Prologue

In the year 1936, the world stood on the precipice of the Second Great War, as nations rallied their resources and strategized for the inevitable conflict. Beneath the surface of this global tension, an ancient and clandestine struggle continued to unfold—a shadow war that had been waged for countless generations. This battle pits the Assassins, champions of liberty and free will, against the Templars, who advocate for control, order, and the suppression of individual freedom.

Throughout history, these two factions have clashed in a relentless quest for dominance, each vying for influence over humanity's destiny. Yet, as the dust of their long-standing feud settles, a new threat rises to power in the heart of Europe, one that promises to reshape the continent's social and political landscape. This emerging force is embodied by the Nazi Party, a regime that has found its leader in Adolf Hitler, a man whose vision echoes the ambitions of the Templar order.

Under Hitler's iron-fisted rule, the dark principles of the Templars are infused into the fabric of a rapidly industrializing Germany. As old rivalries ignite and alliances shift, the world watches in apprehension, unaware that the convergence of these two wars—the ancient struggle between Assassins and Templars and the impending global conflict—will lead to profound and devastating consequences for millions. In this chaotic era, the fate of nations hangs precariously in the balance, as a new order emerges from the ashes of past and present conflicts.

In the shadowy skies of Nazi-occupied France, a lone assassin perched atop a dilapidated building, her silhouette contrasting against the dimming light of dusk. Clad in a modern grey assassin's hood, it billowed slightly in the cool breeze, concealing her fierce determination. Dual hidden blades, expertly crafted and smoothly glimmering under the faint glow of streetlamps, were poised at her wrists, ready for swift action.

As she scanned the cobblestone streets below, her mind churned with thoughts, heavy with the weight of her lineage. All I am to the master is a tool; one destined to dismantle the Templar, she mused, a blend of pride and resignation coursing through her. The echoes of her father's legacy reverberated within her, compelling her to action.

Suddenly, her eagle sense, an innate ability that connected her to the environment, alerted her to the approaching sound of rumbling engines. Her heart raced as she recognized the ominous shape of SS convoys moving down the narrow pathway below—these were no ordinary soldiers. The elite men, trained in a deadly amalgam of Templar ruthlessness and assassin stealth, were tasked with crushing any resistance.

Fortuitously, she had arrived ahead of their expected route, utilizing her strategic mind to set intricate traps along the way. Hidden snares intertwined with cleverly disguised tripwires lay in wait, meticulously arranged to impede their progress. This would be her moment—a chance to dismantle their numbers, extract vital information for her father, and alter the course of their mission.

As the sound of tires screeching against the cobblestones drew nearer, she took a deep breath. She let the familiar words of the assassin's mantra flow from her lips, a ritualistic reminder of her purpose, her mission, and the bloodline that ran through her veins. Ready to spring into action, she embraced the darkness around her, poised to strike as the convoys drew closer, unaware of the storm that awaited them.

"We work in the dark, to serve the light. We are assassins."

Anita: Der Roman ist gut geschrieben. Grammatikalisch nicht immer stimmig und häufig werden nicht passende Wörter verwendet. Der Schreibstil ist in Ordnung. Interessant genug, dass ich die meisten Teile wirklich gelesen habe, nicht nur überflogen.
