The Legend of The Sky Woman

10m · Published 27 Apr 05:00

Throughout Assassin’s Creed real world myths and legends are taken and molded to represent something that happened within the Isu Era. For instance, the legend of the Sky Woman was presented in Assassin’s Creed Rogue in the form of 24 Cave paintings found across the American Colonies by Shay Cormac in 1757. Today, I take a look at the Iroquois legend of the Sky Woman and what that could mean within Assassin’s Creed.
