Once upon a town just 2 miles from camelot a boy named ray phantomhive saw the unjustly doings of the nobels to the poor.
Seeing such acts ignited his will to fight for his people no not just the people of this town he wanted to liberate them all.

       Years passed the young lad turned into a mercenary at the young age of 13 he understood that in this world it's either be killed or kill.
But on one fateful day he met bayek an assassin from the middle east. Seeing the boy doing mercenary jobs he asked him.

Bayek: Why do you do this boy?

The boy looked at him with his eyes burning with passion, and answered.

Ray: I saw the cruelty in this world and i want to correct it, however i still don't have enough training to fight back. But one day i will liberate them all!

Bayek seeing the boy's passion decides to train him......

In the ways of the creed.

      Many years has passed bayek passed away, but not before wishing ray to spread the creed and it's beliefs.
Ray did so recruiting street children and the poor just like him before, he helped them just like he intended from the beginning.

    Years passed and the legend of the shadow has been popularised.
Haunting the nobels and dukes having the fear of one man foiling their "hard earned money". However during a mission he was wounded just a cut in his shoulder. He decided to rest on a nearby cave, more so hearing some faint whispers. Following the whispers, he found a sword stuck in the cave's ceiling having the light of the moon shine on it. Drawing closer he pulled the sword gaining it's name and abilities.

EXCALIBUR LUNA: The sword of the moon gifted to the lady of the lake.

   Years of liberation and helping thw poor reached the king. Hearing this he sent his court mage to find this man.
The mage quickly sent out to find him.
Locating and tracking him for weeks end, but at the fourth week he found him. At the top of a tower ready to jump.
 
    Seeing the man the mage told the assassin that the king wanted to see him, with a nod both of them rode to camelot.
Upon seeing the man the king demanded him to knell before him however the man only responded with.

"I bow to no one. No one man can make me bow to them. I hear the pleas of the people and i respond to them. I will not join you as a knight but know this i will aid just for the sake of the people. However if you bring these people to ruin i will not hesitate to cut you down"

   With a puff of smoke the assassin disappeared.

    Many years has passed and the  creed has expanded it's numbers from 20 to a hundred ranging fron farmers to street children to widows who lost their husbands to the nobels.
The assassin watched as the creed grows. However fate has other plans. He met a young woman, her name was mordred.
He trained her with the way of the sword not knowing that the sword that she used in sparring with him will also be the one to end his life.

     On the day of mordred's rebellion on the field 3 miles away from camelot, he faced mordred armed with excalibur luna he faced his so called daughter on a fight that lasted for  hours on end. But the decisive swing was when the assassin let excalibur luna back to his body.......
And let mordred slash his chest.

On his last word for mordred he asked.

"Was i not enough for you to call me father. If so then this is the first and last mission that i failed, i failed being a proper father figure to you."

  Seeing this mordred shed some tears and left him a top of a beautiful green hill overlooking camelot.

  Knowing this is his end, he called all the hidden assassins that are hiding on the trees near the hill. Some of them shed tears some tried to hold but can not. Seeing them all here he stated his last words before drawing his last breath.

" My brother and sisters hear this  assassins plea. Spread the brotherhood, protect the weak liberate the oppressed. Continue to work for the shadows so we can protect the light.  Like the first one bayek said.....n-n-noth-ing i-is t-true e-e-ever-yt-thing i-i-s p-per-m-mitted.

Thus ending the legend of the shadow who liberated them all.
