Plot
- "He may have started with the finger, boy - but he'll never stop taking from you."
- ―The Target
Altaïr was ordered by Al Mualim to hunt down and assassinate a man in Acre. Once he arrived, he blended into the crowd, following a strongly-built man with a green cloak. Altaïr swung from ledge to ledge, and onto the rooftops in an effort to keep a closer eye on his target. However, his target soon noticed Altaïr's presence. The man kept his guard up, and proceeded to buy oranges, while Altaïr continued to wait on a rooftop for the right time to attack his target. Suddenly, the man startled Altaïr by appearing behind him on the rooftop. He then tried to insult Altaïr by referring to him as "one of Al Mualim's pups." They engaged in battle, but fast as Altaïr was, the man held his ground and managed to dodge any attack the Assassin made with his multiple weapons.
While fighting, the man does warn Altaïr about Al Mualim's intentions, claiming he would slowly take away Altaïr's freedom, and eventually kill him. Altaïr then found himself in the midst of a headlock, but soon caught an opening in the man's position, and elbowed his face. Altaïr backed away while the man recovered, and proceeded to perform an air assassination with his Hidden Blade. However, before he could do so, the man countered
his move and punched Altaïr back onto the ground. The man tackled Altaïr, and they were both soon on the ground. The man told Altaïr that Al Mualim did not care for his Assassins, tormenting him by telling him that his master, Al Mualim, could always father more, for the man thought that he could see Al Mualim's face in Altaïr's. Altaïr, angered and confused, made his final strike by headbutting the man and impaling his stomach with the Hidden Blade. The story ends as Altaïr slides his hand over the dead man's face, closing his eyes. Al Mualim later asked if Altaïr's target had said something unusual, but Altaïr simply responded that he had said "nothing of consequence."
