Also note that it can be controversial to refer to deities who still have a lot of believers presently as mythology, I had to remove the clause about Durga's "words of harmony" b/c the phrasing is wrong but I don't have time to check the book right now to correct it. |

Hinduism is a religion native to India and one of the oldest religions in the world.[1]
In the present day, Hindu deities are still revered today, such as the goddesses Kali[2] and Durga.[3]
History
In the Isu Era, Durga happened to transfer some of her consciousness into the Piece of Eden, the Koh-i-Noor. In 1839, Durga reappeared and took control of Pyara Kaur, who activated the jewel in front of both her lover and Indian Assassin Arbaaz Mir and the British Templar Francis Cotton while they fought each other. Cotton was terrified by her appearance and fired his gun at the goddess, with one of his shots apparently destroying the jewel. The connection was severed and an energy blast occurred, which led to Cotton's death.[3]
In 1870, while living with her husband and fellow Assassin Henry Green in India, Master Assassin Evie Frye trained with fellow Assassins in India and learned about their culture and religion. She especially became fascinated with the Hindu goddess Kali and even gifted a statue of Kali to her brother Jacob Frye upon his visit to India.[2]
