Assassin's Creed Mirage Left Behind Enigma location and loot

The Assassin's Creed Mirage Left Behind Enigma leads you to an abandoned village and a Talisman reward if you can decipher the drawing. The picture is very unhelpful as a clue, apart from the fact you can see some buildings near water and animals, including a specifically angry cat. Because there aren't many animals roaming Baghdad, that narrows things down to a few Assassin's Creed Mirage settlements in the desert wilderness. To help you track down the location you need, I've outlined everything required for the solution for the Left Behind Enigma in Assassin's Creed Mirage.

To find the Left Behind Enigma clue location in Assassin's Creed Mirage then head to this building south of the Metal Factory in Harbiyah, which is next to a very small canal, marked on the map above. 

You can spot the Enigma scroll on the building's upper floor with Eagle Vision, but a barred door blocks the way. Head around to the other side of the building's upper floor and destroy the scaffolding to reveal a window you can jump through to grab the Enigma inside. 

Once you have it, check the clue in your inventory to get an idea of where the loot is via a very basic drawing of some buildings near water and an angry lion. The gallery below shows you what you're looking for, with the Enigma shown the map and in-game: 

The location shown in the picture is actually in the Abandoned Village west of Baghdad. Once there, head to the most southerly point of the village – a small cove with a wooden boat jetty – and you'll find the glowing Left Behind Enigma loot on the beach. Watch out for an angry leopard that will almost certainly try to kill you unless you sneak past it. The loot itself is a Horned Lion Talisman for Basim to wear, and that's it. It doesn't have any special bonuses and it's the only thing you get. Back to Baghdad, I guess!
