French Involvement was a virtual representation of one of Ratonhnhaké:ton's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus 3.0.[1]

Description[edit | edit source]

Connor and Robert Faulkner set out on the Aquila to protect La Belladonna, which had been left without an escort.

Dialogue[edit | edit source]

David Clutterbuck informing Connor about the Belladonna's cargo
  • Frenchman: You are late.
  • Connor: We came as quickly as the wind allowed.
  • Frenchman: Too slow.
  • Connor: And what happened to your escort?
  • Frenchman: Le Randolph started with us then departed without warning. Typique. (Typical.) This is why le Lieutenant insisted I come aboard. Partons. (Let's go.)
  • Robert: We'll go when we're good and bloody ready.
  • Frenchman: Quoi? (What?)
  • Robert: The Atlantic is a dangerous place for a lone ship, especially one laden with such desirable stock. You must be glad to see us.
  • Frenchman: Bof. It is hot here. My Lieutenant is not excited for the cold of the North.
  • Robert: Is this man being serious?
  • Connor: Keep a sharp eye, Mister Faulkner. Anybody searching for the Belladonna could be upon us in an instant with this fog.
  • Robert: Aye, captain. I've got a monkey's fist in me gut.
  • Crew member: English are on us, cap'n!

A group of British ships attacked the two vessels, after which La Belladonna destroyed a handful.

  • Frenchman: The power of the French Navy is clear!
  • Robert: They picked the wrong ship to pirate. Why in God's name are the English here in such force?
  • Connor: I do not know, but we must get the Belladonna out of this fog.
  • Frenchman: Do your job, capitaine! (captain!) Defend La Belladonna!
    We must protect her!
    La Belladonna is taking fire!
    The Belladonna does all the work!

The Aquila sank several British ships.

  • Robert: Another wreck for the deep!

A second wave of ships attacked.

The Aquila sank several British ships.

  • Crew member: Ha ha!
    Come one, come all! We're waiting for you!

More ships appeared.

  • Frenchman: Why are there so many?
  • Connor: It does not matter! We fight!
  • Robert: Aye. We're sitting ducks on the pond in this soup and you can be sure they've more on the way.
  • Frenchman: But what can we do?
  • Robert: Naught but pray they don't find us again.
  • Crew member: MAN O' WAR!

A Man O' War disabled the Belladonna.

The Belladonna disabled by a Man O' War
  • Frenchman: Grand Dieu! (Good God!) La Belladona's mainmast is down, capitaine! (captain!) We must stay close to her!
  • Robert: Bloody hell! Pummel that leviathan!
  • Connor: No! We board her. I must know how the English knew about the Belladonna. We take her a prize, men!
  • Frenchman: Board her? Es-tu fou? (Are you crazy?)
  • Crew: Arg! Arg!

After disabling the Man O' War's mainmast, Connor brought the Aquila alongside to begin boarding.

  • Robert: Hook us in! Bring her close! To arms! To arms!
  • David: Man the swivels! Cover from the quarter deck!
  • Robert: Secure the aft lines! Tie off the bow!
  • Crew member: Arg!

Connor boarded the Man O' War, before he attacked and then interrogated the dying ship's captain.

  • Connor: How does the British Command know about the Belladonna?
  • Captain: British Command knows nothing of this.
  • Connor: Then how are you here?
  • Captain: We were led here by a Patriot. Nicholas Biddle.
  • Connor: Who does Biddle work for?
  • Captain: I think you know, Assassin.
Biddle aboard the Randolph

The captain died, and Connor noticed a Templar ring on him. He then returned to the Aquila.

  • Robert: What did the captain tell you?
  • Connor: Nicholas Biddle led them here. He set—

Connor spotted the Randolph.

  • Connor: The Randolph.
  • Robert: The Randolph?! Beat to quarters!
  • Connor: Belay that order! He is putting us to his rudder. We cannot leave the Belladonna undefended.
  • Robert: But sir!
  • Connor: She is incapacitated and vulnerable. Let him go. We will see each other again soon.

Outcome[edit | edit source]

La Belladonna was saved, and Connor's suspicions about Biddle were confirmed.
