks require 1 additional Raise.
;DAMAGED GEAR (MINOR)
In the chaos of escaping, one of the Descendants breaks or loses a piece of equipment (an item must be removed from their Gear).
;THE FIELD TECH IS WOUNDED! (MAJOR)
Ziggy is injured by a stray bullet or in a hard fall. Someone must help him in order to escape. All Approach checks made by a Descendant helping Ziggy require 1 additional Raise.
====What's Next?====
As you drive away from the Stardust, Ziggy frantically hits the keys on his laptop while giving you directions about which roads to take and when to stop to avoid surveillance.
At least 45 minutes have passed when he makes you stop in a large parking lot near Park Royal says, “Now, we have to head towards this cell’s temporary hideout. It won’t be as well placed as the previous one, and we’ll undoubtedly miss the scrummy food. But at least it’s a safe place... for now.”
A few minutes later, you step into a neglected-looking warehouse on a road sided by many other warehouses and workshops. Ziggy switches on some barely working lights to illuminate a seriously dusty and plain interior, welcoming you to your cell’s new refuge and HQ with a loud, “...wicked, innit?!” He looks tired when he tells you that you’ll have to work hard to get the situation back on track. Ziggy needs replacement parts to fix “the Ol’ Baby”, his battered Animus 2.0 stored in the warehouse’s basement, before you can get back into the simulation and find out if Sgt. Major Gallagher has found the Piece of Eden he was looking for... the Piece of Eden YOU are looking for.
Get ready, Assassins, since only Abstergo Industries has what you need for repairs. It’s payback time!

;L'église Notre-Dame - 1374
L'église Notre-Dame, construite entre 1024 et 1110, est un bel exemple d'architecture romane. Au XVe siècle, un porche gothique vient embellir sa façade sud, tandis que le portail nord, du XIIe siècle, dévoile un étonnant bestiaire sculpté : animaux fantastiques et figures mystérieuses s'y côtoient. En 1374, Lusignan, alors sous domination anglaise, est assiégée par l'armée française. L'église a subi des dégâts durant le siège qui aura duré vingt mois.<br><br>Ce monument cache un indice portant la Marque d'Eden.

<small>An extremely rare ancient ceramic pot, or "ding," with an avian design. Once [sic] can speculate that this relic is used for sacrificial ceremonies. Ornamental creations already possessed vividly painted artwork in the ancient period this was made. This eagle-shaped ceramic pot is proof of the high degree of artistic ability possessed by our ancestors. This sacrificial vessel is a symbol of ancient peoples' totem worship.</small>
| width="33%" style="background: rgba(1, 1, 1, 0); border: 1px solid #aaa; padding: 12px 12px 12px" | <center>'''Gold Cloud-Pattern Bowl'''</center>
<small>A wine vessel made of pure gold with handles made of jade, it is one of only a handful of works of art that combine the two. The level of skill and the amount of thought put into its design far outweigh the monetary value of the gold itself. Though gold smelting has reached an advanced level, turning pure gold into everyday utensils is still rarely done. Jade and gold are seen as symbols of blessings and good fortune, which explains people's fondness for such valuable utensils.</small>

<small>The glass beads on the back of this mirror are not items that any common family can afford to use. Initially, such items could only be obtained via trade with the Xiongnu. It is said that such beads were transported from the land to the Far West. Later, a group of craftsmen developed a new method of firing the glass, which is the primary reason why the back of this mirror
is so extravagant.</small>

<small>A standard plucked zither with 25 strings. Decorated lavishly with ornamental patterns, such xithers are known as "gilded zithers" in the Rites of Zhou. Once a ritual musical instrument that only royalty could play, many have now found their way into the hands of common folk. Made with catalpa wood for the body and cow tendons as strings, zithers like these were played in rituals worshipping the heavens, especially during the Zhou dynasty. Confucians wish to revive this ritual system.</small>

<small>The palm-sized ornament features a pair of dancers and four musicians performing inside a house. The artist's uncanny ability to fit so much detail inside such a miniscule space makes this a stunning work of art. Thus we can see that the biggest difference between the nobility and commoners lies in the amount and type of amusements available to them. To the nobility, pleasure often takes higher priority than  making a living. This attitude is especially prevalent among young noblemen, not yet burdened with affairs of state, whose unending demands on musicians and entertainers can lead to some rather absurd and fantastical performances.</small>

;Une bourse
<small>Black ceramic wares are considered a novelty in every state, because only the people of Zhongshan can procure such wares. Zhongshan, being a state established by the Baidi people, has tried numerous times to get closer to the cultural sphere of the vassal states in the Central Plains. Producing these black ceramic wares is the result of such attempts. However, their identity as Baidi people has ultimately never been accepted. Even the state of Zhao, which introduced "barbarian-style" attire and horseback archery, has never once recognized Zhongshan as a "legitimate" vassal state.</small>
Cette bourse d'or pendait à la ceinture de Jacques Coeur, suggérant que ce dernier fût l'un des hommes les plus riche du royaume à l'époque. Une fois condamné à Lusignan, Jacques Coeur, est emmené à Poitiers, d'où il s'échappe.

<small>An idol revered by the "Tiger" faith, a relatively primitive religious group compared to other, more complex, religious groups of Didao Ridge. It is clear that this relic has been handed down across many generations. It is generally believed that the tiger symbolizes Zhongshan nobility because it was viewed as the king of all animals. With a strong body and courageous spirit, it is only natural that the tiger was chosen by the gods to be their representative on earth. As a creature capable of devouring humans, it is both feared and revered by people.</small>
Les halles actuelles de Lusignan, construites en 1853 à l'emplacement des halles médiévales, occupent un vaste espace rectangulaire de 33 mètres sur 16 mètres.

<small>A ceremonial vessel granted by the King of Zhou himself as a token of recognition to a noble. The King of Zhou would bless foals that were ready to enter the royal herds during the ancient foal-catching rite, to thank and answer to the horse spirits that they worshipped. This ceremony held so much significance that nobles could be awarded special recognitions based on their performance.</small>

<small>The basin was used for washing hands during ceremonies. It was a high-end item from the small state of Zhongshan and is rarely used now due to the complexity of the ceremonies. Zhongshan was made up of mainly Baidi people, who were one of the foreign races most influenced by the culture of the Central Pains. After several generations of great effort, the state officially received titles from the King of Zhou, an action opposed by his Ji clan vassals.</small>

The Taotie, an ancient mythological creature that represents greed and gluttony, was a common motif on weapons and vessels during the Shang dynasty.

Though it can be used like a dagger, it can also be modified to be a hidden blade. Its appearance in large quantities around the Shangjun signifies the presence of Yan activity, which does not bode well for law and order in the area. Jing Ke and Gao Jianli failed in their assassination attempts on the Qin emperor, but it is said there are still like-minded comrades of theirs in Yan. According to some Qin soldiers, a familiar figure has appeared in the Shangjun, and it appears that he is a former dog butcher from Yan.</small>

Months ago, The Brotherhood received worrying reports about a group of former Assassins gone rogue, deep into the jungles of the ancient kingdom of Cambodia. Very worrying rumors are circulating: a powerful artifact is in their possession and the Templars are actively looking for it. They seem to instill terror into the local populations. Not to mention the fact that this group is giving the Brotherhood a very bad reputation...

A group of less experienced Assassins was sent to investigate but they have gone silent and the Brotherhood is not optimistic about their fate. This is why they has tasked you, the four most loyal and experienced Assassins currently in Italy, with the delicate mission to find the team that was sent before you, recover any artifacts they may possess, seek the rogue Assassins and deal with their leader in the most discreet fashion.

;Memory Intro
Stone Circle Taweret.jpg
Your first contact with the region was as rough as you had anticipated. Harrowing weeks on a merchant ship, total estrangement in a land where almost nothing reminds you of Italy, the heat and humidity... Fortunately, some of you are well traveled. After weeks of sailing on the Mother of all Rivers, the Tônlé Mékôngk, as it is called by the people you met, you are starting to appreciate the wonders of the Khmer Empire. Traces of its glorious past are popping up at surprising turns of the river, with the majestic temples, grandiose vegetation and incredible life forms.

In a small settlement in the heart of the jungle, you are set to meet Shao Jun, the Assassin who will accompany you on your journey. As you come close to the meeting point, you see that villagers have gathered around a sick bed. Shao Jun lies there, livid.

You understand that she has been poisoned and that she needs an antidote as soon as possible in order to survive. The villagers point out to the area where the village keeps a small stash of locally made antidotes.

It seems you will have a first taste of what lies ahead as you spot a group of strangely clad soldiers guarding the antidote stash.

She reveals that she was poisoned by a very intriguing figure she believes might have something to do with that Colubra you’re looking for. You need to find what happened to the previous Assassin team...

You managed to find tracks of Mae Wa that lead to a small building next to a temple in ruins.
</gallery>
 
</div>
Nearby, a group of soldiers have a lively conversation but you cannot make out the words. Suddenly, they all freeze and seem to enter some kind of trance.
 
One of the female soldiers is trying to open a locked grate. The hissing sounds now seem to be surrounding you and you begin to feel uneasy as if it was drawing you to that grate.
 
You cannot see what is behind the grid from where you are. You need to get closer and investigate.
;Objectives
Investigate the camp. [!] After reaching the Objective, take the large card A#27 and follow the steps on the [Keys] side
;Debrief
That was the largest and most frightening animal you have ever met. Was that monstrosity even an animal?
 
In the lair of the snake you found a broken blade, which seems to be a peculiar design of a Hidden blade from the Brotherhood.
 
It is clear those soldiers have a strange serpent cult and they are definitely connected to the rebel Assassins.
 
During your investigation, you overheard the soldiers talking about going back to their boats. That is a lead you should follow.
 
====The Mission====
;Full sync conditions
*Attack 1+ Crocodile and Eliminate it.
;Intro
As the female warriors mentioned their boats, you are now trying to find where they could have needed them.
 
You gather from villagers that there is a ford, a few hours walk from here, where travelers sometimes come from.
 
After a while, the sounds of the forest grow more intense as the rumble of a mighty river can be heard in the distance.
 
You finally reach the riverbanks, just in time to spot a shining blade on the other side. It is time for some swimming!
;Objectives
Find clues from the Furies.
;Debrief
This side of the river feels different. The animals are quieter, the forest is much darker and the air feels oppressive. Following some tracks, you found the entrance of underground river tunnels. There
are mostly animals and plants you have never seen before, some of them are even quite repulsive.
 
Finally, you reach an underground pond, where a strange blue light seems to glow from the water itself. There, four small boats are waiting for their owners...
 
====Fear and Loathing in the Valley====
;Full sync conditions
*No Assassins were Eliminated.
;Intro
Despite your best efforts, the warriors you spotted leaving the ford are nowhere to be found. As dusk is upon you, you are about to set camp when you find a very dense wall of trees. Your keen eyes are not
fooled by the hastily arranged thicket and as you split the branches, you reveal a passage to a clearing. Darkness engulfs you as you spot unknown animal eyes spying on you.
 
The clearing meanders through rolling hills where you finally spot remains of a campfire. You are on your guards and move ahead to investigate what seem to be a freshly abandoned camp.
;Objectives
Search the camp to find traces of the Furies. [!] After you have Eliminated all Enemies on the Objective [keys] AND all the Assassins gathered on the [keys] square, take large card A#25 and play it.
;Debrief
You obviously face a much more dangerous threat than you imagined. You almost drowned there!
 
Those Furies were unsettling. They seemed to be possessed by some strange power. And the water felt almost like it had its own will, as if it was corrupted to the point that it would try to drown you on purpose.
 
====Hold the Fort!====
;Full sync conditions
*During each Enemy Reinforcement Step, you must never be short of Guard miniatures.
 
;Intro
Even though the Furies almost got you all killed, they made a big mistake as they revealed the location of their real encampment. Once they realize you are targeting their base, the Furies come to you at full force! You need to regroup and find a strong position to defend while you prepare your team for what is to come.
 
Fortunately, you spotted an easily defensible position within the camp.
 
The Furies are closing in on you, it's time to defend the Brotherhood!
;Objectives
Block the Enemy Entrances A, B and C in the same turn. Shao Jun may exceptionally complete 1+ of these Objectives. Then remove these 3 Entrances from the Map. If you fail to block all 3 entrances in the same turn, Memory fails.
AND
Synchronize at the top of the Naga to make the Secret Passage appear and use it to leave the Map.
;Debrief
Well done Assassins! You managed to delay the Furies enough for you to maybe reach their base and find out who the mysterious Colubra is.
 
From what you gathered about Colubra, the rebel Assassins must be in a stronghold further into the jungle. This does not fit with the information you’re been given by the Brotherhood.
 
Obviously, someone wants to muddy the water. You should be on your guard, as something is amiss in this mission.
 
====Another World====
;Full sync conditions
*Secret
;Intro
You raced to what you though would be a fortress, where Colubra should be.
 
But now you are among simple people, villagers peacefully assembled and busy with their daily tasks. They look at you with fear in their eyes. And then you realize, there are almost only women and girls here. This cannot be the rebel Assassin holdout you've been told about.
 
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a group of female warriors encircles you. It seems the villagers are not so peaceful...
;Objectives
Search the Furies camp. [!] After the first Assassin reaching the [keys] Objective, take large card A#33 and play it.
;Debrief
Colubra is not just a rebel Assassin. She holds a terrible power! Is she really this tall? It’s hard to believe...
 
You have heard of that kind of power before, but to experience it firsthand is incredible.
 
You remember the disturbing events you have witnessed years ago in Italy and can’t help but think the Brotherhood would not ignore about the supernatural powers wielded by Colubra.
 
And it seems that the giant snake and Colubra have more in common that meets the eye...
 
====Snakes Get Madder====
;Full sync conditions
2 of the Assassins (other than Shao Jun) must have left the Map by the end of the 6th game turn.
 
;Intro
Colubra has now retreated, probably to her real hideout, further into the forest. As you move deeper in, you find there are almost no more villages. The darkness is growing. The lifeforms are weirdly corrupted and even the plants take strange shapes.
 
Every sound makes you shiver or jump, as if they were distorted by the corrupted air. And now you have just spotted those aggressive snakes that resemble the giant one you fought a while ago...
;Objectives
Learn how to flush out and capture Hydras. [!] After completing the Objective, take 1 Hydra token from the Danger token pile and place it in your plastic bag.
 
You should also Synchronize at the top of the Naga to locate other potential Hydras to capture. ''Reminders: any Hydra revealed by an Assassin who moved to its space is automatically captured and placed in your plastic bag. Shao Jun cannot capture Hydras.''
;Debrief
Those hydras were not natural. Something is transforming the environment.
 
It does not take you long to understand that this rebel Assassin has taken control of a very powerful Apple of Eden. You have never heard of an Artefact capable of changing the environment that way, but you will need to make further research.
 
Your mission is starting to make more sense, but you cannot help wonder why the Brotherhood didn’t mention the Apple...
 
====Into the Dark====
;Full sync conditions
No Assassin has lost [health].
;Intro
You are getting closer to Colubra’s hideout. But here the land seems devastated, as if a plague has taken possession of it. The animals are overly aggressive. When you look at the plants, you can almost feel them breathe.
 
This corruption is unbearable. You can see how this is a serious threat to the world, not only to the Brotherhood. You must cleanse this place before it is too late.
;Objectives
OBJECTIVE OF THIS MEMORY
Flood the source of corruption. [!] Attention: The flood will take place at the end of the turn in which you complete the Objective, then reveal the card [keys].
OPTIONAL OBJECTIVE
If you Synchronize before completing the Objective, you may be able to scout the surroundings and avoid getting overwhelmed.
;Debrief
Well done, the corruption of the artefact has been wiped from this place, although you can’t help but wonder how deep it runs and if the place will ever be as before.
 
You will need to find a more permanent way to restore the order of things.
 
You gathered some strange tales from the rare people in the area. Ones of fierce battles between a giant warrior and a giant snake. Could this be Colubra and Sesha? It looks like they were fighting together though....
 
====The End (BOV)====
;Full sync conditions
Reveal the 6 Danger tokens placed on the Map when it was set up.
;Intro
You are now in sight of the enemy’s hideout. The air is heavy, the sound of the running water is overwhelming. Even though you cannot see the enemies, you can feel their presence. The glints of the rare sun rays that reach the ground reflect on their weapons, blinding you on purpose.
 
She’s there, you can feel her corrupted presence. It is as if her aura is making everything more crisp, bigger than life. Even the Stalkers’ shadows seem to disappear!
 
As you come near her presence, you can sense the weight she carries, the pain she feels and the sheer power and life force she imposes on everything around her.
;Objectives
Reach the temple on the other side of the chasm using a grappling hook, then perform your first ritual on the Objective. [!]After completing the Objective:
#Permanently discard ([X] ) 1 Hydra token from your plastic bag.
#Remove the reminder token.
#Ignore this Memory's special rule from now on.
;Debrief
Colubra, the rebel Assassin, was not fighting along Sesha, unlike you expected. The Apple she carries is unlike anything you have seen. It changes not only the way people act around her, but it also changes the physical world, to the point of changing her own size to that of a giant!
 
And it doesn’t seem to stop there, if you would believe the accounts of whole regions devastated by the power of that artifact.
 
It seems that the ritual involving the hydras, whatever it does, prevents Colubra from using some of her powers.
 
====The Fall of Man====
;Full sync conditions
Each Assassin has kept more than half of their [health].
;Intro
The Apple must be destroyed at all costs. If ever it was to fall in more organized hands, it could be the end of the world.
 
You have now reached the innermost part of Colubra’s sanctuary and you can tell how the Apple has modeled the environment to Colubra’s rage and despair. You feel like a complete stranger in this place, even more than before. It’s like nothing was real, every little thing is altered and scary.
 
You see Colubra in the distance and you can hear the hisses of snakes all around. It’s almost unbearable.
;Objectives
Reach the Objective to destroy the artifact. [!] After reaching the Objective: Reveal the [keys] large card.
;Debrief
Isabel, the former Assassin who was known as Colubra, is no more. You have accomplished your mission, albeit with a bitter ending.
 
Even though you didn’t retrieve the Apple, it felt the right thing to do to wipe this thing of the surface of the Earth.
 
You come to realize Isabel only ever fought for the people around her, those for whom no one would fight. In the end, she made the ultimate sacrifice, like a true Assassin. You will remember her. Now, before you leave, it is time to get to know those people better and help them.

====Main and OG expansions====
<tabber>
|-|Hidden Blade=
Ever since Darius, a Proto-Assassin, eliminated the Persian king Xerxes,
the hidden blade has become the signature weapon of the Brotherhood of Assassins.
 
It is usually hidden using an armband and can be deployed in a flash, revealing a formidably sharp point. Thanks to modifications made by Altaïr, you no longer need to cut off a finger to use it to its best advantage. Some Assassins, however, continue to mutilate themselves out of tradition and devotion to the Brotherhood.
 
|-|Cesare Borgia's Pistol=
Made under duress by Leonardo da Vinci for the Baron de Valois, this pistol of rare precision includes several innovations never seen on weapons of this era. It can be immediately identified thanks to its golden metal spinning wheel.
 
|-|Story: The Doge=
In Venice, the Doge is the first magistrate of the republics of Venice and Genoa. He is elected for life. From the ''Palazzo Ducale'', he leads the armies, presides over the Senate, can declare war and sign peace. He is responsible for the Council of Ten, an assembly made up of the lords of the most powerful Venetian families.
 
The current Doge, elected in 1501, is Leonardo Loredan. He is a cultured merchant and a fine politician.
 
|-|Salaì=
Gian Giacomo Caprotti da Oreno, born in 1480, is the most famous of Leonardo da Vinci's apprentices. He maintains an ambiguous relationship with the ''Maestro'', made of a deep friendship, but also of some mischief due to the young apprentice's passion for gambling.
 
A few years ago, this passion almost cost the Assassins dearly when Salaì failed to keep track of his mission: Protect Leonardo. Fortunately his courage, his insight and some decisive help from Ezio allowed the Assassins to find the ''Maestro'' safe and sound.
 
Salaì would do just about anything for Leonardo da Vinci, and the feeling is probably mutual.
 
|-|Leonardo da Vinci=
Leonardo da Vinci, aged 57 in 1509, is one of those rare people who are gifted in all they choose to do. His first meeting with Ezio was more than thirty years ago and Ezio still carries the hidden blade that the genius repaired and upgraded for him.
 
As a staunch ally, Leonardo enabled the Assassins to technologically surpass their Templar enemies thanks to numerous inventions, including the flying machine.
 
The ''Maestro'', as we sometimes call him, has the habit of appearing without warning, whether in Rome, Florence or where he is now, Venice.
</tabber>
 
<tabber>
|-|Story: Niccolò di Pitigliano (a.k.a. Niccolò di Orsini)=
Niccolò Orsini di Pitigliano (1442 - 1510) was a Leader of Italian mercenaries. He was the Captain-General of the Venetians during the war against the Cambrai league.
 
|-|Niccolò Machiavelli=
Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli, born in 1469, is a Florentine with many talents. Philosopher, politician and member of the Brotherhood of Assassins since he was 19, Niccolò is one of those who allowed Ezio to join the Brotherhood. He is a powerful enemy of the Borgias and has helped Ezio dismantle one of their bases in Rome. He faithfully supports Ezio in all circumstances, despite the apparent discord between the two men. It was probably at his request that Niccolò temporarily left his native Florence to lend a hand once again to the Assassins in Rome.
 
His political visions will have to wait a few more years before being written down on paper in his famous book: The Prince.
 
|-|Bocca di Leone=
The ''Bocca di Leone'' ("Lion's Mouth") were boxes made for denunciation. They often bore the shape of a human or animal mouth. Some were dedicated to various types of accusations: Concealment of income, favors, misdemeanors linked to public health, etc.
 
Denunciations could not be completely anonymous (except in case of emergency) and were processed according to a sophisticated investigation system. The lion sometimes appeared on the boxes as a reference to the Lion of Venice, emblem of the Republic.
 
|-|Pieces of Eden=
The Assassins know the secrets of a civilization that existed long before humanity. lts members were known under the names Isus, Precursors or First Civilization. Some elements of their technology have endured, such as the Pieces of Eden. As rare as they are powerful, they have been used repeatedly to influence the course of humankind's history.
 
The Assassins are trying by all means to prevent Templars from finding and using the fragments.
</tabber>
 
<tabber>
|-|Staves of Eden=
Among the Pieces of Eden, the Staves were created to take control of the body and mind of humans. Used properly, they are an extremely powerful instrument of control, which can be used for good or evil.
 
Doubt remains as to whether their extraordinary powers, such as levitation or invisibility, are real or are simply illusions.
 
|-|The Lion of Venice=
The famous Lion of Venice is none other than a representation of Saint Mark, decorated with wings inspired by the Bible. When its fore paws are crossed, one rests on the ground and the other on the water, symbolizing the balance of Venetian powers between land and water. When depicted with a book, it symbolizes peace, whereas it is sometimes holding a sword during periods of armed conflict.
 
|-|Welcome to the Animus=
The Animus was originally a technological project of Abstergo Industries, a facade for the Order of the Templars. Thanks to a DNA fragment, it allows the person who is connected to explore and relive the memories of their ancestors - their Genetic Memories.
 
Improved over time, used by both Assassins and Templars, the latest versions of the Animus are no longer dependent on the user's DNA and allow anyone to explore the memories of a subject as long as they have their DNA.
 
The newest versions of the Animus, HR-8 and HR-8.5, developed under the supervision of Sophia Rikkin and Layla Hassan, are now portable and do away with the need to use a DNA sample. The Memory only needs to be saved in order to share it with others.
 
However, it happens that the Animus experiences some failures when displaying the Memories. These are the glitches that Assassins sometimes fear.
 
It is rumored that some of these glitches may have been intentionally introduced into the Animus code by the Templars...
 
If so, only an Assassin from the present day can help us!
 
|-|Lucrezia Borgia=
Lucrezia Borgia, from a famous family of Templars, is cruel and merciless, just like her brother Cesare. Her use of excessive violence and her poisonings are almost legendary.
 
Bold and independent, she defied social conventions by entertaining many romantic relationships during her numerous marriages. The few people who have really known her have been able to recognize the fragility beneath her arrogance and violence, no doubt linked to her family's turbulent history.
 
During her two encounters with Ezio, they both tried to take advantage of the situation by playing the muddle game of seduction. She is still mad with rage at having let herself be taken in by her own game. She ruminates on a revenge that will certainly be terrible.
 
|-|Shaun Hastings=
Cynical, sarcastic and self-confident, Shaun works for the Brotherhood as a historian and analyst. His knowledge is a valuable source of information for modern Assassins who are looking for Pieces of Eden and other First Civilization resources from the memories of various historical figures. Shaun offers precious help to people who visualize their genetic memories through the Animus. He creates databases for the Assassins by analyzing people, locations and eras from historical experiences.
 
With Rebecca Crane, Desmond Miles and William Miles, Shaun was na essential member of the Assassins team who located an Apple of Eden and then the Great Temple in 2012, which changed the course of the conflict between Assassins and Templars.
 
After perilous missions to London and Madrid, Shaun seems to have disappeared. Rumors of his reappearance were true!
 
</tabber>
 
<tabber>
|-|Automatons**=
When Leonardo da Vinci was forced to create war machines for the Borgias in 1499, his creative genius took over and he invented a whole system of combat automatons - it was still theoretical at that time - that can be set up in advance so that they travel a certain distance before setting off the bomb they are harboring.
 
Overcome by remorse, he managed to hide his blueprints, but the Borgias were finally able to get their hands on them and turned them over to the Favero, who managed to finalize them. Fortunately, the Brotherhood also managed to create working prototypes thanks to Leonardo.
 
|-|The Crows**=
This small group of fierce Templars aims to fight the Assassins with their own methods.
 
Trained like true counter-Assassins, the Crows are specialists in disguise, infiltration and, of course, assassination. They all wear clothes and accessories that evoke their favorite animal, the crow. Moreover their former leader, Sirus Favero, was nicknamed ''il corvo'' (the raven). In an attempt to preserve their anonymity, they use the names of the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse.
 
The Assassins will have to face the four Crows led by Cesare Borgia including the formidable Matteo Favero, son of the historic leader of the Crows.
 
|-|Abstergo Industries***=
This megacorporation, created in 1937, is the result of a strategy of the Order of the Temple to sustainably transform the world and make it conform to the values and visions of the Templars.
 
Today, it is a sprawling conglomerate that extends its sinister wings over sectors as varied as medical, pharmaceutical or video game industries.
 
Abstergo is the inventor of the Animus.
</tabber>
 
====Apocalypse (WIP)====
These are taken from the WIP rulebook from the kickstarter, so they are VERY subject to change and shouldn't be used in ANY pages.
 
<tabber>
|-|Shao Jun=
Shao Jun (born in 1505) is a famous Assassin of the Chinese Brotherhood of Assassins.
 
A former concubine of the Zhengde Emperor, she was rescued by the Assassins after the emperor’s death and devoted her life to the Brotherhood as a result.
 
During the interregnum following the Zhengde Emperor’s death, Zhang Yong—the leader of the Eight Tigers, a Templar faction—ordered a purge of all those who opposed him, which included the Assassins. Shao Jun and her Mentor, Zhu Jiuyuan, fled west to seek out the retired Mentor of the Italian Brotherhood, Ezio Auditore da Firenze. After helping Ezio fight off a Templar attack in his villa in Tuscany, he gave her a Precursor box to help her rebuild the Chinese Brotherhood.<br>When she heard of the troubles caused by the rogue Assassins in the Khmer Empire, she agreed to meet the four Assassins dispatched there and help them.
 
|-|King Cobra=
Measuring up to 12 feet, it is one of the most dangerous animals one can encounter in the region.
 
It will bite and inject a potent venom that can kill an adult human in thirty minutes if no antidote is taken. Amazingly, even the very young ones can bite as dangerously as adults. It is not uncommon for expert handlers to extract their venom and use it to poison weapons.
 
|-|Mongoose=
Quick as lightning, the mongoose is the forever enemy of the cobra snake. Thanks to their incredible reflexes, they can face the venomous snakes and exploit any weakness, striking at the right time in the right spot.
 
The mongooses found in this region have developed a resistance to the snake’s venom that allows them to continue fighting, even after a bite.
 
They are greatly admired and revered by the inhabitants of the region, who sometimes tame and train them to help against the snakes.
