"Finish what you started, until your ancestor has nothing left to show you. That is a synch nexus."

―Subject 16 to Desmond

Synch Nexus is the moment achieved when an Animus Subject concludes reliving the genetic memories of an ancestor with nothing left to see or experience.

Known Occurence

Unnamed man: "Shit! He's gone into shock!"

William M.: "Put him back in the machine, it's the only way to fix this."

Unnamed man: "But the Animus is what did this to him!"

William M.: "Am I the expert or not? Do it!"

—William Miles and and unnamed man regarding Desmond.

In the year 2012, after the events following the retrieval of the apple, Desmond Miles, under the influence of Juno, fell into a coma after stabbing his fellow Assassin, Lucy Stillman. Upon being plugged into the Animus and being sent to the Black Room by William Miles, Desmond met the visual representation of Subject 16. Subject 16 eventually told Desmond that the only way to escape from the Animus was to achieve a "synch nexus", the complete conclusion of his ancestor's memories.

Desmond then began to relive the later memories of his ancestor Ezio Auditore da Firenze, as he searched for the Masyaf Keys that would allow him to relive key moments in Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's life.

Completing the memories of Ezio and Altaïr, Desmond achieved a synch nexus and was pulled into the Nexus of Time. Once there, Jupiter elaborated on the location of the Grand Temple and the First Disaster. He also charged Desmond with going to the Grand Temple.

After this, Desmond was sent back to the Black Room. The Animus had scheduled Desmond and Subject 16 for deletion, however, at the last moment, 16 pushed Desmond out of harms way. Waking up from his coma in front of Rebecca, Shaun, and his father, William Miles, Desmond told them that he knew where to go.
