The Aerie in 2016

The Aerie is an Abstergo Industries complex directed by Isaiah, which housed the Lineage Discovery and Acquisition Division. The facility was composed of five buildings linked to each other and surrounded by a large park.

In 2016, after the Templars captured a team of teenagers using a stolen Animus to find the Trident of Eden, they were brought to the Aerie. There, Isaiah and Dr. Victoria Bibeau tried to learn more about the group's discoveries.

History

In February 2014, Templar scientist Sofia Rikkin and Abstergo employee Layla Hassan exchanged emails regarding a "robotic arm" Animus prototype for the Aerie facility in North America, designed to offer users greater freedom of movement. Layla reviewed the Animus designs and suggested improvements, stating that Sofia was "looking at it the wrong way."

Sofia was initially uncertain about the idea of suspending the Subject in midair, but she forwarded the concept to Gabriel King, the chief engineer at the Abstergo facility in Madrid. Gabriel, who was initially puzzled, showed a change in his expression, indicating he saw the potential of the idea. After some time without updates, Layla inquired on January 2, 2015, about the progress of the project.

By August 2016, with Sofia's help, the Aerie housed a portable version of the Animus. However, Layla Hassan was both angered and confused, demanding an explanation from Sofia, as she had not only been left uncredited but also felt used. Later that same month, Sofia ended all contact with her and gently asked her to not contact her again for the near future.

Later that same year, a Templar a strike team captured Sean Molloy, Natalya Aliyev, Grace and David Collins and brought them over the Aerie facility. There, Isaiah and Dr. Victoria Bibeau persuaded them to help them find the lost Trident of Eden and help them understand their mysterious connection to the Ascendance Event, which was of great interest to the Templars.
