Official synopsis[]

The following content was translated from French by Soranin.
Dive into the Inquisition and witch hunt in the heart of the French Landes with Assassin's Creed!

1609. The Inquisition is raging in Europe, massacring thousands of men and women on charges of witchcraft. Raised in the Landes region of France, Margaux and Ermeline, 16 and 17 years old, are initiated into the practices of healers to follow in the footsteps of their adoptive mother, Catherine. While her youngest sister flourishes in this simple life, between hunting and apothecary, Ermeline dreams of something else, of settling in town, far from the forests of south-west France.

This peaceful life comes to an end when Catherine, denounced for witchcraft by a patient, is taken to Bayonne with her eldest daughter to Pierre de Lancre, a master inquisitor and Templar in search of an artefact belonging to said witch. When she refuses to talk, the Templar burns her alive, in front of Margaux, who had managed to flee and hide, and in front of Ermeline, whom he keeps as a hostage and manages to coax. Margaux, distraught, is taken in by Nicodemus, an Assassin close to Catherine, who will secretly train her in the Creed, while the anger of the French people rumbles against the Inquisition.

Separated, the two sisters will have to mourn their happy youth, but also make choices about which path to take and which destiny to join. Assassin or Templar? The path of blood, or the path of the heart?
