Governor's Mansion (New Orleans)

"In the meantime, may I suggest that you er... familiarize yourself with the governor's mansion? Perhaps discover a... uh... discreet way to enter?"

- Gérald Blanc to Aveline de Grandpré about infiltrating the mansion, 1765.

The governor's mansion was a large estate owned by Jean-Jacques Blaise d'Abbadie, the French colonial governor of Louisiana. The mansion was located in New Orleans, near the Place d'Armes.

In 1765, governor d'Abbadie hosted a social soirée at his mansion, during which he had a private meeting with the Templar Rafael Joaquín de Ferrer in his office, concerning their deal to keep d'Abbadie in power in exchange for his help in procuring slaves and vagrants for a secret project in Mexico. This discussion was eavesdropped upon by the Assassin Aveline de Grandpré, who, following the departure of de Ferrer, assassinated governor d'Abbadie, foiling their plans.
