House of Wisdom was a virtual representation of one of Basim Ibn Ishaq's genetic memories relived through the Animus.

Description

Basim went to the House of Wisdom to investigate Ahmad ibn Musa's disappearance.

Dialogue

Basim left the Abbasiyah bureau and made his way to the House of Wisdom. Along the way, he saw smoke coming from the library's direction.

  • Basim: Smoke from the House of Wisdom. What does it mean?

He ventured further into the building while civilians panicked.

Civilians scholars confronting Fazil about the book burnings

Fazil Fahim al-Kemsa addressed the crowd in front of him.

  • Fazil: People, calm yourselves! The fire was small and has been contained.
  • Civilian: Allah's wrath is upon us!
  • Fazil: Most of our books are safe. The danger has passed.
  • Basim: Old man! How did this fire start?
  • Fazil: Old man? Fazil Fahim is old. As old as the House of Wisdom, which he commands!
  • Basim: Forgive me, ustadhi (master). I spoke in haste. Can I help?
  • Fazil: No, the fire has been quenched by the Water Master's bucket brigades.

Fazil questioned by Basim about the fires
  • Basim: Who started these fires?
  • Fazil: Ruffians, I suppose. Enemies of the Caliph, to be exact.
  • Basim: What sort of books were they burning?
  • Fazil: It is too soon to tell.
  • Basim: Perhaps the Caretaker of Books would know.

  • Basim: I am searching for Ahmad ibn Musa.
  • Fazil: Ah yes, he has a workshop here, but I have not spoken to him lately.

  • Basim: Peace be upon you, elder. I shall go.

Basim left Fazim and found himself with two new tasks to investigate.

  • Basim: I still need to find Ahmad ibn Musa, but I should also speak to the Caretaker of Books in the library.

Outcome

Basim continued on his search for Ahmad ibn Musa, but also decided to investigate the book burnings.
