Diego

Diego was a Spanish peasant living in a village near Granada around the time of the Granada War.

In 1491, as a friend of the Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins, Diego was tasked to hide and protect Prince Ahmed from the Templars who wanted to use him as a bargaining chip against his father, Sultan Muhammad XII of Granada.

However, the Templars somehow learned of the Prince's whereabouts and sent Ojeda and Ramirez to capture him. Rounding the habitants of Diego's village, the Templars and their men searched the houses until they found the hidden boy under the floor of Diego's barn.

Molesting a woman, the Ojeda demanded to know which household harbored the boy and Diego bravely advanced, telling the fearsome Templar that he was the responsible and that no one else knew. Ojeda then ordered his men to hang Diego's family under his eyes and then to burn the village. Fortunately, an Assassin rescue team les by Benedicto assaulted the Templars and their men before they could carry on Ojeda's orders.
