Overview
Chronicles: India is set in 19th-century India, during the final years of the Sikh Empire, and follows Arbaaz Mir, the protagonist of the graphic novel Assassin's Creed: Brahman and father of Henry Green, a supporting character in Assassin's Creed Syndicate. In 1841, following the assassination of Maharaja Ranjit Singh two years prior and the recent passing of his son and successor Kharak Singh, Templar agents within the East India Company attempt to strengthen their control over the country during this period of political instability, as well as find more Precursor sites.
After interrogating a British officer for Hamid's whereabouts, Arbaaz infiltrates the Templars' headquarters and rescues his Mentor. Hamid reveals that the Templars' new leader, William Sleeman, hopes to use the Precursor box to unravel the Koh-i-Noor's secrets, prompting Arbaaz to follow Sleeman and his men into an underground Precursor temple. After making his way past ancient death traps, Arbaaz confronts Sleeman, just as the latter unlocks a map showing the locations of other Precursor sites around the globe. Sleeman fires his gun at Arbaaz, who dodges the shot and lets it a Precursor structure, causing a chain reaction that results in the entire temple collapsing.
Arbaaz travels to Herat, where British forces have occupied the city's citadel and are being besieged by the Afghans. Arbaaz opens the gates of the citadel to let the Afghans in and create a distraction, allowing him to explore the Precursor site underneath the citadel. He finds a pedestal, but before he can touch it, he is held at gunpoint and captured by Sleeman and the Templars. Arbaaz is taken to the Katasraj Temple in Punjab, Pakistan, where he escapes and discovers that Sleeman left the Koh-i-Noor and the Precursor box behind, to be guarded by his right-hand man, Alexander Burnes.
