The Assassin’s Creed Mirage The Gift enigma is yet another cryptic message that players can intercept. This one has players looking for a “gate famed for its markets.” There are a lot of markets in Baghdad, so this is not the most specific hint. Here’s how to solve the AC Mirage The Gift enigma.
How to solve the AC Mirage The Gift enigma
To solve the AC Mirage The Gift enigma, you will need to track down the tiny scroll that gives you the prompt. This scroll is in Abbasiyah southwest of the Scholar’s Estate and a little south of Hammam. It is just on a rooftop at the above spot on the map, which should be clear as you draw closer to it. This note has a small message scrawled on it:
“If you should read this, know that I waited, in my head a token of past glories, my pledge to set aside the trappings of war for children’s toys and laughter. You never came. I cast my gift into the river, saw it borne towards the bridge where we first courted, near the gate famed for its markets. May it sail towards the setting sun, far beyond my view, bearing with it every hope I had of us – of me and you.”
The key takeaways from this message are the bridge, the “gate famed for its markets,” and how the treasure is going to “sail toward the setting sun.” While there are a lot of markets, this is referring to the Four Markets, a region west of the city. Noting how it will “sail toward the setting sun” means it will be going west. And the bridge means there will be a small bridge, implying there is water.
All of those clues together point to the above spot in the wilderness just north of the nearby synchronization point. Go near that bridge and there will be a glowing treasure on the east side of the bridge.
Dig it up and it will contain the Knight’s Talisman. You can equip this in the Inventory menu, but it has no stats associated with it and is merely cosmetic.
