The Order of Ancients forms an integral part of Assassin’s Creed Mirage. Apart from defeating the members as part of the main campaign, players can also take part in a side activity that helps them get some really powerful gear.
Mysterious Shards are items carried by Tha’abeen which can be found roaming all across Baghdad and beyond. Each region has two Tha’abeen carrying a mysterious shard each. What makes them tricky to locate is that they keep roaming around. Once you have completed the My Old Home quest, you should be able to see these collectibles marked on the map. Here is all you need to know about mysterious shards and where you can find them.
What Are The Rewards For Collecting Mysterious Shards?
Mysterious Shards are used to unlock the chests in the Isu Cave. There are three chests in total, and you need a specific number of Shards to unlock each of them. Here are the rewards you can get from the chests.

Assassins Creed Mirage: All Mysterious Shard Locations & Rewards
Here are all the estimated locations of the Tha’abeen. If you are unable to locate them when you reach the area, you can use Enkidu to find them. Since the Tha’abeen keep patrolling around a said area, they don’t have a fixed location, but their routes have been estimated by the interactive map. Additionally, it should be noted that they can go in both directions, clockwise and counterclockwise, so you need to search the entire perimeter in both directions to be sure.
