Editing Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (section)

====Siege of Masyaf====
Arriving in Masyaf, Altaïr was welcomed by Rauf, who informed him that Al Mualim was awaiting his report. At the fortress gates, he exchanged insults with Abbas before proceeding to the Mentor's study, where he confessed his failure to retrieve the Templar treasure. Soon after, Malik returned with the artifact, injured and furious, blaming Altaïr for Kadar's death. Before they could confront each other further, news arrived that Masyaf was under siege.

Altaïr joined other Assassins in defending the village, successfully buying time for the villagers to flee to the fortress. However, they were soon overwhelmed, and Altaïr decided to retreat rather than fight to the death. With Al Mualim creating a diversion, Altaïr, Rauf, and another Assassin performed a Leap of Faith from the citadel tower, sneaking behind enemy lines and using a felled log trap to crush the Templar forces, forcing them to retreat from Masyaf.

Following the attack, Altaïr's actions at Solomon's Temple were scrutinized once more. Having broken all three tenets of the Creed and endangered the Brotherhood, Altaïr was declared a traitor. Al Mualim publicly sentenced him by stabbing him in the stomach with his personal jambiya.
