Editing Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad (section)

===Changing the Order===
After returning from Cyprus, Altaïr began frequently consulting the Apple, which granted him vast knowledge about the world. In 1195, he and Maria married in Limassol, with Markos as a guest of honor, honoring the Cypriots who had offered the island as a base for the Assassins. They later returned to Masyaf, where their first son, Darim, was born. Two years later, after visiting Acre, the couple welcomed their second son, Sef.

Altaïr then traveled to various cities and regions across the Old World to promote the Assassin Order. While these journeys were largely successful, his attempt to spread the Creed to Constantinople in 1204 ended in failure when he found the city under siege by Crusaders amid civil unrest. Disheartened, he returned to Masyaf.

By using the Apple cautiously and with focus, Altaïr discovered a new form of metal that was lighter and stronger than any previously known and created armor from it. Fearing the potential misuse of such invulnerability, he destroyed the formula to keep it from falling into the wrong hands. Additionally, he used the Apple to redesign the Hidden Blade, incorporating a mechanism to launch small projectiles.

Unlike his former mentor, Altaïr permitted members of the Order to express love for their children. While Al Mualim believed that love would weaken them, Altaïr felt it would make them more willing to make sacrifices for the right cause.
