Clearing the Path.

https://3speak.tv/watch?v=paarvez/8fa1583b I bribed the assistant of Fazil for information on the hidden passage and scouted the rooftop gardener with Enkidu. After overhearing rumors of a lost book that might serve as a key, I infiltrated the library's upper floors. Using lures and stealth, I eliminated several guards but found my progress blocked by a heavy soldier. After getting the hint about the hidden passage, I went to talk to my target's assistant. He initially claimed to know nothing, but after I offered him some scholar tokens, he spilled the information I needed. I reached a gatekeeper who demanded a passcode to let me through. Since I didn't have it, he refused to allow me past the gate, forcing me to find another way in. I called Enkidu to scout the area for the gardener the scholars had mentioned earlier. Enkidu spotted him tending to a garden located on one of the high rooftops. Without heading for the gardener just yet, I reached the floor directly above the gatekeeper. I managed to eavesdrop on two men discussing a lost book belonging to Fazil, which sounded like it might be the key to opening that gate. I tried to slip inside to look for the book, but a soldier spotted me almost immediately. I had to make a quick escape and hide until the alert level went back down. Once the guards gave up their search, I returned to the area. I moved through the shadows and assassinated two soldiers who were blocking my initial path. I spotted another soldier who was relaxing on duty. I had to wait for the perfect opportunity to strike, as several other guards were patrolling uncomfortably close to his position. When the moment was right, I took him down silently. I quickly hid the body in a nearby cabin to ensure no passing patrols would stumble upon my work. I intentionally let one of the guards get a glimpse of me to draw him away from his post. When he came to investigate, I assassinated him from around a corner. I hid in a wooden box and tried whistling to lure the remaining soldier over. He didn't respond much to the noise, and I couldn't risk a direct approach because there was a heavy soldier standing right next to him. Until next time, happy gaming.
