Legacy[edit | edit source]
In 2012, the Assassin Clay Kaczmarek collected details on Henry's life while Abstergo Industries held him captive at their Animus Project laboratory in Rome. He then hid the information within the Animus 1.28 in Glyph puzzles for his successor, Desmond Miles, to find.[3] Sometime in early September,[4] Desmond solved the puzzle set titled "Keep On Seeking, And You Will Find", in which Henry was excluded from a list of historic individuals who possessed a Shroud of Eden.[3] Later that year, he was also included in a mnemonic set in Abstergo's Project Legacy.[5]
