| This article is about the location. You may be looking for the battle at Solomon's Temple. |
Solomon's Temple, or Holy of Holies, was the biblical First Temple of the Jews, originally constructed by King Solomon on Mount Moriah in Jerusalem. It was designed to hold the Ark of the Covenant, and a Piece of Eden.
Third Crusades
The Assassins Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, Malik A-Sayf and Kadar A-Sayf were sent by Al Mualim to retrieve and secure the Templar treasure located here in 1191. Upon arrival, Altaïr violated the first tenet of the Creed by murdering an innocent, elderly man, whom Altaïr believed could have alerted the guards.[1]
The Assassins found Robert de Sable and his men in the temple's primary chamber, about to reach the Piece of Eden. Altaïr imprudently attacked de Sable, and broke the second Creed tenet by compromising the Brotherhood. Sable deflected the charge and delivered a cryptic warning to the brash Assassin. He then hurled Altaïr through a support beam, cutting him off from the chamber and his companions.[1]
Altaïr believed that the mission had failed, and returned to Masyaf to report the events to Al Mualim, leaving Malik and Kadar for dead. Malik managed to retrieve and deliver the Piece of Eden to his master, though losing his left arm and his brother in the process.[1]
Altaïr's arrogant actions and violation of the three tenets of the Creed in Solomon's Temple led to his demotion to the rank of Novice.[1]
