The Port of Sakai was a port in western Sakai in Izumi Settsu, Japan.
History[edit | edit source]
By the 15th century, the port served as a cargo terminal of the Inland Sea as the city was visited by frequent seafarers. Over time, the port provided the city a new, thriving trade route, when compared to an older trade route, which went through the contentious port of Hakata in northern Kyushu.[1]
In 1560, the Portuguese Templar Nuno Caro arrived at the port and met with a local merchant. Discussing their usual business, Caro also asked the merchant for information on any other merchants in the area as he elaborated over his fascination of the country and possible business endeavours. Surprised, the merchant agreed to help him and asked Caro to follow him.[2]
In 1582, the Kakushiba ikki members Fujibayashi Naoe and Yasuke ventured towards the port to aid their newfound ally Rufino in his task to stop a group of hired killers from attacking local influential people. At the port, they caught sight of a ship in Sakay's bay and swam towards it. Onboard, they destroyed all of the killers' intel while Rufino was attacked by one of the killers and his men. Together, Naoe and Yasuke managed to eliminate them and save Rufino.[3]
From the killer's personal effects, Naoe, Yasuke, and Rufino recovered a scroll containing orders from "the Architect" and discovered that several contracts had already been sent out. As the document was marked with a red Templar cross, which Yasuke was all too familiar with, he and Naoe vowed to stop the Templars' activities and save the innocent people they targeted.[3]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
In the memory "The Kabukimono", while hunting down the kabukimono in Izumi Settsu, the player is given a choice of assassinating the Ghost General either at Sakai's port or at the Money Changer District.[4]
