The Assassin’s Creed Mirage Left Behind enigma is likely going to be among the first enigmas players find when strolling into Baghdad. It is a vague one, too, as it is just a crudely drawn map with a red X on it. Here’s how to solve the AC Mirage Left Behind enigma.
How to solve the AC Mirage Left Behind enigma
To solve the AC Mirage Left Behind enigma, you will first have to find the scroll. It is just south of the Metal Factory, which you go right by as you first come into Baghdad. It is even close to your direct path. Go into the house on the spot in the above map and you will have to pull down some scaffolding to get inside. It will by on the floor next to a sleeping (or dead) man.
You will not be greeted with a riddle when you pick it up, though. Instead, you will see the above map.
It is tricky, but it shows that the treasure is by a lion or red lion of some kind. It is hard to recognize because it is only the very far western edge of the map (as shown by the above picture) in the Abandoned Village. (There is also a easy-to-miss Tales of Baghdad side mission around here.)
Go to the spot on the above picture by the water and you will see a glowing spot in the sand. And while the picture implied some ferocious lion, it is just near some house cats It is the drawing of a child, so it makes sense that it will be embellished.
Dig at the glowing spot and you will get the Horned Lion talisman as your prize. This is a cosmetic item you can put on Basim in the Inventory menu.
