Iona Vault
The Iona Vault was an Isu vault located on the island of Iona in Scotland. The vault was located beneath the Iona Abbey in the meander of its undergrounds and was composed of a simple corridor and a door, which could only be opened by an individual with Isu ancestry touching it, revealing a circular chamber.[1]
History[edit | edit source]
In 1296, during the English invasion of Scotland, the Scottish Assassins made a forgery and sent the true Stone of Scone to be hidden in Iona,[2] to prevent it from falling into Templar hands. However, after James of Crannach betrayed the Assassins and forewarned the Templar Cornavii, he and his soldiers killed the men sent by William Wallace to Iona as they brought the artifact to the abbey.[1]
A team led by the Assassin Deorsa arrived in time and recovered the Stone, despite James' betrayal and Cornavii unleashing its power on them. The twins Fillian and Aileas and their ally, the druidess Moira, then hid the true Stone of Scone within the Iona Vault, securing its safety.[1]
