	Not long afterwards, the [[Assassins\|Assassin]] [[Mentor]] [[Ah Tabai]] liberated Edward, asking for assistance in rescuing [[Anne Bonny]] and [[Mary Read]], who were also imprisoned within the fort. After sneaking past the garrison, sabotaging several alarm bells, and paying respect to Rackham's remains, Edward infiltrated the prison. Upon entering the building, Edward immediately heard somebody singing a familiar [[Sea shanties\|sea shanty]]. After eliminating the guards, Edward realized that the sound was coming from one of the cells by the stairs.

	Edward greeted his former comrade, saying that he had heard about his capture, but Vane, who appeared to have gone completely mad, only glanced up briefly, barely registering Kenway's presence. Despite their falling out, Edward pitied seeing Vane in this state. However, he quickly realized that there was nothing he could do; Vane's mind was clearly broken beyond repair and saving him would have been detrimental to rescuing Anne and Mary. Still needing to find the women, Edward sorrowfully wished Vane luck, before abandoning to his fate. Knowing what lay in store for the former pirate, Edward lamented upon how he wished they could have exchanged a proper farewell. As Edward ran off, the completely oblivious Vane went back to his singing.<ref name="To Suffer Without Dying"/>		Edward greeted his former comrade, saying that he had heard about his capture, but Vane, who appeared to have gone completely mad, only glanced up briefly, barely registering Kenway's presence.
