Prince Ahmed of Granada was the son of Sultan Muhammad XII, the last Muslim monarch in the Iberian peninsula during the Reconquista.[1]
Biography[]
Towards the end of the Granada War, the young Ahmed was kidnapped by the Templars at a rural village of Andalusia, hoping to ransom him for the Apple of Eden in his father's possession. The Spanish Assassins Aguilar de Nerha, María, and Benedicto attempted to rescue him as he was transported away, but they failed and were captured alongside him.[1]
As planned, the Grand Inquisitor of the Spanish Inquisition Tomás de Torquemada later met with Muhammad XII in Alhambra, to exchange Ahmed with the sultan's Apple of Eden. The Templars stayed true to their deal, releasing Ahmed back to his father, but Aguilar and Maria launched an attack right afterwards.[1]
