Maysaf

  • Objective: Find the Traitor

At the start of Memory Block Two, there will be a cutscene followed by you being stripped of all of your weapons. You will be given a target to investigate. This basically amounts to a tutorial level in which you will practice the techniques of investigation used in all of your later missions.

To begin, head down to the market at the bottom of the hill, toward the Eavesdropping waypoint on your minimap. If you are unsure of your target, use Eagle Vision to locate them. When you have located your target, sit on a nearby bench, lock on and press the head button to listen in. When you are finished, head toward the Pickpocket waypoint on your minimap.

To initiate the Pickpocket, lock on to your target and follow them in Low Profile mode. When you are close enough, "pick pocket" will appear as one of your action selections. Press and hold it while following your target to grab the goods. Make sure that your target does not stop walking while you are reaching for their purse, or they will notice you. Once you have your prize, move to the Interrogation waypoint on your minimap, near the middle of Maysaf village. Your target is the man giving a speech.

Once you locate your target, lock onto him to hear his speech. When it concludes, follow him to the shady area and then beat him senseless. After you land a few punches, he will beg you to stop and then he will confess. For future interrogations, you don't necessarily need to wait until you are in an alcove or under a tree to pummel your target, just be sure that the guards don't see you.

Return to Mualim for a cutscene and a new leg of your mission. You will be given some weapons and your first assassination assignment in the Poor District of Damascus. Head down to the bottom of the hill and out the front gate of Maysaf village. Jump on one of the horses here by walking up to it, and head toward the blinking Kingdom waypoint on your minimap. At the end of the trail, you will enter the Kingdom, essentially the open area between cities.

The Kingdom

  • Objective: Head to Damascus

Once you are in the Kingdom, your first task is to climb the first of many Reach High points in the game. It is the tower in front of you. Ride up to the tower, dismount your horse and climb up. When you reach the top, press the head button to synchronize. This will reveal some of the map, including hiding spots. Within cities, it will reveal the location of nearby Investigations and Side Quests. Perform a leap of faith off of the plank overhanging the side of the tower and land in the hay below. Grab your horse and head off toward Damascus. Be on the lookout for guards. Now that you are in hostile territory, you performing high profile actions or approaching guards too closely while not blended will cause them to attack. At this point, it is your option to activate all of the remaining Reach High points in the Kingdom as well as look for King Richard flags in the area. Otherwise, head toward the blinking Damascus waypoint on your minimap, avoiding (or killing) soldiers on your way.

Damascus

  • Objective: Investigate Tamir
