Editing Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (section)

====Routing the Templars====
In Limassol, Altaïr arrived at the new safe house to find Alexander accusing him of treachery. Altaïr, who had suspected Alexander’s loyalty, asked if he had received a package from the Templars. Alexander confirmed he had received a package containing the head of someone he claimed was Barnabas. Altaïr identified the head as belonging to a different man, realizing that the real Barnabas had been replaced by a Templar spy. Alexander revealed that the Templars had used similar tactics in Limassol, turning Resistance members with propaganda.

Altaïr took action against the Templars, noticing one of their contacts at the harbor consorting with pirates and Crusaders. He followed the contact, posing as a messenger for Bouchart, to gather information on the Grand Master’s location. The contact directed Altaïr to the Cathedral after admitting he could not answer his question. Altaïr intercepted a Templar sergeant at the Cathedral, who directed him to a merchant named Demetris.

Altaïr stealthily entered Demetris’ home from the rooftop, but before he could gather more information, Demetris was killed by a throwing knife from above. Altaïr attempted to pursue the Templar agent but lost him. Returning to the safe house, Altaïr found it abandoned and discovered a note from Alexander asking him to meet at the Limassol castle courtyard. He went to the courtyard and found Alexander's body. The Templar agent mocked him from a balcony, and an angry mob entered, accusing Altaïr of Alexander’s murder. Unable to pacify them through reason, Altaïr used the Apple to sway the mob, directing their anger towards Bouchart and the Templars. The mob dispersed to rally against the Templars.

The Templar agent, mocking Altaïr and threatening to steal the Apple, was suddenly killed from behind and thrown off the balcony. Maria then appeared, revealing that they were directly above the Templar Archive. As they prepared to enter, Templars attacked. Maria retreated inside the Archive while Altaïr fought off the attackers. After clearing the way, Altaïr entered the Archive, dispatching any remaining guards.
