The Epilogue
Haytham did as he promised and continued to strenghten the order. He dedicated the majority of his time to this purpose in the 1760's. He recruited new members into the order and ensured that all subsequent governors of New York were sympathetic to the templar cause. During this time he also travelled around the colonies to establish alliances and when he had free time, he stayed at his plantation in Virginia. The American colonies fell completely under templar control due to his actions.
Shay Cormac left the colonies in 1766 and travelled to Prussia. He spent the following four years hunting the box there without results. Then he heard the box was moved to France. Shay settled in paris in 1770 and became associated with the Parisian rite of the templar order. It would take many years for Shay to find the box however. He eventually recovered it from the Palace of Versailles in 1776.
