A Man They Call the Sage

2026-10-11T00:38:50Z

Fielran: added ACBFR dialogue, minor corrections to original dialogue. Incomplete - needs ACBFR Spanish dialogue, verify new French dialogue. (It sure sounds like du Casse is saying Mon Bleu rather then Mon Dieu, but it seems weird)

'''A Man They Call the Sage''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Edward Kenway]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived first by [[Noob|a research analyst]] at [[Abstergo Entertainment]] in 2013 through the [[Animus|Animus Omega]],<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref> and then by [[Animus EGO user|another user]] as an {{Wiki|Generative AI|altered representation}} through the Animus EGO.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced]]''</ref>

==Description==
Edward met with the [[Templars]] at the docks to meet the [[Sage]] and escort him to the governor's [[Governor's Mansion, Havana|mansion]].

==Dialogue==
Edward met with Woodes Rogers near the docks.
*'''[[Woodes Rogers|Woodes]]:''' ''Ah, Duncan! Hello.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Good morning, [[Duncan Walpole|Duncan]]. Just over here...''
*'''[[Stede Bonnet|Stede]]:''' ''Edward! Hello, Edward! I found a man to purchase my remaining sugar! Quite a coup, I must say!''
*'''Woodes:''' ''He just called you Edward.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Oh, that's the [[Merchants|merchant]] who sailed me here. Out of caution, I gave him a false name. ''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Ah... well done.''
*'''Edward:''' ''We'll catch up, Bonnet! Later.''
Edward and Rogers joined [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala|Governor Torres]], his bodyguard [[El Tiburón]], and [[Julien du Casse]].
*'''Laureano:''' ''Very punctual, Duncan. This way.''
Edward followed the Templars under a small pavilion, where a man sat cuffed in a chair and under guard.
*'''[[Laureano de Torres y Ayala|Laureano]]:''' ''Here he is, a man both Templars and [[Assassins]] have sought for over a decade. I am told your surname is [[Bartholomew Roberts|Roberts]]. Is this so? You recognize this, I think. ''
He produced the [[blood vial]] and drew some of Roberts' blood into it.
[[File:A Man They Call The Sage 4.png|thumb|250px|Torres drawing Roberts' blood into the vial]]
*'''Julien:''' ''According to the old tales, the blood of a sage is required to enter the [[Observatory (Isu)|Observatory]].''
*'''Laureano:''' ''We have the key. Now we need only its location. Perhaps mister Roberts will be eager to provide it. Transfer him to my residence.''
The group headed towards Torres' residence, with Roberts still under guard.
*'''Edward:''' ''Such a fuss over one man. Is the Observatory really such a grand prize?''
*'''Laureano:''' Sí, sin duda. ''(Yes, indeed.) The Observatory was a tool built by the [[Isu|Precursor race]]. Its worth is without measure.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Precursor race... I see.''
*'''Laureano:''' ''One of your early letters mentioned the desire to kill the [[Maya]]n [[Mentor]], [[Ah Tabai]]. Were you able to carry out this contract before coming here?''
*'''Edward:''' ''I... I was not, no. Too many... complications along the way.''
*'''Laureano:''' ''A pity. But the [[map]]s you delivered with this vial will see that job finished.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Aye. That's the idea.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
|-|Resynced=
*'''Woodes:''' ''It's too quiet.''
</tabber>
*'''Woodes:''' ''I don't like this route, Torres. We're exposed.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Something is wrong. Stay close, [[Grand Master of the Templar Order|Grand Master]]!''
*'''Lareano:''' ''I feel it too. Do not let them get their hands on the Sage! At whatever cost!''
During the journey to the mansion, the group was attacked by Assassins.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Woodes:''' ''Assassins! Above! They're on the rooftops! Crossing me is fatal, cur! Don't expect mercy. I've survived much worse than you! To action then. It ends now! You're consigned to oblivion.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Watch the streets and alleys. They could be anywhere!''
*'''Torres:''' ''Protect the Sage!''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Woodes:''' ''Assassins!''
*'''Julien:''' ''Assassins! Malédiction! (Shit!)''
*'''Torres:''' ''Guard the Sage! (Guard the Sage! Quickly!''
*'''Woodes:''' ''There! Protect the Governor!''
*'''Julien:''' Une deuxième tempête se lève. ''(A second storm beckons.) To the Governor's Residence, quickly! Watch the streets and alleys. They could be anywhere.''
They were attacked again.
*'''Julien:''' ''Assassins! (Assassins!)''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Above! They're on the rooftops!''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Triple the shipment of firearms, Julien. These attacks will escalate.''
*'''Lareano:''' Sí. ''(Yes.) We do well to brace for further troubles.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Whatever they try, we won't be caught unprepared again. The Governor's Residence is near! Come!''
They made their way to a market square and were again set upon.
*'''Woodes:''' ''Another wave!''
*'''Julien:''' ''To arms!''
*'''Lareano:''' ''Protect the Sage!''
*'''Julien:''' Mon bleu! ''(Fuck!) We need to move, now!''
</tabber>
Edward and the others fought off the attack, but they were caught by surprise when more Assassins ambushed their group. One landed to Rogers' left and used a [[blowpipe]] to fire a [[poison]] [[dart]] at him, and another dart hit the right side of his neck. Another leaped down to air-assassinate one of Roberts' two escorting soldiers with his right [[Hidden Blade]]. The other soldier immediately drew his sword to impale the Assassin, who swept their right arm within the sword's guard to knock it aside and used their left Hidden Blade to stab the soldier's neck, killing him.

A third Assassin leaped down and fired a dart at Edward, slowing him down long enough for them to break Roberts' cuffs with their Hidden Blades; Roberts immediately used his freed hands to stab the Assassin with his own hidden blade. Behind them, [[El Tiburón]] charged an Assassin and chopped at their back with his [[battleaxe]], then threw his axe at another, lodging the blade in their chest. Amidst the chaos, Roberts took the chance to escape.
*'''Guard:''' ''Ah!''
*'''Laureano:''' ''Stop him!''
Edward gave chase after Roberts.
*'''Edward:''' ''You're a nimble one, I'll give you that.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
|-|Resynced=
*'''Roberts:''' ''Whelp! You curs are on a course you'll sorely regret!''
Roberts came to a locked gate.
*'''Roberts:''' ''Blast! Is there no way out of this dust bowl?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hah! Nowhere to run.''
*'''Roberts:''' ''Have you ever been flayed, boy?''
*'''Edward:''' ''They could never catch me.''
Edward and Roberts fought, and Edward prevailed.
*'''Edward:''' ''Got you!''
</tabber>
He managed to capture the Sage and escorted him back at [[Firearm|gunpoint]].
*'''Roberts:''' ''Well done, lap dog.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Quiet!''
*'''Julien:''' ''We'll see him to the prisons, Grand Master.''
*'''Laureano:''' ''Double the watch.''
[[File:A Man They Call The Sage 10.png|thumb|250px|Woodes parting company with the others]]
*'''Woodes:''' ''Well, I'll be buggered. What an active day we've had, gents!''
*'''Laureano:''' Sí. ''(Yes.) Beset on all sides by our enemies. We must be more cautious.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''I do wish I could remain to see our drama done, but I must avail myself of these winds and sail for [[United Kingdom|England]].''
*'''Laureano:''' ''By all means, Captain. Speed and fortune to you.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''With luck, I'll return myself a governor. And with my idiot [[George I of Great Britain|King]]'s blessing, no less.'' ¡Adios! ''(Goodbye!)''
Torres handed Edward a purse full of coins.
*'''Laureano:''' ''As for you, Mr. Walpole... I consider this the first payment in a long-term investment.'' Gracias. ''(Thank you.)''
*'''Edward:''' ''Obliged.''
*'''Torres:''' ''I would like you to be present for the [[interrogation]] tomorrow. Call around noon.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Yes, sir.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
|-|Resynced=
*'''Edward:''' ''All that toil for this pittance? Jaysus.''
</tabber>
==Outcome==
Edward managed to recapture the Sage for the Templars, and received the payment for the delivered maps and blood vial.

==Behind the scenes==
In the [[Assassin's Creed: Black Flag|novelization]], the Assassin attack on the Templars in order to rescue Roberts is omitted, and the Templars' [[Initiation into the Templar Order|initiation]] scene leads directly into Rogers' departure for England. Despite this, Ah Tabai still berates Edward for murdering his students in the novel.

Some Assassins can be seen assassinating guards from [[hiding spot]]s, and Edward could shoot the unarmed Assassins during his walk with the Templars.

The music that plays while escorting Roberts and the Templars is [[Assassin's Creed III soundtrack|borrowed]] from ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'', making it the only major piece of music in the game not newly-composed from the [[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag soundtrack|soundtrack]].

Once you have brough all you can into our Employ at [[Nassau]], take whatever [[Gold]] is left and store it with the rest at the [[Peter Beckford|Beckford]] [[Cat Island|Estate]]. Await Word from me there. [[Robert Maynard|I]] have to finish our other Business.

'''Mister Walpole, I Presume?''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Edward Kenway]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived by [[Noob|a research analyst]] in 2013 at [[Abstergo Entertainment]] through the [[Animus|Animus Omega]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

==Description==
Edward, still posing as [[Duncan Walpole]], met with Governor [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala|Laureano Torres]] and his [[West Indies Rite of the Templar Order|associates]], hoping to claim his reward.

==Dialogue==
Edward walked up to the gate of the Governor's [[Governor's Mansion, Havana|mansion]].
*'''Edward:''' ¡Buenos dias! ''(Good Morning!) Mister Duncan Walpole of [[England]] to see the Governor, I believe he is expecting me.''
*'''Guard:''' Sí, señor Walpole. Entre, por favor. ''(Yes, Mister Walpole, Please enter.)''
*'''Soldier 1:''' ¿Ese es el hom bre? El... ¿Cómo lo llamabas? ¿[[Assassins|Asesino]]? ''(Is that the man? The... what do they call him, Assassin?)''
*'''Soldier 2:''' Sí. Duncan Walpole. Debería haber llegado hace muchos días. ''(Yes. Duncan Walpole. He should have been here many days ago.)''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Soldier 1:''' No me gusta que los extranjeros se paseen por nuestra ciudad. No me fío de ellos. ''(I don't like these foreigners strolling about the city. I don't trust them.)''
*'''Soldier 2:''' Cállate. ¡El gobernador tiene invitados! ¡Todos [[france]]ses e ingleses! ''(Hold your tongue, man. The governor has guests! From France and England alike!)''
*'''Soldier 3:''' Parece un hombre rudo. Le suponía un aspectos más... respetable. ''(He's a rough looking man. I assumed he might look... respectable.)''
*'''Soldier 4:''' Lleva meses en alta mar. Sé indulgente con él. ''(The man's been at [[Atlantic Ocean|sea]] for months. Be easy on him.)''

Edward met two men on the terrace.
[[File:Mister Walpole I Presume 2.png|thumb|250px|Woodes Rogers introducing himself to Edward]]
*'''Woodes:''' ''Good morning, Sir! Would I be correct in thinking you are Duncan Walpole?''
*'''Edward:''' ''I am indeed.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''I thought as much. [[Woodes Rogers]]. A pleasure.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The same.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''I must say, my wife has a terrible eye for description.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I'm sorry?''
*'''Woodes:''' ''My wife. You met her some years ago at the Percys' masquerade ball.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah! Quite...''
*'''Woodes:''' ''She called you 'devilishly handsome'. Obviously a lie to stoke my jealousy. Julien! Our guest of honor has arrived, Mister Duncan Walpole.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Ah... [[Julien du Casse]]. I hope your conversion to our [[Templars|Order]] is an honest one. I have no love for Assassins, but even less for liars.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I have not come to disappoint.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Up for a bit of sport, Duncan? The old man isn't ready just yet.''
<tabber>

*'''Woodes:''' ''You've got my two best pairs of matched [[Firearm|pistols]], Duncan, so handle with care.''
*'''Edward:''' ''If I had eight, I'd treat each as my own son.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Pull off a few shots, if you like. Get a feel for it.''
*'''Julien:''' ''I once fought beside a man who carried nine on his person. They were a boon in battle but hindered his ability to swim, sadly.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Quite. Has a good kick, yes?''
*'''Julien:''' ''I long for the day where one firearm carries four bullets, and not the opposite.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''I have a friend in England you may like to meet, Julien. [[James Puckle]]... he's working on [[Puckle gun|something extraordinary]].''
*'''Julien:''' Magnifique! ''(Wonderful!)''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Enough amusements, Duncan. How about a true challenge? All right. Here's a simple challenge. Try to strike every target before this hourglass empties. Remember, hit every target within the allotted time.''

Edward shot the last target.

Edward hit various targets.

[[File:Mister Walpole I Presume 5.png|thumb|250px|Julien giving Edward new Hidden Blades]]
*'''Julien:''' ''Duncan. Where are your [[Hidden Blades|wrist blades]]? I have never seen an Assassin so ill equipped.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah. Damaged, sadly. Beyond all repair.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Hm. Have your choice.''
Julien presented Edward with a [[Treasure chest|chest]] filled with Hidden Blades.
*'''Edward:''' ''Where did you find all these?''
*'''Julien:''' ''I did not find them. I took them. These are souvenirs.''
Edward followed Rogers and du Casse.
*'''Julien:''' ''Two blades, as is the custom,'' oui ''(yes)?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Custom, aye.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Duncan, would you indulge us with a demonstration of your techniques?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well I, uh...''
*'''Woodes:''' ''You must! We put together a training course in anticipation of your arrival. It would be a shame to leave here without seeing you in action.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Yes, of course... I mean if there is time I would gladly, uh... show you what I know.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Here, you see... Situations well suited for your skills.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Woodes:''' ''Have a go! A [[Blending|blade in a crowd]] is always the simplest. Nothing grandiose. Just quick and clean.''
*'''Julien:''' ''Show us another technique!''
|-|Resynced=
</tabber>
Edward climbed into a hay cart with a dummy nearby.
*'''Woodes:''' ''Quite ingenious to use [[Hiding spot|bales of hay]] as cover, don't you think?''
Edward stabbed the dummy, dragging it into the hay cart.
*'''Woodes:''' ''[[Christianity|God]]! That's the spirit! Secrecy.''
Edward approached a corner behind another dummy.
*'''Woodes:''' ''The advantage of surprise cannot be overstated, isn't that so? Especially around a blind corner.''
He stabbed the dummy and pulled it around the corner.
*'''Woodes:''' ''God blind me, that's a clever trick.''
Edward climbed onto a roof.
*'''Julien:''' ''Your aerial kills have a poetic beauty, despite their conspicuous quality. Would you show us?''
*'''Julien:''' Magnifique! ''(Magnificent!)''
Edward moved towards a dummy in the open.
*'''Julien:''' ''Is it also possible to deliver a killing blow at high speed?''
He sprinted towards the dummy and stabbed it, knocking it over.
*'''Julien:''' Mon Dieu! ''(My God!) Such a powerful strike!''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Fascinating.''
The training course completed, the men walked further into the estate to meet the Governor.
*'''Julien:''' ''The Assassins have trained you well, Duncan. You chose a perfect time to leave them behind.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''At great risk, I imagine. Betraying the Assassins is never good for one's health.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well, neither is drinking liquor, but I am drawn to its dangers all the same. And what is your business here, Sir? Are you an associate of the governor's? Or a pending acquaintance like myself?''
*'''Julien:''' ''Guns, [[Sword|blades]], [[cannon]]s,'' [[Grenade launcher|grenadoes]] ''(grenades)... Anything that may kill a man, I am happy to provide.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''A [[Smuggling|smuggler]] of sorts.''
*'''Edward:''' ''And how is your wife these days, Captain Rogers? Is she, ah, here in [[Havana]]?''
*'''Woodes:''' ''I trust she's well. But I wouldn't know. I have been in [[Madagascar]] some fourteen months, [[Bounty hunter|hunting pirates]]. It took some work to dislodge the criminals [[Libertalia|there]], but we managed it. In future, I hope to use these same tactics throughout the [[Caribbean|West Indies]].''
*'''Edward:''' ''And how did you deal with their kind?''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Very simply. Most [[Piracy|pirates]] are as ignorant as apes. I merely offered them a choice... take a pardon and return to England penniless but free men, or be [[Hanging|hanged]] by the neck until dead.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah, I imagine [[Nassau]] would be your next target?''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Very astute, Duncan. Indeed.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Best of luck with that.''
[[File:Mister Walpole I Presume 6.png|thumb|250px|Edward giving the blood vial to Torres]]They arrived at an inner garden terrace, where Laureano sat in a chair reading a book while a sevant poured him [[tea]].
*'''Woodes:''' ''[[Grand Master of the Templar Order|Grand Master]] Torres. Mister Duncan Walpole has arrived.''
*'''Laureano:''' Sí... ''(Indeed...) You were expected one week ago.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Apologies, governor. My [[ship]] was set upon by pirates. We were scuttled. I arrived only yesterday.''
*'''Laureano:''' ''Unfortunate. Forgive my caution, but were you able to salvage from these pirates the items you promised me?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah, yes Sir, I was.''
Edward presented him with the [[map]]s and the [[blood vial]].
*'''Laureano:''' Increíble ''(Incredible.) The Assassins have more resources than I had imagined but... not nearly enough to deter us. It is a pleasure to meet you at last, Duncan. You are most welcome. Come gentlemen. We have much to discuss. ''
The men entered the mansion and continued their conversation at a table under a pavilion. Edward circled the table as if to gain alternate views of the map and sketches on it, but secretly [[pickpocketing|pickpocketed]] the men.
*'''Laureano:''' ''Convened at last. And in such continental company... England, France, [[Spain]]... [[Civilian|Citizens]] of sad and corrupted empires. But you are Templars now. The secret and [[New World Order|true legislators]] of the [[Earth|world]]. Please, hold out your hands. Mark and remember our purpose. To guide all wayward souls 'til they reach a quiet road. To guide all wayward desire 'til impassioned hearts are cooled. To guide all wayward minds to safe and sober thought. By the [[Father of Understanding]]'s Light, let our work now begin. Decades ago, the Counsel entrusted me with the task of locating in these West Indies a forgotten place our [[Isu|precursors]] once called the [[Observatory (Isu)|Observatory]]. See here... Look upon these images and commit them to memory. They tell a very old and important story. For two decades now I have endeavored to locate this Observatory... a place rumored to contain a [[Crystal Skulls|tool]] of incredible utility and power. It houses a kind of armillary sphere, if you like. A device that would grant us the power to locate and monitor EVERY man and woman on Earth, whatever their location. Only imagine what it would mean to have such a power. With this device, there would be no secrets among men. No lies. No trickery. Only justice. Pure justice. This is the Observatory's promise. And we must take it for our own.''
*'''Woodes:''' ''Do we know its whereabouts?''
*'''Laureano:''' ''We will soon. For in our custody is the one man who does. A man named [[Bartholomew Roberts|Roberts]], once called a [[Sage]]. ''
*'''Julien:''' ''It has been [[Thomas Kavanagh, Jr.|forty-five years]] since anyone has seen a true Sage. Can you be sure this one is authentic?''
*'''Laureano:''' ''We are confident he is.''
[[File:Mister Walpole I Presume 11.png|thumb|250px|Edward and the Templars toasting their scheme]]
*'''Woodes:''' ''The Assassins will come for him.''
*'''Laureano:''' ''Indeed they will. But... thanks to Duncan and the information he has delivered, the Assassins won't be a problem for much longer.''
He picked up the crystal cube and stepped away to a smaller table with cups on it. Walking the long way around the table to join him, Edward quickly palmed and folded an {{Wiki|armillary sphere}} drawing.
*'''Laureano''': ''All will be made clear tomorrow, gentlemen, when you meet the Sage for yourselves. Until then... let us drink. Let us find the Observatory together. For with its power, kings will fall, clergy will cower, and the hearts and minds of the world will be ours.''
The men drank together.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Laureano:''' ''Rest well, Duncan. Tomorrow the [[Spanish Treasure Fleet|Treasure Fleet]] arrives, and with it your reward. After which, we will discuss further schemes. ''
*'''Edward:''' ''I look forward to it.''
*'''Laureano:''' ¡Excelente! ''(Excellent!) Meet me down at the docks, first thing tomorrow morning.''
Edward left the governor's mansion.
*'''Guard:''' ''Governor Torres requests your presence at the docks near the [[Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta|Castillo]], first thing tomorrow morning.''
|-|Resynced=
Edward left the governor's mansion.
*'''Guard:''' ''Governor Torres requests your presence at the docks near the [[Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta|Castillo]], first thing tomorrow morning.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I'd like to have a closer look at this strange diagram.''
Edward returned to the tavern.
*'''Bartender:''' ''You! Not again.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Have you any room? I can pay.''
*'''Bartender:''' ''What? And have another brawl wreck the place? Out with you!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Your loss, mate. I know where to find some privacy. What he can't see won't trouble him.''
Edward made his way to the roof, where he saw a monkey.
*'''Edward:''' ''They've no room for a scoundrel like you either eh?''
He sat down on a bench and looked at the diagram.
*'''Edward:''' ''This could be the key to my fortune.''
The next morning, Edward woke up on the bench.
</tabber>

==Outcome==
Edward learned of the existence of the Templars and a new appointment with the governor was made.

==Behind the scenes==
The title of the memory is a reference to the explorer [[Henry Morton Stanley]], famed for reportedly asking, "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?", upon meeting fellow explorer [[David Livingstone]] in the [[Tanzania]]n town of [[Ujiji]] on the shores of Lake Tanganyika on 10 November 1871. Livingstone was lost for years and Stanley was sent by the ''{{Wiki|New York Herald}}'' to find him.

If the memory is replayed, Edward already has Hidden Blades equipped on his wrists.

==Description==
Returning from the fight in the bar, Edward discovered the maps and the [[blood vial]] he took from [[Duncan Walpole]] had been confiscated by the [[Spain|Spanish]] [[soldier]]s, and set out to recover them.

==Dialogue==
Edward returned to [[Stede Bonnet]].
*'''Edward:''' ''Sorry about the swift exit. Bit of a misunderstanding.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''One heaped upon another.''
Bonnet turned to reveal his beaten and bloodied face.
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah, [[Jesus of Nazareth|Jaysus]]. I'm sorry mate, this is my doing. I'm only trying to keep these Spanish eyes off me.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, it's no bother. Regrettably, these soldiers confiscated my [[sugar]]. And your dispatches.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Damn! And where've they gone?''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I haven't the foggiest idea, I'm afraid. I suspect those chaps might but my Spanish is'' muy malidad ''(very evil), so I'd—I'd rather not ask.''
<tabber>

</tabber>
*'''Bonnet:''' ''And my sugar?''
*'''Edward:''' ''What, in my drawers? We'll see what happens.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
[[File:And My Sugar 3.png|thumb|250px|Edward and Bonnet following the guards]]
Edward and Bonnet followed two Spanish guards.
*'''Bonnet:''' ''You don't mind me tagging along, do you?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not if you keep quiet and stay out of sight. Bonnet!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I believe I'm getting the hang of this!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Quiet!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I fear they're on to us!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hang back!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh. Perhaps we should split up to confuse them.''
*'''Edward:''' ''It's the best idea you've had today.''
*'''Merchant:''' Buenos dias, señores ''(Hello, sirs). You're late.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes sir.'' Si. ''(Yes). We are very sorry. Our [[Captain]] delayed us.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''This would be Captain [[Mendoza]]?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, Sir. He is very excited to meet you. Only he must be present for a... a... a hanging,'' señor ''(sir).''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Hanging? Ah... love a good hanging!''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, very nice. If we hear the bell we may go, if you like!''
*'''Merchant:''' ''I'd love to. Especially, if Captain Mendoza is pulling the trap. The man owes me money for the [[Slavery|slaves]] I sold him.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Of course, Sir. Captain Mendoza is happy to pay you. We have goods to sell. Sugars and such.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Excellent.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''The bell,'' Señor! ''(Sir!) The hanging will be started soon!''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Well, let's not dilly-dally!''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, Sir. We go!''
Edward [[Eavesdropping|eavesdropped]] on a conversation.
[[File:And My Sugar 11.png|thumb|250px|Edward tailing the guard and the merchant]]
*'''Merchant:''' ''How long will this hanging take, man? I don't mean to hang about all day for the captain.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Quick as anything, sir. Captain Mendoza needs only to hang the man, then he will deliver your payment.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''I don't want reales, mind. I want goods. Things I can sell. Tobacco. [[Rum]]. Sugar.''
*'''Soldier:''' Si, si! ''(Yes, Yes!) We have much fine sugar. Crates we took off a fat [[United Kingdom|Englishman]] last night.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Englishman?''
*'''Soldier:''' Si. ''(Yes.) Sugar from [[Barbados]]. Very fine. We hold it in the [[Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta|Castillo]] after the man started the fight last night. He ran, left his sugar behind. Very fine.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Well that's a start. Shall I accompany him to the Castillo?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''No sir. Captain Mendoza will have it sent to you, I believe. You will see.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Good lord! Is that big brute your Captain Mendoza?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''No sir. He is [[El Tiburón]]. El Tiburón, Governor [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala|Torres]]' man.''
Edward tailed Captain Mendoza and stole his key, after which he snuck into the [[fort]] lockup and retrieved his maps.
|-|Resynced=
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''We, ah... stashed their goods to sell. The sugar and such. Hey Carlos. You hear that Captain Mendoza ordered us to take the fat Englishman's goods last night?''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ''I've been briefed on the matter. The Captain will inspect them after the hanging. I believe a buyer has been arranged.''
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''That was fast. And when is the hanging?''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ''The bell! It's starting!''
*'''Edward:''' ''This Captain Mendoza plans to move our goods. Can't have that.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I've never seen a hanging before. Barbaric! We are going to watch, aren't we?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not this time, mate. Better if you stay out of sight.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Of course, of course. Someone needs to be at the ship, should they return the goods.''
*'''Civilian 1:''' ''They say this pirate sank one of Mendoza's ships.''
*'''Civilian 2:''' ''I just hope he wasn't tortured before his death sentence.''
*'''Town Crier:''' ''Come now to witness the final moments of notorious pirate, Samuel Calstock. (Come all to witness the final moments of notorious pirate, Samuel Calstock). Our most distinguished and venerable Captain Mendoza will preside over the execution. (Our most distinguished and venerable Captain Mendoza will preside over the execution.)''
*'''Soldier 3:''' ''The last hanging I saw was a big old sheep-shearing Welshman. Popped his head right off his neck.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''A hanging is all well and good. I've come for Captain Mendoza. He wouldn't be dodging his debts now, would he?''
*'''Soldier 3:''' ''No, no. The man on the platform there is the Captain.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''Ah. Then let the show begin!''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''For the crimes of forgery, arson, [[smuggling]], theft, and murder, all in the name of piracy, Samuel Calstock, you are hereby sentenced to be hanged by the neck until dead. Do you have any last words?''
*'''Calstock:''' ''Like many of you, I came to the West Indies for a better life. It is my view...''
Mendoza pulled the lever opening the trap do under the pirate, cutting off his last words and his life.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Let it be known that we offer no quarter to pirates and smugglers in Havana.''
Mendoza came down from the scaffold and spoke to the slaver.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Ah, Señor. You've come for the sugar.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''I've come to see your debts paid.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Si. Indeed. Follow me.''
The two left the site of the execution.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Have you enjoyed your time in Havana?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''I am only here to collect what's owed. I too have debtors, captain.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Surely you have time for the local girls and local drink, Señor?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''A public hanging is enough fun for one day. I'm told there is a curious [[Blood vial|bauble]] amongst the cargo you seized.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''In truth, I cannot say what it is. But if you have more slaves to trade, it could be yours. You will see it for yourself soon enough, Señor. The [[Castillo de la Real Fuerza|Castillo]] is just ahead.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The Castillo? I'll just slip in and out with my goods.''
*'''Soldier 4:''' ''If anyone got into the Castillo they'd never reach the top alive.''
*'''Soldier 5:''' ''The Captain says he wants double guard on the upper store room, so that's what we do. Don't think so much.''
*'''Edward:''' ''My stuff is nearby.''
Edward approached Mendoza and the slaver.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''We have more sugar than we owe, that is certain, Señor. Perhaps you will want that as well?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''Perhaps. But my interests lie with this bauble you've been teasing. Let's see it.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''It is safely locked away. Let us settle the sugar first.''
*'''Edward:''' ''This Mendoza has a key that I should like to get my hands on.''
Edward got the key from Mendoza.
*'''Edward:''' ''Found a key. Let's see if it works.''
Edward entered the locked store room and retrieved the dispatches and item he had taken from Duncan Walpole. He looked at the several boxes of Stede's sugar, then left without it.
*'''Edward:''' ''Here's my goods. Time to tell Bonnet the bad news.''
</tabber>
Edward then returned to Bonnet.
[[File:And My Sugar 9.png|thumb|250px|Edward compensating Bonnet for the lost sugar]]
*'''Edward:''' ''Sorry about the sugar. I've only one pair of hands.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, it's no great loss. Uh, I've got a... plenty of cargo here to make a profit of my trip.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Will you stay here long?''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''For a few weeks, yes. Then back to Barbados, to the tedium of domesticity.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Don't settle for tedium. Sail for [[Nassau]]. Live life as you see fit.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Haven't I heard that Nassau is crawling with [[Piracy|pirates]]? Seems a very tawdry place.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not tawdry. Liberated.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, God, that would be an adventure. But no, no... I'm a husband and a father, I have responsibilities. Life can't be all pleasure and distraction, Duncan.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hey, ah, Bonnet. The name's Edward, in truth. Duncan's only a handle.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Ah... a secret name for your secret meeting with the governor.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The governor, right. I think I've kept him waiting long enough.''

==Outcome==
Edward recovered the maps and the blood vial from the fort.

'''...And My Sugar?''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Edward Kenway]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived by [[Noob|a research analyst]] at [[Abstergo Entertainment]] in 2013 through the [[Animus|Animus Omega]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

==Description==
Returning from the fight in the bar, Edward discovered the maps and the [[blood vial]] he took from [[Duncan Walpole]] had been confiscated by the [[Spain|Spanish]] [[soldier]]s, and set out to recover them.

==Dialogue==
Edward returned to [[Stede Bonnet]].
*'''Edward:''' ''Sorry about the swift exit. Bit of a misunderstanding.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''One heaped upon another.''
Bonnet turned to reveal his beaten and bloodied face.
*'''Edward:''' ''Ah, [[Jesus of Nazareth|Jaysus]]. I'm sorry mate, this is my doing. I'm only trying to keep these Spanish eyes off me.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, it's no bother. Regrettably, these soldiers confiscated my [[sugar]]. And your dispatches.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Damn! And where've they gone?''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I haven't the foggiest idea, I'm afraid. I suspect those chaps might but my Spanish is'' muy malidad ''(very evil), so I'd—I'd rather not ask.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Edward:''' ''Shit. All right. Come on, let's follow 'em and recover my maps.''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Edward:''' ''Shit. Come on, let's give ear to their talk, and recover my maps.''
</tabber>
*'''Bonnet:''' ''And my sugar?''
*'''Edward:''' ''What, in my drawers? We'll see what happens.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
[[File:And My Sugar 3.png|thumb|250px|Edward and Bonnet following the guards]]
Edward and Bonnet followed two Spanish guards.
*'''Bonnet:''' ''You don't mind me tagging along, do you?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not if you keep quiet and stay out of sight. Bonnet!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I believe I'm getting the hang of this!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Quiet!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I fear they're on to us!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hang back!''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh. Perhaps we should split up to confuse them.''
*'''Edward:''' ''It's the best idea you've had today.''
*'''Merchant:''' Buenos dias, señores ''(Hello, sirs). You're late.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes sir.'' Si. ''(Yes). We are very sorry. Our [[Captain]] delayed us.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''This would be Captain [[Mendoza]]?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, Sir. He is very excited to meet you. Only he must be present for a... a... a hanging,'' señor ''(sir).''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Hanging? Ah... love a good hanging!''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, very nice. If we hear the bell we may go, if you like!''
*'''Merchant:''' ''I'd love to. Especially, if Captain Mendoza is pulling the trap. The man owes me money for the [[Slavery|slaves]] I sold him.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Of course, Sir. Captain Mendoza is happy to pay you. We have goods to sell. Sugars and such.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Excellent.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''The bell,'' Señor! ''(Sir!) The hanging will be started soon!''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Well, let's not dilly-dally!''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Yes, Sir. We go!''
Edward [[Eavesdropping|eavesdropped]] on a conversation.
[[File:And My Sugar 11.png|thumb|250px|Edward tailing the guard and the merchant]]
*'''Merchant:''' ''How long will this hanging take, man? I don't mean to hang about all day for the captain.''
*'''Soldier:''' ''Quick as anything, sir. Captain Mendoza needs only to hang the man, then he will deliver your payment.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''I don't want reales, mind. I want goods. Things I can sell. Tobacco. [[Rum]]. Sugar.''
*'''Soldier:''' Si, si! ''(Yes, Yes!) We have much fine sugar. Crates we took off a fat [[United Kingdom|Englishman]] last night.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Englishman?''
*'''Soldier:''' Si. ''(Yes.) Sugar from [[Barbados]]. Very fine. We hold it in the [[Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta|Castillo]] after the man started the fight last night. He ran, left his sugar behind. Very fine.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Well that's a start. Shall I accompany him to the Castillo?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''No sir. Captain Mendoza will have it sent to you, I believe. You will see.''
*'''Merchant:''' ''Good lord! Is that big brute your Captain Mendoza?''
*'''Soldier:''' ''No sir. He is [[El Tiburón]]. El Tiburón, Governor [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala|Torres]]' man.''
Edward tailed Captain Mendoza and stole his key, after which he snuck into the [[fort]] lockup and retrieved his maps.
|-|Resynced=
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''We, ah... stashed their goods to sell. The sugar and such. Hey Carlos. You hear that Captain Mendoza ordered us to take the fat Englishman's goods last night?''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ''I've been briefed on the matter. The Captain will inspect them after the hanging. I believe a buyer has been arranged.''
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''That was fast. And when is the hanging?''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ''The bell! It's starting!''
*'''Edward:''' ''This Captain Mendoza plans to move our goods. Can't have that.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''I've never seen a hanging before. Barbaric! We are going to watch, aren't we?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not this time, mate. Better if you stay out of sight.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Of course, of course. Someone needs to be at the ship, should they return the goods.''
*'''Civilian 1:''' ''They say this pirate sank one of Mendoza's ships.''
*'''Civilian 2:''' ''I just hope he wasn't tortured before his death sentence.''
*'''Town Crier:''' ''Come now to witness the final moments of notorious pirate, Samuel Calstock. (Come all to witness the final moments of notorious pirate, Samuel Calstock). Our most distinguished and venerable Captain Mendoza will preside over the execution. (Our most distinguished and venerable Captain Mendoza will preside over the execution.)''
*'''Soldier 3:''' ''The last hanging I saw was a big old sheep-shearing Welshman. Popped his head right off his neck.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''A hanging is all well and good. I've come for Captain Mendoza. He wouldn't be dodging his debts now, would he?''
*'''Soldier 3:''' ''No, no. The man on the platform there is the Captain.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''Ah. Then let the show begin!''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''For the crimes of forgery, arson, [[smuggling]], theft, and murder, all in the name of piracy, Samuel Calstock, you are hereby sentenced to be hanged by the neck until dead. Do you have any last words?''
*'''Calstock:''' ''Like many of you, I came to the West Indies for a better life. It is my view...''
Mendoza pulled the lever opening the trap do under the pirate, cutting off his last words and his life.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Let it be known that we offer no quarter to pirates and smugglers in Havana.''
Mendoza came down from the scaffold and spoke to the slaver.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Ah, Señor. You've come for the sugar.''
*'''Slaver:''' ''I've come to see your debts paid.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Si. Indeed. Follow me.''
The two left the site of the execution.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Have you enjoyed your time in Havana?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''I am only here to collect what's owed. I too have debtors, captain.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''Surely you have time for the local girls and local drink, Señor?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''A public hanging is enough fun for one day. I'm told there is a curious [[Blood vial|bauble]] amongst the cargo you seized.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''In truth, I cannot say what it is. But if you have more slaves to trade, it could be yours. You will see it for yourself soon enough, Señor. The [[Castillo de la Real Fuerza|Castillo]] is just ahead.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The Castillo? I'll just slip in and out with my goods.''
*'''Soldier 4:''' ''If anyone got into the Castillo they'd never reach the top alive.''
*'''Soldier 5:''' ''The Captain says he wants double guard on the upper store room, so that's what we do. Don't think so much.''
*'''Edward:''' ''My stuff is nearby.''
Edward approached Mendoza and the slaver.
*'''Mendoza:''' ''We have more sugar than we owe, that is certain, Señor. Perhaps you will want that as well?''
*'''Slaver:''' ''Perhaps. But my interests lie with this bauble you've been teasing. Let's see it.''
*'''Mendoza:''' ''It is safely locked away. Let us settle the sugar first.''
Edward got the key from Mendoza.
*'''Edward:''' ''Found a key. Let's see if it works.''
Edward entered the locked store room and retrieved the dispatches and item he had taken from Duncan Walpole. He looked at the several boxes of Stede's sugar, then left without it.
*'''Edward:''' ''Here's my goods. Time to tell Bonnet the bad news.''
</tabber>
Edward then returned to Bonnet.
[[File:And My Sugar 9.png|thumb|250px|Edward compensating Bonnet for the lost sugar]]
*'''Edward:''' ''Sorry about the sugar. I've only one pair of hands.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, it's no great loss. Uh, I've got a... plenty of cargo here to make a profit of my trip.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Will you stay here long?''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''For a few weeks, yes. Then back to Barbados, to the tedium of domesticity.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Don't settle for tedium. Sail for [[Nassau]]. Live life as you see fit.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Haven't I heard that Nassau is crawling with [[Piracy|pirates]]? Seems a very tawdry place.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Not tawdry. Liberated.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Oh, God, that would be an adventure. But no, no... I'm a husband and a father, I have responsibilities. Life can't be all pleasure and distraction, Duncan.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hey, ah, Bonnet. The name's Edward, in truth. Duncan's only a handle.''
*'''Bonnet:''' ''Ah... a secret name for your secret meeting with the governor.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The governor, right. I think I've kept him waiting long enough.''

==Outcome==
Edward recovered the maps and the blood vial from the fort.

'''Lively Havana''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Edward Kenway]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived by [[Noob|a research analyst]] in 2013 at [[Abstergo Entertainment]] through the [[Animus|Animus Omega]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

==Description==
Having arrived in [[Havana]], Edward followed [[Stede Bonnet]] to a meeting, hoping to find a place to stay.

==Dialogue==
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah... lively Havana! I've been here once before. It was a truly awe-ful pleasure.''
*'''Edward:''' ''See someone you know?''
*'''Stede:''' ''No, no, no. Just putting on a friendly face. I shouldn't want to be mistaken for a [[Piracy|pirate]] again.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Right. Flash rogue like yourself must be cautious.''
*'''Stede:''' ''It's mad to think [[Spain]] and [[United Kingdom|England]] were at war [[War of the Spanish Succession|two years ago]], isn't it? Here I am, bartering with Spaniards like they were my cousins. Something wrong, Duncan?''
*'''Edward:''' ''No. It's nothing. Sand in my hampers. So where's the best squat in town? I'm dying for a quick kip. Or a siesta, should I say?''
[[File:Lively Havana 2.png|thumb|250px|Edward motioning Stede to lead]]
*'''Stede:''' ''Um... I'm just headed to a ... a [[Tavern|public house]] now to meet some [[merchant]]s. I could... I could show you the way.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well, lead on.''
*'''Stede:''' ''I hope you'll tarry a bit while I conduct my meeting. It would be a great relief to have a man of your stature nearby. In case of a... misunderstanding.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I can hang about. I might have a drink.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Splendid. A drink.''
Edward and Stede walked by some {{Wiki|Gibbeting|gibbet cages}} with skeletons inside.
*'''Stede:''' ''Gracious! What a revolting sight!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well they don't take kindly to pirates here, do they? Wonder how many stolen [[real]]es bought these men this perch?''
They walked by a group of [[Courtesans|dancers]].
*'''Edward:''' Hola ''(Hello) ladies.''
*'''Stede:''' ''You don't know these women, do you?''
*'''Edward:''' '' No, they charge money for that kind of privilege. Few dozen reales for every hour of knowing. Keen to meet them?''
*'''Stede:''' ''No! Goodness no. I am a married man!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Married men are their forte, mate.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah! Here's a [[General stores|purveyor of personal defences]]! I should acquire a blade for myself, Duncan. Just as you have.''
*'''Edward:''' ''This rusty razor's nothing to admire.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Even so, I appear a mere kitten walking so close upon you. Perhaps a [[Short blade|small dagger]] would suit me. Let's see what he's selling.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Maybe I'll buy a [[sword]] too, we'll both jump rank.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah, we'll be quite the pair, you and I. Twin devils!''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Stede:''' ''I should acquire a blade for myself, Duncan. Just as you have. Perhaps a [[Short blade|small dagger]] would suit me. Oh, we'll be quite the pair, you and I! Twin devils!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Maybe I'll buy a [[sword]] too, we'll both jump rank.''
</tabber>
*'''Edward:''' ''Lend us a few reales then. I did save your skin.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah, uh... of course!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Cheers.''
Edward [[Economic system|bought]] a [[British Cutlasses|new pair of swords]].
*'''Edward:''' ''That's a better fit for me. How'd you fare?''
*'''Stede:''' ''I had only enough for a small knife, sadly. Still, it'll do in a pinch. Oh, puffer-duff... I have led us astray, Duncan.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Oh, no matter. I'll get us a better view. What are we looking for?''
*'''Stede:''' ''Uh, a tavern! With a sort of courtyard interior.''
Edward [[Freerunning|climbed]] a [[church]] tower.
*'''Stede:''' ''My goodness, you are an agile chap!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Every finger's a [[fish]]hook! That's how you tell a true sailor.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah ha! Yes. A fine way to put it.''
[[File:Lively Havana 3.png|thumb|250px|Edward surveying the area]]
Edward found a [[Viewpoint|high spot]] and located the tavern.
*'''Edward:''' ''I think I see the place! We're not far.''
Stede was set upon by a [[Pickpocketing|pickpocket]].
*'''Stede:''' ''Ahh! Stop!''
*'''Robber:''' ''Ah!'' ¡No te resistas, gordinflón! ''(Stop struggling, fatman!)''
*'''Stede:''' ¡Para! ¡Para! ''(Stop! Stop!) Oh! He's robbed me blind! Good [[Christianity|God]], what do I do?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hang tight!''
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh, I can't breathe. I think my heart has stopped.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Stop or I'll break your knees when I catch you! I'm close at heel, shitbird! Here I come! Don't make me chase you into the harbor!''
Edward chased and tackled the pickpocket.
*'''Edward:''' ''You robbed the wrong man, mate. A fellow with dangerous friends.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
|-|Resynced=
*'''Edward:''' ''That's a heavy purse, Mister Bonnet.''
</tabber>
Edward returned to Bonnet.
*'''Stede:''' ''Duncan, by [[Jupiter|Jove]], you're alive.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Of course I am. That [[Thief|filch]] was no fuss.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
They arrived at the tavern.
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah, we've arrived.''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah! Did you catch that rogue?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Aye. And I'll be buying the first round with the money I pulled off him.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh! Ah... wonderful. First my ship then my purse. It's twice you've saved me now, Duncan.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Don't forget your skin, I saved that too.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Thrice then! Very good!''
A civilian pushed a loaded cart into position.
*'''Civilian:''' ''Out of the way!''
*'''Stede:''' ''My word! Havana grows livelier all the time.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Each funster we meet makes me more impatient to drink. Come on.''
*'''Stede:''' ''This is the spot.''
*'''Edward:''' ''The sea has much to offer, but a popping tavern always draws me back to shore.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Popping... yes. I would normally prefer to conduct my affairs somewhere quieter...''
They entered the tavern.
</tabber>
*'''Edward:''' ''Take your time. I'll be just here.''
*'''Patron:''' ''Fancy meeting a [[Wales|Welshman]] deep in {{Wiki|List of ethnic slurs#D|Dago}} country. I'm English meself. Biding my time 'til the next war calls me to service.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Lucky King [[George I of Great Britain|George]] having a piss-pot like you flying his flag.''
[[File:Lively Havana 5.png|thumb|250px|A patron accusing Edward of piracy]]
*'''Patron:''' ''Oy! Skulk! I seen your face before. You's mates with them pirates down in [[Nassau]].''
*'''Edward:''' ''Shut your fucking gob or I fill it with shot. You hear me?''
*'''Patron:''' ''Edward, is it?''
Edward headbutted the man, then kneed him in the groin and tossed him onto a table, shattering it on impact and knocking him out.
*'''Man:''' ''You bastard!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hey, I warned him...''
Another patron swung his [[fist]] into Edward's face, starting a bar brawl.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Edward:''' ''You want a dust-up, I'll give you one. Come on lads! I've seen bigger arms on a bird! One more! Come on!''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Edward:''' ''You'll have to hit harder than that! One more! Come on! Come on lads! I've seen bigger arms on a bird! You want a dust-up, I'll give you one. I'm still standing, lads!''
</tabber>
Several [[Spanish Empire|Spanish]] [[Soldier|guards]] stormed into the tavern.
*'''Soldier 1:''' ¡Despejad la zona! ''(Clear the road!)''
*'''Citizen 1:''' ¡Vienen soldados! ''(Soldiers are coming!)''
*'''Citizen 2:''' ¡Corre! ''(Run!)''
*'''Stede:''' ''You—You're not leaving me?''
*'''Edward:''' ''I'll catch you up!''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ¡[[Dog|Perro]] inglés! ''(English dog!)''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
Edward escaped from the Spanish soldiers.
|-|Resynced=
Edward threw a smoke bomb and left the tavern.
*'''Edward:''' ''I've had all I can drink at present, lads. You go on without me. Look again, lobcocks.''
Edward hid from the Spanish soldiers.
*'''Edward:''' ''Hopefully Stede wasn't pinched by those guards.''
</tabber>
==Outcome==
After rearming himself with new swords and scouting the area, Edward stopped Stede from being robbed, but then left him in a tavern to escape from Spanish soldiers following a bar brawl.

'''Edward Kenway''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Edward Kenway]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived first by [[Noob|a research analyst]] at [[Abstergo Entertainment]] in 2013 through the [[Animus|Animus Omega]],<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref> and then by [[Animus EGO user|another user]] as an {{Wiki|Generative AI|altered representation}} through the Animus EGO.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced]]''</ref>

==Description==
After an attack on [[Jacobite|the ship]] he was aboard, Edward found himself stranded on a [[Cape Bonavista|deserted island]] with an [[Assassins|Assassin]].

==Dialogue==
Amidst a heavy storm and enemy [[cannon]]fire, Edward rolled a cannon into its position on the deck.
*'''Crewman:''' ''Hold fast! She's on us!''
A cannonball struck behind Edward, knocking him down and killing the crewman. Kenway stood up, extracted wood shrapnel that had embedded in his right arm, and returned to his cannon.
*'''Edward:''' ''Can you see her?''
Edward looked at the [[HMS Intrigue|approaching ship]] and saw an Assassin casually walking on a spar behind the {{Wiki|jib}} and along the {{Wiki|forecastle}}.
[[File:ACBFR Edward Kenway (memory) 02.webp|250px|thumb|right|The Assassin on the HMS Intrigue]]
*'''Edward:''' ''Man the cannons!''
He ran aft to the {{Wiki|quarterdeck}}, where [[Captain]] [[Abel Bramah]] stood by the helm.
*'''Abel:''' ''Our helmsman's dead! Someone take the wheel! Kenway! Take the bloody wheel! [[Hughes]] is dead, Kenway! You'll have to steer this bastard!''
Edward took the wheel and attacked smaller [[gunboat]]s that accompanied the larger [[ship]].
*'''Abel:''' ''Uncork the cannons, lad! Unload all the shot we have! Fire on those bastards! We'll give a good {{Wiki|broadside}}. Ready!''
Lightning hit the enemy ship and made it vulnerable.
*'''Abel:''' ''Bring us close, Kenway! We can scuttle her! ''
Edward got in close to the ship and sank it. As the crew celebrated, the [[gunpowder]] magazine caught fire.
*'''Crewman:''' ''The magazine! It's going up!''
Kenway and some crew ran to deal with the fires, but a larger explosion forced them back. Abel shoved them back even as the fire continued to grow.
*'''Abel:''' ''Douse the flames! Get in there, you mongrel!''
The Assassin appeared and [[Assassination|assassinated]] him, with Edward being the only witness. They stared each other down for a moment before both were blown overboard by the magazine explosion. Edward landed in the water, the impact rendering him unconscious as he began sinking. He remembered a conversation that he had with his wife [[Caroline Scott-Kenway|Caroline Scott]] while they lay in bed, some years earlier.
[[File:Edward Kenway Memory 7.png|thumb|250px|Edward with Caroline]]
*'''Caroline:''' ''Is it dangerous? Edward?''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hm?''
*'''Caroline:''' ''[[Privateer]]ing. Is it dangerous?''
Edward smiled.
*'''Edward:''' ''Wouldn't pay so nice if it weren't.''
Caroline frowned.
*'''Caroline:''' ''Why not sail with the [[George I of Great Britain|king]]'s [[Royal Navy|navy]]? Earn a proper wage. Sail under gentlemen.''
Edward scowled and looked at her.
*'''Edward:''' ''Sod the navy's gentlemen. For every shilling I'd earn, the captain'd get six hundred. That's no way to earn a fortune.''
*'''Caroline:''' ''We don't need a fortune.''
Edward rose to a sitting position on the edge of the bed.
*'''Edward:''' ''It's not about need, Caroline. I want food that don't make me sick. I want walls that hold back the wind. I want a decent life.''
He looked back at her. She looked down in contemplation of his idea.
*'''Caroline:''' ''H-how long would you be gone with these privateers?''
Edward turned to sit facing her.
*'''Edward:''' ''A year, I reckon. Two at the most.''
*'''Caroline:''' ''All right. No more than two... promise me...''
Edward's mouth flattened in a grim line and he looked down, unable to reply. The flashback ended and Edward woke up drowning deep in the water, surrounded by dead crew and wreckage from both ships. He swam up to the surface and towards the beach.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
|-|Resynced=
He looked at the burning debris around him.
*'''Edward:''' ''Sod it.''
There was another explosion from the wreck.
*'''Edward:''' ''Damn!''
He was forced to dive under some debris to avoid burning.
</tabber>
He stumbled to the shoreline, dropped to his knees, and rolled to his back in exhaustion. He laughed looking up at the sky, amused at his survival. The injured Assassin dragged himself up from the waters, his left hand trying to staunch heavy bleeding from his gut.
[[File:Edward Kenway Memory 10.png|thumb|250px|Edward haggling with Walpole]]
*'''Edward:''' ''Was it good for you as well?''
*'''[[Duncan Walpole|Duncan]]:''' ''[[Havana]]... I must get to Havana.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well, I'll just build us another ship, will I?''
*'''Duncan:''' ''I can pay you. Isn't that the sound you [[Piracy|pirates]] like best? One hundred [[escudo]]s.''
Edward slowly raised himself to sit up. He grabbed a washed up [[alcohol]] bottle and looked inside, but seeing it was empty, he tossed it aside.
*'''Edward:''' ''Keep talking.''
*'''Duncan:''' ''Will you or won't you!''
Edward rose to his feet and stood over the man, reaching for his belt.
*'''Edward:''' ''You don't have that [[gold]] on you now, do you?''
The man swiftly drew a flintlock [[pistol]] with his right hand. Surprised, Edward stumbled back to land on the sand while the man struggled to his feet and kept his weapon trained on him.
*'''Duncan:''' ''Bloody fucking pirates!''
He attempted to shoot Edward but failed as the [[gunpowder]] was wet. Seeing his weapon was useless, the man discarded it and ran off into the jungle. Edward laughed, stood up, and prepared to give chase.
*'''Edward:''' ''I am on to you, [[wikt:sneaksby|sneaksby]]!''
He [[Freerunning|climbed]] tree trunks in pursuit, navigating above the jungle floor.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Edward:''' ''Come on, mate! We're off to a bad start! It's a hundred {{Wiki|League (unit)|leagues}} or more to Havana! Will you walk that distance?''
Edward climbed up a series of ladders and wood huts to a tower [[viewpoint]] and looked for the Assassin.
*'''Edward:''' ''Posh git. Where's he running to?''
*'''Duncan:''' ''Follow and I'll kill you!''
Edward saw the man leap from a hut to a tower and then perform a [[Leap of Faith]] to the waters below.
*'''Edward:''' ''We could work together on this!''
He copied the man's actions and continued his chase.
*'''Duncan:''' ''Keep your distance!''
The man shot Edward, who chased him deeper into the jungle until they reached a cliffside clearing with low shrubs and wide puddles. Edward attacked him, and because of the man's severe injuries, he was easily defeated and killed.
|-|Resynced=
*'''Duncan:''' ''Follow and I'll kill you!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Come on, mate! We're off to a bad start! We could work together on this! It's a hundred leagues or more to Havana! Will you walk that distance?''
Edward saw the man perform a Leap of Faith from a simple wood tower. Edward climbed up a series of ladders and wood huts to the same tower and copied the Assassin's actions, landing in a [[hiding spot|pile of palm leaves]] and bolting out to continue his chase.
*'''Duncan:''' ''Keep your distance!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Posh git. Where's he running to?''
He crossed more raised huts and dove off into the waters below. Surfacing, he spotted the man exiting a small cave.
*'''Edward:''' ''Forget what I said. We can start over.''
*'''Duncan:''' ''Shove off, you [[vulture]].''
The man shot Edward, who took an alternate route deeper into the jungle along tree branches and toppled trunks.
*'''Edward:''' ''This one vanishes into shadow.''
He reached a small clearing filled calf-deep with water and with low shrubs. He looked around for his quarry, seeing no evidence of his passage. , The man activated his Hidden Blade from above and behind him, attempting to air-assassinate his intended target, but Edward noticed and dodged the attack, resulting in the Blades breaking upon hitting the ground and the man's stomach wound worsening. They both drew swords.
*'''Edward:''' ''Now we've drawn swords, mate. I'm beginning to think that you're not keen on my aid.''
*'''Duncan:''' ''My [[Assassin-Templar War|business]] bears greater purpose than a [[thief]] like you could comprehend.''
Edward attacked him.
*'''Duncan:''' ''I warned you.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Why the ill temper? Hiding something?''
Edward wounded the man further.
*'''Edward:''' ''We don't have to fight. Let's make a deal.''
*'''Duncan:''' ''Filthy cutpurse!''
He swung his blade in a large arc, straining his wounds and slowing him down.
*'''Edward:''' ''That looks painful.''
*'''Duncan:''' ''Die you leech!''
As Duncan blocked one sword with his arm, Edward stabbed him through the chest with the other, killing him.
</tabber>
Edward dragged the body to a rock and removed a pouch from the man's belt. Opening it, he withdrew a [[Blood vial|small glass cube]] and a letter from the Governor of [[Cuba]] [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala]].
[[File:Edward Kenway Memory 14.png|thumb|250px|Edward reading the letter]]
{{IUNote
|Text=Señor (Mr.) Duncan Walpole. I accept your most generous offer, and await your arrival with eagerness. If you truly possess the information [[Templars|we]] desire, we have the means to reward you handsomely. Though I will not know your face by sight, I believe I can recognize the costume made infamous by your secret order. Therefore, come to Havana in haste... And trust that you shall be welcomed as a [[West Indies Rite of the Templar Order|brother]]. Su más humilde servidor, el gobernador (Your most humble servant, Governor) Laureano Torres y Ayala.}}
Edward stripped the corpse of its robes, dragged it into the bush to obscure it from anyone, and donned the clothes himself. He inspected the set of [[Hidden Blade]]s, but being unskilled in their usage and seeing that they were irreparably damaged besides, he tossed them into the brush.
*'''Edward:''' ''Mr. Walpole... let's collect your reward.''
<tabber>
|-|Original=
Edward heard a [[Firearm|gunshot]] in the distance and investigated the source. Perching on a tree hanging off the cliff, he saw a ship in the bay.
*'''Edward:''' ''That [[schooner]]'ll do me just fine...''
|-|Resynced=
*'''Edward:''' ''Now to find my way off this bleedin' rock.''
Perching on a tree hanging off the cliff, he saw a ship in the bay.
*'''Edward:''' ''That schooner'll do me just fine... if only I can preserve some of its crew.''
</tabber>
He saw that a squad of [[British Army]] [[soldier]]s were holding a man and his crew hostage for questioning.
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''The Commodore's gone ahead to [[Kingston]]. We're to commandeer this lubber's ship and follow.''
*'''[[Stede Bonnet|Stede]]:''' ''S-sorry, uh, Kingston? No, no... our destination is Havana. I'm just a [[merchant]]—''
*'''Soldier 2:''' ''Quiet, you bleedin' pirate! You'll [[Hanging|hang]] for the mess you made out there.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Sir, I had nothing to do with this attack. My crew and I had merely anchored to water and resupply!''
Some of the crewmen attempted to escape.
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''Hold it! Stop them!''
The Redcoats shot the crewmen, killing them.
*'''Soldier 1:''' ''Give me one reason I shouldn't vent your skull.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Take my [[sugar]]! Take anything you like! I'll pay you! Anything you like! Oh [[Christianity|God]]. Oooooh God! Ahhh! Ah!''
Edward killed the British soldiers and rescued Stede. He helped him to his feet.
[[File:Edward Kenway Memory 24.png|thumb|250px|Stede thanking Edward for the rescue]]
*'''Stede:''' ''By God's grace, sir, you saved me. A profusion of thanks!''
Edward looked at the ship in the bay.
*'''Edward:''' ''Is that yours?''
Stede uneasily indicated the dead body beside him.
*'''Stede:''' ''It is my [[Revenge|vessel]], yes. But, ah... here lies its poor captain. And I have no art for sailing.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I can pilot her myself. No mind.''
*'''Stede:''' ''You don't mean to abscond with my ship, do you?''
Edward gaped, caught off-guard by the accusation, before smiling and evading the question.
*'''Edward:''' ''I'm Duncan. What's your name, friend?''
He stuck out his hand for shaking.
*'''Stede:''' ''Stede. Stede Bonnet.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Well Mister Bonnet, let this stay 'twixt us... but I am on a secret errand for His Majesty the King, God save him, and I must get to Havana with speed.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah... that is a relief, sir. Havana is also my destination. Our ways lie together!''
*'''Edward:''' ''Natural allies then.''
He turned around, drew a [[sword]], and used it to pry open a crate that he thought held loot, only to see nothing of value and close the lid.
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh, you put me at ease, sir. To think I took you for a pirate when you first appeared.''
Edward walked over to inspect another crate, with no luck.
*'''Edward:''' ''Did you?''
*'''Stede:''' ''Yes! You have an... uncommon way of handling yourself. Quick and easy, if I may say. Gave me quite a fright! But all things considered, I think it's turned out to be a rather fortuitous day, hasn't it?''
Edward started swimming towards the ship.
*'''Stede:''' ''Lacking a rowboat, I'm afraid we'll have to swim to my ship.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Hardly the worst thing to happen.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh... Oh, this is difficult. I should have taken the coat off!''
They swam to the ship.
<tabber>
|-|Original=
*'''Stede:''' ''Welcome aboard, Duncan. She's a modest schooner but well-suited to my purpose. Trafficking cargo from my [[plantation]] and such.''
He sat on an adjacent crate to Edward's right.
*'''Edward:''' ''She'll do fine. There's a strong wind now. Let's strike to full, shall we?''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah, there's a tug of the wind at my hair! I find a bracing comfort in the feel and smell of the ocean. The raw stink of... of possibility!''
*'''Edward:''' ''That's a top way of seeing it, mate.''
Edward sailed out of the bay.
*'''Stede:''' ''We've really opened it up now, haven't we! Those sailors were quite animated by the idea of pirates roaming these waters. Is it a real danger, do you suppose?''
[[File:Edward Kenway Memory 25.png|thumb|250px|Stede complimenting Edward]]
*'''Edward:''' ''A possibility. But most pirates stalk the windward passage between Cuba and [[Hispaniola]].''
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh, I see. Yes, that is a bustling strait. But I shouldn't worry about being waylaid by pirates, truth be told. My ship is small and I have nothing of immense value. Sugarcane and its yields, molasses, [[rum]], that sort of thing.''
*'''Edward:''' ''There's not a pirate living who'd turn his back on a keg of rum.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Well, yes... yes, I suppose that's true. You're a natural sailor, Duncan.''
Just as they left the bay, a [[whale]] jumped nearby.
|-|Resynced=
Stede spoke to the few crew that remained onboard.
*'''Stede:''' ''{{'}}Twas no thanks to you lot that I'm back. You can thank Duncan, here.''
He sat on a crate to Edward's right.
*'''Stede:''' ''Welcome aboard, Duncan. She's a modest schooner but well-suited to my purpose. Trafficking cargo from my plantation and such.''
*'''Edward:''' ''She'll do fine.''
*'''Stede:''' ''If you are so inclined, you may steer her yourself. My helmsman and quartermaster were among those killed.''
*'''Edward:''' ''Ready yourselves, lads. The [[Spanish Navy]] hunts in packs, and we make for Havana.''
*'''Sailor:''' ''Ahoy.''
[[File:ACBFR Edward Kenway (memory) 28.webp|thumb|250px|Bonnet complimenting Edward]]
*'''Edward:''' ''Has a good feel. We'll first strike to half-sail to get ourselves moving.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Ah, there's a tug of the wind at my hair! I find a bracing comfort in the feel and smell of the ocean. The raw stink of... of possibility!''
*'''Edward:''' ''That's a top way of seeing it, mate. There's a strong wind now. Let's strike to full, shall we?''
*'''Stede:''' ''We've really opened it up now, haven't we!''
A whale jumped near the ship.
*'''Stede:''' ''Oh! what a magnificent creature.''
</tabber>
The ship exited the bay into open waters. Stede got off his crate and walked behind Edward to the other side of the quarterdeck.
*'''Stede:''' ''You're a natural sailor, Duncan.''
*'''Edward:''' ''I did a decent trick at the helm some time ago. Two years before the mast as a privateer.''
*'''Stede:''' ''Dash my buttons! Your life seems a grand one, if I may say. So full of adventure! How marvelous.''
He leaned against the railing and looked out.
*'''Edward:''' ''I have seen my share of strangeness, aye.''

==Outcome==
Edward {{Wiki|Identity theft|assumed}} Duncan Walpole's identity, rescued Stede Bonnet, and sailed for Havana.

==Behind the scenes==
If the memory is replayed while Edward wears the [[Wardrobe of Edward Kenway|shark hunter outfit]], it shows him wearing Hidden Blades even when he technically had not retrieved them from Duncan's body yet.

A graphical error happens when Edward is approaching the shore after waking up underwater, where overcast, rainy skies change within seconds to cloudless, sunny weather.

The cutscene where Edward picks up Duncan's robes is meant as a visual allusion to a similar scene from the 2009 video game ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' in which [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] uncovers his father [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|Giovanni]]'s [[Ezio Auditore's robes|robes]] in the memory "[[Family Heirloom]]". However, unlike Ezio, who was born into the Assassins via the [[House of Auditore]] and willingly joins their cause, Edward inverts the connection between character and the group by misappropriating the outfit to serve his own ends.

Monkeys in the Caribbean are primarily an introduced African species called the green monkey, although up to the 17th Century these still shared territory with the now extinct Jamaican monkey. Both species were omnivores that ate a variety of foraged foods including fruit, seeds, flowers, insects, and smaller animals like frogs and birds.

Monkeys were viewed as pests by farmers as they continually raided crops, but were favoured by locals and sailors who adopted them as mischievous, intelligent pets.

Called the Grampus by sailors in the 18th century, the [[killer whale]], or Orca, is part of the dolphin family. Known for their ferociously deadly predation, killer whales feast on [[seal]]s, sea-lions and even other whales. They hunt in pods in the manner of [[Wolves|wolf packs]] and are found throughout the [[Earth|world]]'s seas.
