The novel was also distributed to EB Games store managers in 2007 to promote the game. The story served as a prelude to the first ''Assassin's Creed'' game, and introduced the game's two main protagonists.


==Story==
{{quote|I track these men so that I might know the truth.|[[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] explaining his life as an Assassin}}
The story of the novel commenced with Desmond Miles and his escape from the [[Abstergo Industries]] facility in the year 2012, but changed sides later on as Desmond interacted with the [[Animus]] and experienced a memory of Altaïr from the year 1191. Altaïr was tasked with performing multiple assassinations of [[Templars|Templar]] knights within the city of [[Acre]].
[[File:Assassin's_Creed_French_Comic_Concept_02.jpg|thumb|150px|Altair scales a nearby wall after assassinating a Templar knight.]]
Both sides of the narrators' stories were synched with each other and had same message portrayed in two different time contexts. Desmond introduced himself first in the beginning of the novel by explaining who he was and what had happened to him. He described himself as being a prisoner, and that he did not know what these men wanted or why they had abducted him. Desmond then later synchronized with Altaïr's memories and the latter explained himself as being a hunter, and that he hunted these men to learn who had lead them and what they had planned. This created a link between the two Assassins where both of them explained who they were and what they did. Towards the end of the story they both re-introduced themselves as being Assassins and that that was their life.
In Desmond's introduction he was seen moving across the outside of the complex and avoiding Abstergo security guards who had pursued him throughout the facility. He entered and silently traveled through the vents of the facility and was almost caught by one particular guard. The man was suspicious of noises heard in the vents but later dismissed it as nothing and continued patrolling his sector. Desmond was then seen crouched directly behind the guard in an opening in the vent as the guard responded to concerns from his colleague and stated that his sector was clear. Desmond then sneaked behind the board of Abstergo and entered a large room that contained the Animus. He stepped up to it and laid his hand on the device. The Animus glowed powerfully in response, and Desmond was then transported into his subconscious mind when he experienced the machine's recreation of Altaïr's assassination memory.
Desmond viewed Altaïr's memory in which he walked through the streets of Acre, and entered a narrow alleyway where he assassinated a Templar knight. After the guard was dispatched Altaïr scaled a nearby wall to avoid being detected. The next scene depicted multiple guards who eyed the city streets and were unware of Altaïr moving swiftly across rooftops in the background.
[[File:Page13.jpg|thumb|150px|Altaïr jumps upon a guard and slams his head into the ground.]]
He leapt across the side of a building and was spotted by a rooftop archer. Just as the archer cried out in alert, Altaïr stabbed and pulled him off the ledge. The archer fell to the ground below and attracted the attention of numerous other guards.
Altaïr responded instantly and jumped down onto the back of a guard, which killed him when Altaïr slammed the guard's head into the ground. The story then flashed back to the future where the board members discovered Desmond laying down in the Animus. Desmond sprung to his feet and escaped the Animus room being chased by Abstergo officials. The story then flashed back to the past where Altaïr was engaged in a battle with Templar guards and was fighting them back. Then the memory was desynchronized and lastly showed Altaïr retract his [[hidden blade]], with the guards laid dead at his feet, and Desmond cornered by the board members. He was poised and ready to fight.
==Dialogue==
*'''Desmond''':''' '''''My name is Desmond Miles...and I am a prisoner.''
*'''Radio Voice''':''' '''''Sector 8 -Check-''
*'''Radio Voice 2''':''' '''''...Clear...''
*'''Radio Voice''': ''...Sector 9??? Sector 9...Do you copy?''
*'''Guard''': ''Sector 9, Clear..''
A loud noise was heard in the vents, which alerted the guard, but became quiet.
*'''Guard''': ''Nothing...''
*'''Radio Voice''': ''Sector 9-13, Everything's alright?''
*'''Guard''': ''Yeah...It's all clear!''
*'''Radio Voice''': ''Roger that!''
*'''Guard''': ''Need maintenance to fix these damn vents!''
*'''Desmond''': ''I don't know what these men want from me...don't know why they abducted me.''
​Desmond opened the door to the room that contained the Animus.
*'''Desmond''': ''...why they brought me to this place.''
​The door closed loudly behind Desmond, who touched the Animus, and reacted as the Animus glowed powerfully in response to Desmond's touch. The Animus then transported Desmond's mind into its projection of his ancestor's memory.
*'''Altaïr''': ''My name is Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad''.
*'''Templar Knight''': ''Maudit rats...''
Altaïr silently stepped up behind the knight, and assassinated him.
*'''Altaïr''': ''I track these men so that I might know the truth. Know who leads them...''
*'''Archer''': ''Alerte!''
''​''Altaïr was seen by an archer.
*'''Altaïr''': ''...what he plans.''
*'''Archer''': AARRHH!

==Trivia==
*The maneuver Altaïr performed (where he stabbed and pulled down a rooftop guard off a ledge in Acre) was very similar to how, in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]],'' [[Ezio]] was able to pull guards down from high spots after he assassinated them.
*In the graphic novel Altaïr carried no weapons at all but the hidden blade.
*The outside of the [[Abstergo Laboratory]] could be seen in the graphic novel.
*The artwork and storyboard of the modern era, where Desmond narrated, was created by [[wikipedia:Thierry Doizon|Thierry Doizon]], and the artwork and storyboard of the Crusades<span style="line-height:21px;"> time period, where </span><span style="line-height:21px;">Altaïr narrated,</span> was created by [[David Levy]].
