Eye

An Eye was a set of Isu technology that granted the Isu the ability to foretell the future through the calculations of innumerable possibilities. Created by the Isu scientist Minerva, the Eyes were described by her as "divination by numbers" and were so precise that its users could anticipate exact responses to their recordings in the future. In this way, they could interact with future beings as though they were speaking to them in real-time, allowing them to influence the future.Assassin's Creed III – Modern day
One component of an Eye was discovered by humans and became known as the Antikythera mechanism.Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag – Noob's personal files: – Abstergo Industries: "Crypto-History: Artifacts"
==History==
While working alongside Juno and Jupiter to investigate solutions for the pending catastrophe in 75,000 BCE, Minerva used the first Eye in an effort to save the world from the inevitable second disaster which she had calculated to take place in 2012 CE. With the Eye, she identified Desmond Miles as the individual who would be most likely of preventing the disaster.
Knowing Desmond would eventually relive the genetic memories of his ancestor Ezio Auditore through an Animus, Minerva used the Eye to appear before Ezio in the Vatican Vault on 28 December 1499 with a message for his descendant, warning him of the impeding solar flare.Assassin's Creed II – In Bocca al Lupo Eventually, Juno began to tamper with the device, prompting Minerva and Jupiter to destroy it and imprison Juno inside the Grand Temple.
In the 870s, Eivor Varinsdottir of the Raven Clan who had inherited Odin's genetic memories via the "seventh solution" experienced herbal concoction induced visions, in which one of she, as Havi, saw Minerva in her appearance as Gunlodr use the Eye to contact Ezio.Assassin's Creed: Valhalla – A Feast to Remember
In the mid-19th century, mentions of an Eye were discussed between Irish Assassin Oscar Kane and his apprentice Simeon Price to be most likely found in Assyria as Kane spoke of another Eye noted by the Templars. Kane mentioned his funding to excavate the site where the Eye might be found.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 10 By 1858, mentions of the Eye were found to be in Paris as the Parisian Brotherhood mostly focused on its retrieval.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 15 Kane soon assisted the Assassins to find it,Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 17 but with him taking it first before the Assassins and Templars.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 19
By 1861, the Eye was mentioned to be inspected in the British Museum in London. Yet, Kane still obtained it. Meanwhile, Price's apprentice, Pierrette Arnaud, was later abducted by the Templar countess Konstanze von Visler and forced to decipher Ada Lovelace's notes of another Eye being in a temple beneath Bath.Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 25 However, by investigation, Kane ventured and found the temple but the Eye was long gone, either by the Templars or by another party.[Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Magus Conspiracy – Chapter 27
After Juno was imprisoned, Minerva created a second Eye to reach out to Desmond once more on 21 December 2012, to determine whether he found a solution to prevent a second disaster. She discovered that Juno, whose consciousness had been digitally stored inside the temple, had been manipulating Desmond. Minerva urged Desmond not to use the global aurora borealis device, which would save the world from the solar flare but also free Juno from imprisonment, claiming that the world's destruction was better than Juno's release. In the end, Desmond decided to save the world, trusting that humanity would be able to counter Juno's threat.
In 2013, after researching the Eyes, Abstergo Industries discovered that the devices would have been extremely difficult to use due to the nature of the calculations, and would have required hundreds of thousands of trials to calculate events so far in the future.
In 2018, Assassin Layla Hassan and her assistant Alannah Ryan mistakenly identified the global aurora borealis device as the Eye and corresponded as such in their research notes on Aletheia.Assassin's Creed: Odyssey – Layla Hassan's personal files – Who is Alethia?: "The Capitoline Triad"
