(This is speculation. The territorial boundaries of an Assassin branch need not be coterminous with sovereign state borders. Absent any source that says the Louisiana Brotherhood merged with the American Brotherhood, this is pure speculation. Besides, this article is about the branch founded by Agaté predating Achilles' branch.)

Their primary goal was to eliminate Templar control in the colonies of New Spain, but Agaté's relocation was mainly motivated by his hunt for his former lover Jeanne, who had stolen the Prophecy Disks from him and found refuge in New Orleans.

In the wake of this defeat, one of Mackandal's apprentices, Agaté, left Saint-Domingue in pursuit of his former lover, Jeanne, who had stolen the prized Prophecy Disks from him. Having learned that Jeanne had settled in New Orleans, he arrived in Louisiana, only to lose track of his quarry as Jeanne had speedily fled Louisiana upon hearing that Agaté was nearby. Since Jeanne had a daughter, Aveline de Grandpré, who she had left behind, Agaté decided to stay in New Orleans to protect her. In 1759, Aveline, who got in trouble after rescuing slaves, was saved by Agaté. Seeing Aveline's potential and her desire for justice and freedom, Agaté took her as an apprentice and inducted her in the Assassin Brotherhood after months of training. The same year, Gérald Blanc, a friend of Aveline, was also recruited by Agaté to serve as a spy and a logistician for the brotherhood.

Aveline dicovering the message of the Prophecy Disk

In the Saint Paul Cathedral, Aveline brought Agaté's necklace as a proof she killed her mentor to Madeleine and also the two Prophecy Disks. Then Madeleine inducted her step-daughter to the Templar Order and reunited the two disks but failed to understand the message it contained. She realized it was missing another artefact: the Heart of the Brotherhood, which was given to Aveline as a pendant by her mother years earlier. Madeleine ordered her followers to kill Aveline but the Assassin killed her and the other Templars. Aveline understood that Madeleine forced her mother to flew New Orleans and also poisoned her father. Madeleine was adamant that her actions had been for the good of humanity and Aveline finished her. Using the Heart, Aveline discovered the message of the Prophecy Disks: the election of Eve as the leader of the humans during the Human-Isu War. Afterward, Gerald arrived and Aveline said to him that it was done.[1]
