Assen Creed Mirage
In the heart of the capital of Baghdad, in the middle of the ninth century AD, around the year 860 AD, the Abbasid state was ruling a vast world, and the Caliph sat on a throne around which the scales of power shook, between ministers, leaders, and governors, each of whom had his own ambitions and secrets. Baghdad at that time was the center of political decision-making, where state affairs were managed in palaces, conflicts were hatched in secret, and fate was sometimes made with a word... and sometimes with a knife in the shadows. In this turbulent climate, groups have emerged that operate outside the authority of armies and bureaucrats, believing that influence is not met with crowds, but rather with precision and secrecy. Among those groups, the Assassins were known, who emerged later in the eleventh century AD, and their name was linked to Hassan al-Sabah, the founder of their organization and its most prominent leaders. They did not rule cities, nor did they raise flags, but they influenced politics from its heart, and brought down influential men with one calculated blow, when the armies were unable to decide.
