History[edit | edit source]
Medieval period[edit | edit source]
Cambridge was originally part of the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Mercia under the name "Grantebridge". In the early 870s, the Great Summer Army led by jarls Guthrum and Soma captured the city. Under Soma's rule, Grantebridge greatly developed from a small town into a prosperous and power trading city.[1] In 873, Saxon troops led by Order of the Ancients member Wigmund retook it from the Vikings, having been led to a secret tunnel entrance beneath the longhouse[1] by a traitorous Galinn, one of Soma's most trusted advisors.[2]
Modern times[edit | edit source]
In 2019, the Assassin My'shell Lemair travelled to Cambridge along with Aliyah Kahn to rescue Gavin Banks, who was held captive by the Templar Fahad Khan at the Isaac Newton Cambridge Museum. With the help of Shaun Hastings' AI program named after himself, they managed to free Gavin and assassinate Fahad.[3]
