Yeah, that mission is a bitch.
It takes a couple of tries to figure out how to tail without getting caught. And just as you figure it out, it drops you next to the fortress and that part is a bitch too.
Here's the biggest thing to remember - DO NOT hit R1 to assassinate in missions like this. If you're behind a corner, in a hiding spot or haystack, or hanging from a wall, just hit the square button. This is especially important when you're getting into the fortress at the end of "...And My Sugar" because if you press R1, you will jump onto the wall and get spotted. If you just press square, you can grab guards off of the wall and throw them into the drink several hundred feet below.
Not to scare you but it probably took me 30 minutes or so to finally master that mission. There's one not too long after that is WAY worse and very frustrating.
Fortunately, once you finish it, the game opens up and becomes way more fun and way less stressful.
Think of the first few missions as a really tough initiation to the game - it's not a traditional tutorial but they're forcing you to learn skills you'll need later.
