La fin prématurée des Hashashins a empêché l'avènement de l'Empire USA, dictature de droit divin qu'une poignée d’ultra-conservateurs appelaient de leurs vœux. Mais ne vous y trompez pas : l'Amérique n'a jamais été aussi puissante, et le XXIe siècle sera sien ! Jusqu'à ce qu'un nouvel ennemi émerge des ombres... fussent-elles celles du passé. Car « si l'on n'abat pas son ennemi, les guerres se répètent jusqu'à ce qu'elles trouvent vraiment une conclusion ». Et, aujourd'hui, certains Russes entendent bien écrire celle de la guerre froide !
