The Assassins (الحشاشين)

The magic plant.

The plant of the other world.

On Hassan's way inviting to his new school of thought.

He discovered a plant that was named by Zaid Ibn Suhon.

The magic plant.

Just as I expected, I found it here.

The magic plant.

The plant of the other world. "If you wish to go to paradise"

It will guide you.

Hassan Al-Sabbah with a small group of castle electees.

Managed to defeat the mighty armies of the earth.

Armies of thousands of conventional soldiers.

Including horses and equipment.

Nizam Al-Mulk sent to him

The strongest armies of the Sultanate

But Al-Sabbah triumphed.

Retreat!

Retreat!

The Sultan's soldiers fled from the strength and

brutality of the chosen ones of Alamut castle.

An event that will be recorded in history.

And spoken about by the masses for centuries.

And spoken about by the masses for centuries.

Stay with me, stay with me, you won't die.

We're going to the castle.

Hassan the strong, smart man.

He will not let an event like this pass unnoticed.

Yahya.

With those who survived, let them go.

Take their weapons and horses, and let them leave the castle unharmed.

Let them live.

They are the ones who witnessed.

The greatest armies on earth.

Defeated by the chosen ones of our faith.

Let them herald our message.

Let them herald our message.

Hassan is a man who exploits opportunities.

No matter what they are.

- Allahu Akbar. - Allahu Akbar.

Barzak Amide

The loyal, and faithful.

Mawlana told me about your triumphant return.

Praise be to Allah, our master.

Praise be to Allah, our master.

The whole world knew the power of the Sheikh

of the mountain and his faithful followers.

The Sultan and his minister knew the strength of Alamut castle.

And history will remember that a small group of believers...

managed to defeat the strongest armies on earth.

We won by the blessings of the Imam.

And the blessings of our master Hassan Al-Sabbah.

All believers are enthusiastic.

Anticipating the coming victory.

Today is a celebration day.

No training or maintenance.

And from tomorrow.

There will be a different kind of training.

Meaning there is something our master sees but has not announced.

I foresaw victory before it even happened, Zaid.

And saw the armies of King Shah fleeing and screaming.

And I saw the regret in the king's regime

before his forces surrounded the Alamut castle.

And I saw you before I saved you in Isfahan.

Leave us.

Alamut castle won't fight again.

Do you know what's the most dangerous thing Alamut castle can do, Zaid?

Not that it defeats a large army.

But that it topples great nations.

Imagine a single believer from Alamut castle.

With a dagger and faith.

Capable of toppling a strong nation that's been

established for years with army and wealth!

It's terrifying and exciting.

And it changes the entire world.

You don't need to fight a country to defeat it.

But to behead it...

Mawlana wants to kill the Sultan.

The country's head needn't be its Sultan.

The head might be a thinker or a scientist.

Or a minister.

Hassan Al-Sabbah defeated our army.

And Arslan Tash retreated with the remaining soldiers.

What's this, Sultan's minister!

An army of conventional fighters...

defeated the Franks...

Opened up countries no Muslim has reached.

Is defeated by a group of 300 men!

Why? Who is this Hassan Al-Sabbah!

The entire world will talk about the miracle this man has done.

The entire world will talk about the miracle this man has done.

With a small number like this.

Breaking the strongest armies on earth.

- My lord... - Quiet.

Stay in your home.

Until I decide what to do with you.

How for a man hiding in a castle...

to defeat an army we couldn't defeat it oursleves?

Your Majesty

Luck and intelligence

Play vital roles in battles

I don't want to wait for luck and trickery

I won't repeat what has happened before

Your Majesty

I have an idea

Let's send a delegation to the castle

Asking for their loyalty to us

In return, we will help them in their battles

Against Sultan Malik-Shah

Yahya.

Yahya.

Commander Harun.

Commander Harun.

Opened his eyes.

Thank god you lived.

I was going to send your family news of your death.

I have no family.

I wish I had died!

I wish I had died instead of returning like this.

No, Yahya.

You're neither a coward nor a deserter.

You're neither a coward nor a deserter.

Thank god you lived.

Our escape with you injured amidst them is a miracle, Yahya.

The war isn't over yet.

I have only one breath left, and it will take towards them.

Just get well...

And I promise you, we will avenge those who left us one by one.

You remind me of a brave, rebellious girl. She was just like you.

You remind me of a brave, rebellious girl. She was just like you.

But she turned her courage into a different life

A life she can live without a heart

Without pain

Or regret or love

A rebellious young woman who wanted to break out and rebel

What will be her punishment?

Death

But I'll give you another chance

to live

As long as none of the believers saw you,

this is a sign for me to give you this chance

But the price of your new life...

But the price of your new life...

is to be the link between me and the girls

Any mistake by any one of them will be your responsibility.

Which means her death...

Or her life…

will be on you

- But I'm not able to... - I don't want to hear your voice

And remember well, this is not forgiveness

I'm just continuing the game of fate with you

Either continue your life as I want...

Or make another mistake and I end your life...

As I want.

To your room

How did you get in here?

What?

Al-Hadi changes the world with his own hands, like his father!

No

Why is Al-Hadi not happy?

I'm bored, I want friends my age to play with

I can play with you

And we can change the world with our hands both of us

Let Al-Hadi, son of Hassan Al-Al-Sabbah...

fly from Baghdad to Isfahan

and sit in the place of the Sultan and the Caliph

You are an adult playing an adult game, I want friends my age

Don't you have friends to play with?

I do.

And I play with them

And I play with them

Who are they?

They are...

They change over time

But you like to sit with them and see them from time to time.

Yes

In Isfahan, when I hit my friend my mother got mad at me

And she told me that a friend has rights...

Over his friend, and I didn't understand anything.

Friendship is not an easy thing, Al-Hadi!

And a friend truly has rights over his friend

And a friend truly has rights over his friend

What are these rights?

For instance, don't upset him

Don't hurt him

Don't betray him

What does it mean not betraying my friend! Does it mean not hurting him?

No

Betrayal means that there's eating, living,

and drinking between you and your friend

And secrets

And in a moment you forget all of that

And in the midst of him trusting you and turning his back...

You hurt him or let someone else hurt him

You hurt him or let someone else hurt him

Is it possible for someone to hurt his friend or betray him?

Possible.

Anything in this world is possible, Hadi.

Except for one thing

That you allow someone to fail you or hurt you again.

How?
