One of the tasks advancing the plot in Assassin's Creed Mirage is the mission "Gilded Butterflies", in which Basim has to kill the Treasurer from Karkh. In this guide, we will explore where to find the task and how to complete it.

How to get the Gilded Butterflies mission in Assassin's Creed Mirage

Head to Roshan, who is located on the roof of one of the buildings in the Bazaar area. Complete the mission "A Faceless Feather", the next quest is the one we need.

How to complete the Gilded Butterflies mission

Head towards the bazaar and enter the location through the central entrance. We need to find informants who will provide very valuable information. Move forward and, upon reaching the crossroads, turn right. Under the canopy of one of the trading points, you'll meet Kong. Talk to him, and the man will tell you that Luca stole a dish made of very expensive materials from him and will ask you to return it in exchange for information.

Dish for Kong

Go to the right, reach the junction, and turn to the right side. Once you're outside the bazaar, turn to the left side and approach the entrance. Enter the building and turn left.

Near the far wall, there's a rack, which you need to pull back to the opposite side.

Climb up on it and pick up the red vessel. You'll need it to clear the pathway blocked by stones to another room.

Move the cupboard to the newly unlocked room and position it in a way that allows you to jump onto the beams above. Climb up to the higher floor, where the desired item will be lying on a table.

Take it and return to Kong. As a token of gratitude, the merchant will tell you about the conversation between two women about an order for Da`irat Al-mal.

The Foreign Merchant

After finishing the conversation with Kong, head to the right intersection. On the left, you'll encounter a foreign merchant who will invite you to his shop. Check out his merchandise. He will tell about a very valuable hairpin that is up for auction.

Mysterious Women

Jump through the window onto the hanging ropes and crawl to the other part of the balcony. Sit on the bench and eavesdrop on the conversation of the two ladies.

Once they finish their dialogue, follow them, ensuring you maintain a distance to avoid being detected. When you reach the next location, eavesdrop on their conversation again, where information about the treasurer will come up.

The Perfume Supplier will leave, so you can talk to Qabiha. We'll learn that the treasurer is a woman named Ning.

The Great Auction

After speaking with the girl, head to the Great Auction, which will take place in the central part of the bazaar square. Take the position marked by the marker and wait for the start of the auction. The item we're interested in is the very hairpin brought from China.

During the auction, we'll see the treasurer for the first time, surrounded by guards. The bidding will start, and if funds permit, you can buy the hairpin.

Stealing the Hairpin

If you don't have the money, you'll need to steal the item. Climb up to the balcony where the merchant stands. Get down to the veranda and steal the hairpin, ensuring you aren't detected.

Proceed to the entrance of the treasurer's chamber, which will be marked on the map. The door is guarded by a sentry, who informs us that without the special "Ivory Coin's Brooch", we can't proceed.

How to obtain the brooch

From the sentry, move towards the other part of the location until you find another entrance to the bazaar. Find the Spice Merchant there and start a dialogue with her. She'll reveal that she has run into some problems with the "Ivory Coin" guild. You can bribe the merchant to get more information.

Finish the dialogue, turn right and head to the bazaar's exit. Climb up the guild's building. Enter and jump to the first floor. Enter the room with two guards, eliminate them and take the brooch from the cushion on the table.

Killing the Treasurer

Follow the known route to Ning's chambers. Speak to the guard, show him the required items to gain entry. Move carefully, follow the servant to the large hall where you'll wait for the treasurer. Speak to her and proceed to Ning's reception chamber. Give her the hairpin. The woman will dismiss her guards, seize the moment, and deliver a fatal blow to her.

Reward for completing the mission

For completing the quest, we will receive:

• 3 skill points;
• Bloody Heron Feather.
