Knowledge (Jubair al Hakim)

Knowledge was a virtual representation of one of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description

Altaïr visited the city's Assassin Bureau, and shared the information he had gathered on Jubair with the Rafiq.

Dialogue

Altaïr entered the Bureau and was greeted by its Rafiq.

• Rafiq: It's the hero of Damascus! Come in, stay a while! Tell me all about your adventures.
• Altaïr: I'm afraid I don't have the time.
• Rafiq: I see, too important for me now.
• Altaïr: It's not that.
• Rafiq: No, no, of course not. How may I serve you then?
• Altaïr: Al Mualim has asked I take the life of the one they call Jubair.
• Rafiq: Ah, Salāḥ ad-Dīn's chief scholar. Strange choice of target in my opinion. But who are we to question the Master's work. I'm sure he has his reasons.
• Altaïr: Then you're familiar with the man?
• Rafiq: He's been quite busy these past few days. Organizing the scholars and sending them into the streets to preach.
• Altaïr: What do they speak of?
• Rafiq: Light and fire, cleansing sins, apocalyptic nonsense if you ask me. All this talk of paths, and a New World.
• Altaïr: What about this New World?
• Rafiq: Couldn't say. I don't pay attention to the ramblings of madmen. Much too busy with real work.
• Altaïr: Very well. I'll walk among the people, see what I can learn. Where would you suggest I search?
• Rafiq: South of here you'll find an academy and a guard tower. They're both good places to search. There's also a hospital to the east you might want to visit.
• Altaïr: I'll begin at once.
• Rafiq: So eager! You've certainly changed, and for the better, I might add.

After gathering all the knowledge he could, Altaïr returned to the Bureau.

• Rafiq: What news, Altaïr?
• Altaïr: I've learned much about my enemy.
• Rafiq: Share what you know then.
• Altaïr: Jubair has become obsessed with purging the city of its knowledge.
• Rafiq: A most terrible crime! Now I see why Al Mualim wants you to remove him.
• Altaïr: He's using the city scholars to assist him. They go out into the streets, harassing the people and collecting all their written works. I fear he intends to destroy them all.
• Rafiq: He must be stopped!
• Altaïr: That's why I'm here. He's to hold a meeting soon, at the Madrasah Al-Kallāsah. It's where I'll go. It's where I'll take his life.

Rafiq placed a feather on the counter, and Altaïr took it.

• Rafiq: I'll leave you alone to prepare. Bring glory to the Brotherhood.

Outcome

Altaïr shared his knowledge on Jubair al Hakim with the Rafiq, and was given leave to assassinate the target.
