A small excerpt on the history of Assassin's Creed: Blade of Shao Jun
In 1526 China, the Great Ming Empire thrived until Emperor Jiajing began a profound political purge, thus sparking a period of riots and turmoil. With the Brotherhood now gone, Shao Jun is the only Assassin still alive. So he decides to return to his native land to take revenge and look for a mysterious treasure that belonged to the Brotherhood.
But soon the situation becomes complicated, as he must face the powerful group of the Eight Tigers.
The story reveals the details of Shao Jun's current descendant Lisa Huang, a researcher who is testing a device called the Animus. The Animus allows her to relive Shao Jun's memories through some powerful simulations. Lisa is convinced she is working on behavioral therapy research, but she doesn't really know that Dr. Kagami is using her and Shao Jun's memories to find the mysterious treasure, whose fate now depends on both the past and the present!
