She eventually learned of the true murderer of her father’s death, whom she fought, but the opponents wielded a Piece of Eden, which was unstable and exploded. This explosion resulted in her death.
Elise Knew About Arno’s Family Allegiance Before Arno Knew It Himself
After the death of Arno’s father, Elise’s father, Francois de la Serre, told her about the true heritage of Arno, which was the allegiance for the Assassins’ Order. Francois then told Elise to train Arno in the ways of Templars.
This idea was against Elise and her Mother, Julie de la Serre. Julie and Elise managed to convince Francois to delay this plan to a further date.
