The Head of Saint-Denis was an ancient relic, a head-shaped lantern encasing an Apple of Eden. While fueled by the Apple, the artefact emited an unnatural blue light and had the power to project terrifying illusions, but once the Apple was removed the Head became a regular lantern.
History
Stored into Saint-Denis Temple, the lantern was used in the 12th century by the Abbot Suger to create a powerful sword known as the Eagle of Suger.
In August 1794, Arno Dorian battled a group of tomb raiders sent by Napoleon Bonaparte in order to find the artefact in the First Civilization Temple hidden beneath the Basilica of Saint-Denis. The Assassin killed the raiders' leader, Philippe Rose, and used the power of the Apple contained within the lantern to repel the Raiders.
Following the ordeal, Arno contacted the members of the French Assassin Brotherhood, asking them to take the Apple to Al Mualim in Cairo, while Arno kept the Head of Saint-Denis itself as a memento.
