As his men locked the young prince into a cage, Ramirez addressed the inhabitants of the village, claiming that, with the capture of the prince, Sultan Muhammad XII of Granada would surrender, leading Spain to be united under the Templars' rule. Not a moment later, Aguilar de Nerha leapt upon the general from a nearby rooftop and assassinated him with his Hidden Blade, commencing the Spanish Assassins' attempted rescue of Prince Ahmed. Before joining the battle, Aguilar closed the fallen general's eyes, giving him his last rites.[1]
