Years later, the Codex was passed back into the possession of the Polos when Niccolò's son, Marco, retrieved it from the court of Kublai Khan. Two days later however, a Mongol raiding party intercepted Niccolò and his brother Maffeo as they were fleeing, and took the Codex from them.
ĭuring the Mongol siege of Masyaf in 1257, Altaïr bequeathed the Codex and five curious seals to Niccolò Polo for safe keeping. Eventually, near age 92, Altaïr completed the Codex. Īltaïr was able to improve the Assassin Order's methods of assassination, including the use of poison, as well as invent several weapons, one of them being the Hidden Gun. Throughout most of his life Altaïr wrote about important aspects of his life in his journal, including the ongoing war between the Assassins and Templars, his philosophy on life itself, his personal opinions regarding God and religions in general, and more importantly, information obtained from the Apple of Eden. Shortly after the retaking of Masyaf from Al Mualim in 1191, Altaïr began writing the Codex.
