The Hunt was a virtual representation of one of Basim ibn Ishaq's genetic memories relived through the Animus.[1]
Description[edit | edit source]
Basim returned to the Sharqiyah bureau after spying on the meeting at the Officers' Club.
Memory Animus Feednack System[edit | edit source]
- Return to Fuladh
Dialogue[edit | edit source]
Basim returned to the bureau, reporting to Fuladh and Ali ibn Muhammad.
- Fuladh: Good, you are here.
Fuladh closed the book he was reading and put it on the counter.
- Fuladh: You have kicked many nests. Mercenaries are everywhere, like angry ants.
- Ali: It explains Beshi's absence. He's avoiding the mercenaries.
- Fuladh: I hope the trouble was all worth it.
- Basim: I have discovered two of the officers are working with the Order. And there is another, their leader.

- Fuladh: Three! That would explain the Order's reach in Sharqiyah.
- Basim: The first two go by the names Al-Rukh and Al-A'eshma. The third, they call Al-Mardikhwar.
- Ali: They hide behind pompous names like prideful children!
- Fuladh: Do not mistake the Order's vanities for childishness. They are the real power behind the Abbasids. Did you discover anything that would identify them?
(Discuss Al-Rukh)
- Basim: The one named Al-Rukh was called Jasoor by his companion. He is hiding from his past, and lives in fear because of it.
- Fuladh: Jasoor, yes. That must be the Arab General Jasoor ibn Basil.
- Ali: I know of him... a coward who stole credit for victories on the battlefield won by others.
- Fuladh: A past he has gone to great efforts to hide. Jasoor has a villa at Qasr Salih to the west. You could look for him there.
(Discuss Al-A'eshma)
- Basim: The one called Al-A'eshma, his real name is Nadir. He has command of ships, and is not timid like his companion. Arrogant, in fact.
- Fuladh: Nadir...
- Ali: That must be Admiral Nadir ibn Havid. A boastful fool, concerned more with his ships than his own men.
- Fuladh: Ah yes, the Admiral. Boastful, perhaps, but brilliant. He has created several new warships for the Caliph. The Order's reach has grown if they have recruited Nadir. You should look for him at the Lower Harbor, to the north.
(Discuss Al-Mardikhwar)
- Basim: As for their leader, Al-Mardikhwar, I learned only that he is away from Sharqiyah, and expected to return soon.
- Fuladh: This one I do not know. It is the first time I have heard the name.
- Ali: If he is their leader, he ordered the death of my men. He's the one you must find.
- Fuladh: Yes, and for other reasons besides. Our best hope of finding him is through the first two.
- Ali: Find this Al-Mardikhwar, Basim, as we agreed. I will wait for Beshi. I am grateful for your help freeing my men.
Ali handed Basim a Khidmah token.
- Ali: Take this token, with thanks.
Ali nodded to Fuladh before he took his leave.
- Basim: I will find Jasoor and Nadir, and unmask their leader.

Basim turned around and started to leave as well.
- Fuladh: They will be wary now, protected within their strongholds. You may have to lure them out. Tread carefully, Basim. These are dangerous men.
- Basim: So am I.
Fuladh nodded in compliance as Basim put his hood up and left the bureau.
Outcome[edit | edit source]
Pooling together their information, the Hidden Ones managed to uncover the identities of two Order members, leading to Fuladh tasking Basim with their elimination.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- ↑ A time jump occurs during "Taking Flight". Despite it being unclear how much time Basim takes to complete his training, several notes in Baghdad describe events that date to mid-862, with two documents being of importance: "Resignation of Abu 'Abdallah" is al-Mu'tazz renouncing his right to caliphal succession in favor of his elder brother al-Muntasir, which historian al-Tabari dated to 27 April 862 in Tarikh al-Tabari's 34th volume "Incipient Decline: The Caliphates of al-Wathiq, al-Mutawakkil, and al-Muntasir", while "Trouble at the Court" details al-Mu'tazz's cousin Al-Musta'in being appointed caliph following al-Muntasir's death that June. This, coupled with the fact that this memory and the succeeding ones must happen before 865, when al-Mut'azz and the Turkic Army should be shown besieging Baghdad to defeat al-Musta'in and his Tahirid forces, implies that they happen in 862.
