			::Thank you, Kain. However, I can't agree that the audio logs of AC4 are enough to validate the claim that the protagonist of ''The Lost Archive'' is Desmond.
			::Why? Because ''TLA'' gateway is located on an island similar to but unlike the island of the Black Room Desmond witnesses in ''Revelations''. The Black Room Island gets destroyed, remarkably so, before the end of ''Revelations''... but it's also reconstructed after the end of it, to be exactly the same as before the deletion. That island houses the gateway to the storyline as well as Desmond's journey-chapters... whereas ''TLA'' island houses only the single gateway.

			::In addition to that, there's also what Clay says during ''Revelations'':
			::* "Playing. Learning. Waiting. A lot of waiting. I keep the Animus distracted as best I can. For you, so you can explore. Otherwise it might hunt you down like a little virus and, ah...delete you."
			::* "I just... I don’t want to be here anymore."
			::* "Here it comes... - This is the end, Desmond. Scheduled for deletion."
			::* "What is a man but a sum of his memories? We are the stories we live! The tales we tell ourselves!"

			::Imo, ''TLA'' doesn't happen -after- ''Revelations''; it happens at the same time. It's how Clay keeps "Animus distracted"; ''TLA'' doesn't happen just once or twice, but it's repeated time and time again.
