Summary
They hadn’t found an answer yet, and Layla was impatient despite the promise of the Grey being timeless in its nature. She didn’t want to have to search for an answer that might never come--so she made another suggestion. Why not just change it? Why not counter the Isu influence on the Pieces of Eden where it counted, and counter what Juno inevitably did to the Eye in the Grand Temple?
It was all the push that Desmond needed to let himself be just that bit more selfish. So selfish he chose to be, and there was one moment where the Isu’s hold on the Pieces of Eden had a profound effect--the Levantine Brotherhood. Altair Ibn-La’Ahad. Al Mualim. There was just one problem--Desmond was eight, a child, and didn’t remember dying.
Layla at least had his back, even if she was just a bit fashionably late.

Summary
When Juno and Minerva told him he was going to die if he activated the device to save the world, he believed them. They had no reason to lie and Minerva’s expression made it clear that she had been worried. Whether she had been worried about him or about the future of the world if Juno got out, Desmond didn’t know.
But he couldn’t help but think that Minerva had a hand in all these.
That the reason why he woke up in the city of Jerusalem during the 12th century was because of something she did.
Still…
He would have appreciated it if she didn’t also return him to his 16-year-old body.
Now, having no idea what to do, Desmond decided to let history play out the way it did before and made his way to Alamut to be inducted into the Brotherhood without being part of Masyaf.
This way he could monitor everything without being in the middle of it.Unfortunately, he forgot one important thing.
Everything he knows of this time period was based on Altaïr’s memories.
And, thanks to how different Abstergo’s Animus was from Rebecca’s, Altaïr’s memories had always been incomplete.
