The Hunt for Admiral Nadir.

I set out to investigate Sharqiyah Harbor for clues about Admiral Nadi (Al-A'eshma). After using Enkidu to survey the area, I assassinated several guards and a marksman. Though spotted while leaving, I engaged the remaining harbor guards in open combat, slaying them all to secure the location.

My next target, Al-A'eshma, is Admiral Nadir ibne Habib. The man is responsible for building warships for the Caliphate, who is believed to be down at the lower harbor. I arrived near the Sharqiyah Harbor to investigate and gather more information on his whereabouts.

Before moving in, I called Enkidu to survey the layout from above. However, a marksman was stationed nearby, forcing Enkidu to flee. Knowing I needed full aerial vision, eliminating that marksman became my top priority.

I made my way toward the harbor's edge. Passing a bridge, I noticed several guards posted nearby, but they didn't spot me as I moved past.

Having frequented this area before, I knew an alternative entry route. I snuck up to the guard watching over the entry hole and eliminated him quietly.

Knowing the layout of the guards from my previous visits, I moved through the perimeter with high precision. I used a throwing knife to quickly drop a patrolling guard, then immediately executed a double chain assassination on two others standing nearby.

With those targets down, I scaled up to the rooftop, eliminated another guard stationed on the roof, and finally assassinated the marksman. With the threat cleared, Enkidu was free to scout the area once again.

After checking the surrounding area for further threats, I realized the information I was searching for wasn't actually inside the heavily guarded building, but situated outside in a different section of the harbor.

As I made my way toward the objective, a group of guards spotted me and gave chase. Rather than fleeing, I pulled them toward a nearby open area and turned to face them.

In the open brawl, I parried, struck, and splayed every last guard who pursued me. With the area finally cleared, I was free to search for the note and gather the information I needed on Admiral Nadir.

Until next time, happy gaming.
