The Glastonbury Festival is a five-day festival of contemporary performing arts held in most summers[1] in the Vale of Avalon, Somerset, England.[2] The Assassin Siegmund Visser once played at the venue.[3]
History[edit | edit source]
Thanks to a prophecy given by Amelia Fairchild, leader of the Descendants of the Round Table during the Victorian era,[4] the Crew and their betrayer Anthony realized that the festival's pyramid stage was the next step in finding the Sword of Eden Excalibur's lost hiding place.[3] After dealing with the traffic towards Glastonbury, the Crew arrived at the festival late into the evening. They made their way through the crowds of revellers while avoiding a few Abstergo Industries security patrols looking for both them and Anthony. From the pyramid stage, they noticed a circle of light abruptly appear and disappear less than a mile away. Following where the lights had been, the group reached the stone ring also mentioned by Amelia, piecing together from onlookers' testimonies that the sword's pommel had resonated with the stones, showing Anthony the way forward towards a temple submerged under the Avalon Marshes. Rushing towards the location, they chased Anthony into the chamber containing Excalibur, eventually stopping him and retrieving the sword themselves.[2]
