Their ship, the ''Falcon Temple'', is damaged in a storm at sea and sinks. One of the Knights is mortally wounded in the event; he dies on land after hiding a small leather pouch under a gravestone. He charges the remainder of the ship's company to deliver an encoded letter to the Head of the Templars.

The last Knight commits himself to maintaining the legend of the Templars' threat to the Catholic Church.
