| | ===Blackbeard's Treasure=== |
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''Blackbeard's hidden his Treasure in a poxy Riddle.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's a lot of Pirates for Somewhere that's meant to be secret. All this because of some paper I found in a dead Man's Hat. I hope I'm right to trust Thatch's Map.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Shite, Thatch. What have you started.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's it. They've seen us now!'' |
| | *'''Lucy Baldwin:''' ''You know what this looks like? A lot of Work for me at the end of the Day, that's what.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''This is what happens when you tell Pirates there's Treasure.'' |
| | *'''Abel Galvão:''' ''Just be glad there are no Spaniards in the Mix.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'd almost prefer warring with the King's Navy to this.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 1:''' ''If the Loot is even Half of Blackbeard's Takings it's enough for all of us to live like Kings. But we have to hurry. With the Redcoats clearing out North Carolina and all, it won't be long afore they're down here as well.'' |
| | [] |
| | {{IUNote|Title=Search the Water|Text=Take the Diving Bell we picked up and search the Water at the front of the Cave.<br><br>Mind the Rope. It looks half rotted.<br><br>- QM}} |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''They thought Blackbeard hid his Treasure under water.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 2:''' ''I heard tell that Blackbeard buried it here on his own. Left his Crew and rowed Ashore hisself.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 3:''' ''That's all drunk Talk. Blackbeard were too canny to let his Treasure be found easy, no matter what Captain Hands' says.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 2:''' ''You better hope it's True! If the Captain's wrong, we get nothing but Blisters and Thirst for all our Work.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 4:''' ''I told you using a Bell was madness! Now look what's happened.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 5:''' ''Don't blame me! You were all for it 'til the cursed Line broke.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 4:''' ''Our Lads are drowned for certain! This is Captain Hand's fault, dragging us out here just to die.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 5:''' ''How in Hell did Blackbeard manage all this?'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 6:''' ''I ain't going back in there. There's Sharks in them Tunnels that got our Lads! I can't fathom how Blackbeard ever got through by himself.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 7:''' ''Leave them Powder Barrels be. Hands left 'em where they are a Purpose, and don't want no one touching 'em.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 8:''' ''Ah, he just couldn't carry them further with his gammy Leg. Look, no Harm will come of...'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 9:''' ''Think, man. Where would you hide your Treasure if you was Blackbeard. Not out in the open, that's certain.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 10:''' ''A couple of Boys went ahead, and the Walls fell on 'em! I ain't going no further!'' |
| | *'''Pirate 11:''' ''We can't just leave them, the Captain will have our Heads. Grab a couple of those Barrels, and we'll blast our way through.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 10:''' ''Captain Hand's to blame! He's going to get us killed. It's plain Blackbeard's trapped the Cave.'' |
| | *'''Pirate 11:''' ''Curse you for a Coward! You'll go in, or I'll gut you where you Stand!'' |
| | *'''Pirate 10:''' ''Try it, Lobcock, and see where it gets you!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Israel Hands:''' ''I was fucking Sailing Master, not some Swab! So who did Blackbeard send to search out his Farming tools? Israel bloody Hands, that's who. And I went, bad Leg and all, like a whimpering Puppy. Well, my Day has come. I'll take my Reward and more from Blackbeard's own Treasure.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Hands:''' ''I served Blackbeard, and what did it get me? The miserable Bastard shot me in my knee just to prove he could. Then he gave all Reward to that prancing Dandy Kenway. Well, now I'll get my Share!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Hands:''' ''Edward Kenway. Now that's fucking poetry, that is. I'll settle every Debt owed me this Day.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Israel Hands, Thatch's Sailing Master. I thought you Dead, or lost on account of your own Navigation.'' |
| | *'''Hands:''' ''You were always the Favorite, thieving Reward due the rest of us. You're gonna pay for that, Kenway! And for all you ever done to me!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Ever the Green Eyed Minnow, Hands.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''What the Devil...'' |
| | *'''Jackdaw pirate:''' ''Is that it? That's Blackbeard's Treasure?'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Blackbeard:''' ''Whoever's reading this Letter, you best hope I'm dead, or you'll answer for disturbing what I took uncommon Pains to secure. If, in point of Fact, I am dead, with Luck it's Edward Kenway who's doing the reading, having been lured by the smell of Gold. That being the Case, I'm sorry to disappoint you, Lad. You've not found Gold. But what you have found is Treasure of sorts. Here you have Everything you'll need to establish a Freehold, and grow it into the grand Proposition we always dreamed of. It's cost me a pretty Penny too, if I'm honest, so don't go squandering it. Do right by me in this, Kenway. The World needs a Place like Nassau, as much as it ever did.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You soft headed old Coot.'' |
| | *'''Blackbeard:''' ''Now don't worry, this weren't my whole Fortune. The rest is hid safe, and there ain't no Map to it. Blackbeard.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Clever Bastard. All right, Thatch. I'll see to it.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Bernard Woodhouse:''' ''Captain Kenway. What is all this? Pieces of Eight, Shovels, Pitchforks, Plow. A farming Manual?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''A Gift of sorts, from Blackbeard's Treasure. And there's a lot more besides.'' |
| | *'''Bernard:''' ''It's enough to secure the Prosperity of all the lives here. That's a strange kind of Treasure for a Pirate, is it not?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Blackbeard weren't a usual Pirate. Use it well. Treasure or no, it weren't easy to find.'' |
| | *'''Bernard:''' ''I'll make sure we do, Captain.'' |

| ===The Master Thief of Anbar===
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''I hear what you are saying, Basim. But you paint a portrait of a world that cannot exist.'' | |
| *'''Basim:''' ''That is where we disagree.'' | |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''There it is. The Winter Palace. Come, this way.'' | | *'''Stede Bonnet:''' ''My dear Friend, Edward. After a rather unfortunate Kerfuffle with the Governor's men, I currently enjoy the Hospitalities of a Charles-Towne Jail. It's all a bit bothersome, but I have Faith I'll be freed soon. Luckily, I'd already stashed some of my Takings in the Cabin of my Ship. I've sent it ahead to Mystery Island, but the Crew can be unpredictable without a Captain. I thought you might be amenable to checking in on them. There will be Reward for the Inconvenience of course, and I'll meet you there when I manage to extricate myself. It'll be just like old times! Signed Captain Stede Bonnet.'' |
| *'''Basim:''' ''Right behind you.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Captain Stede Bonnet... now, that's unexpected.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''Here. Let us wait for nightfall.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Hidden Treasure and Trouble with the Authorities. You earn my Respect, Bonnet.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''Does where you stand not awaken fond memories?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''I hope Bonnet's taken real Booty, and isn't hoarding Sugar or the like.'' |
| *'''Basim:''' ''Not so long aog we were counting our spoils up here under the cover of night, just like this.''
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''The stakes were lower then.''
| |
| *'''Basim:''' ''And so too was the prize.''
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''Well, before you claim your prize you will first have to reach it. And as far as I can see, that will take some creativity.''
| |
| *'''Basim:''' ''We could always try the front gate.''
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''You will have to let me know how that goes for you.''
| |
| *'''Basim:''' ''Where are you going?''
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''I've had a clever thought. If your mind is absent of one, you should perhaps follow mine.''
| |
| *'''Basim:''' ''Wait!''

| |width="50%" style="background: ; border: 1px solid #aaa; padding: 12px 12px 12px" | '''Infiltrate the Winter Palace'''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''He was quite the sight, wasn't he? From the Silk and Velvet of Barbados, to his own Captain's Helm. |
| The Hidden Ones need a chest stolen. Jasib spotted guards taking it with them to the Winter Palace. The content of the chest is still unknown, but if the Caliph is involved, it is certainly worth the risk.
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Aye. The man wasn't cut from the same Cloth as the rest of Nassau, that's for sure. |
| | | *'''Edward:''' ''Is that a hint of Fondness I hear, Lucy? |
| Nehal knows how to get into the palace, but there might be other ways to quietly sneak into this heavily guarded palace.
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I've no Love for the Posturing of Captains, present company excluded. |
| | | *'''Edward:''' ''Naturally. |
| LOOK FOR ways to infiltrate the palace.
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Bonnet struck me as a different sort. |
| |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''His ways aren't as Rough as Thatch or Vane's. But I can't say if that's a good thing. |

| *'''Soldier 3:''' ''Have you seen the guests? Such odd costumes.'' | | *'''Rowland Sharp:''' ''Get your paws off that Hatch, you Skulk. Come on out and face me! |
| *'''Soldier 4:''' ''Keep your mouth shut. You'll only invite trouble talking like that.''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Peace, man. My name's Edward Kenway, a friend of Bonnet's. I'm looking for his Crew, not a Fight. |
| *'''Soldier 3:''' ''Why dress that way, is all I'm asking. It's not festival time.'' | | *'''Sharp:''' ''Edward Kenway? As I live and breathe... come, join me by the Fire. |
| *'''Soldier 4:''' ''IThey are here to meet the Caliph about the chest that arrived this morning. Which, need I remind you, is none of our concern.''
| |
| *'''Soldier 3:''' ''Are you not curious?'' | |
| *'''Soldier 4:''' ''Even if I am, it will not break my focus.''

Perhaps I should've left off Pirating altogether, and sailed home to my Wife and Children. But I'm not quite the same man who left them, am I? That was the Gift you gave me, the Courage to live free. I'll muster that Courage when the morning comes. The Stories I promised will have to wait, Edward. But if, on your Adventures, you should hear any Tales of my sundry Exploits and Capers... then perhaps in the End I lived as I was meant to. |

| | Oyez! Oyez! Oyez! Hear ye, hear ye! |
| | By Order of his Majesty King George the First, let it be known that infamous Pirate, Shipwright, and Murderer Lucy Baldwin has been incarcerated aboard Prison Ships at Salt Key, from whence she will be taken to a suitable Location, and hanged from the Neck until dead. |
| | Thanks to the determined Bravery of Barrister Thomas Barehaire Esquire and Royal Pirate Hunter Lieutenant Robert Maynard, who were both instrumental in her capture, Miss Baldwin's Execution will serve as an Example to all who would defy the King's Law on Sea or Land. |
| | Long live King George! |

| | Damned good Shipwright she was.[[hiccup]] I heard Maynard got her, and put her on a Prison Ship at Salt Key. |
| | Right you are! |
| | A Pirate, and a Shipwright... and she pissed off the King's Men. I like her. |

It may be this merchant dwells in Shari', among the dyeing leather factory workers.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''It makes Sense. Grandpa had a small Cabin on a Beach just north of the Town. It's a quiet place. Out of the Way. When I was very young, Mama and I would go there. If I was going to hide Something, that's where I would hide it.'' |

Ali ibn Muhammad is brash and sees himself a great hero of prophecy. I loathe the man, but we fight a common enemy. One I must help defeat if my soul is to one day rest.''

Go, spy out this Fazil with care. But do not draw your blade at the Symposium. We don't want to show our hand just yet. But if Fazil is guilty and anlone, then like a viper, strike!

And make so few of me? We call this the House of Wisdom, but its foundations are unsound. For beneath the House of Wisdom lies the Dungeon of Ignorance. And upon such dark secrets we build our philosophies. Science is the boblest purpose. Knowledge is the greatest power.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''You take care of the Rest. I'm going ahead. |

| *'''Basim:''' ''Unlike you, Nehal, I keep the past in the past.''
| |
| *'''Nehal:''' ''You call yesterday the past? And this jinni of yours, this repulsive shadow that crushes your chest ... has it crawled back into the past too?''

| *'''Basim:''' ''No, it is still here. Sometimes, even in the day, I feel its breath on my neck. The nightmare invades the real world. Or has always been part of it.''

Few men can pass such a Test. If you need God's Forgiveness, only seek it, and it will be found. Vengeance is mine saith the Lord, but do not forget what Maynard did to you. Vengeance can be yours Today if you will fight. If it is not in your Heart to help give Maynard what he deserves, be assured we will do it. |

| ===The Exile's Plan===
| |
| [Memory description:] Modu's identity is enough for you to find out the situation outside the city, and you decide to start with the Frontier Village.
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Prince Modu said these men were slavers. I won't hold back when I meet them.''
| |
| [goes to the Frontier Village]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''The village is under attack! No doubt these are Touman's men.''
| |
| [fighting begins, finds their leader, whose name keeps changing between Wulei and Wuleidihou, and will use Uluyjoti in a scene further along]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''If I can take down their leader, this raid will end faster.''
| |
| [boss fight]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''You people are giving the Xiongnu a bad name. You enslave your own kin and even attack those you collude with? Where is your honor?''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''You dare attack me? Do you know who I am? I'm Wulei, the Xiongnu prince!''
| |
| [defeats dude]
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Please, don't kill me! I-I'm a prince! My life has value!''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I heard you the first time, prince. Tell me, are you the son of Touman Chanyu?''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Yes! Yes! You've heard of my father? If you let me go he'll be in your debt.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I doubt he will honor that. He sent you to attack this village even though he claims to be friends with the Qin. I am also aware that your father enslaved his own people for profit.''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Who... Who are you? How do you know that?''
| |
| [to themselves]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I should let this rat go and follow him back to his hideout.''
| |
| [frees him]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Tell your father that his reckoning is at hand, that the Youxia are here to exact justice.''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Y-Youxia? I'll be sure to deliver that message!''
| |
| [gets up and starts to leave, with the protag following them]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I'll have to keep up while maintaining my cover.''
| |
| [protag tails them, eavesdropping a few times, when Wulei stopped to talk to other Xiongnu]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu scout:''' ''My prince, there you are! We thought we had lost you. We sent a few search parties to no avail.''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Your concern is appreciated, I wasn't sure if I could make it back alive...''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu scout:''' ''You are safe now, my prince. We will stay here and guard the perimeter.''
| |
| [continues following them]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu hunter:''' ''My prince, you are back! I am just about to hunt, would you care to join?''
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''Perhaps another time, I am exhausted today. But my father and I are grateful for the game you always provide.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu hunter:''' ''You are too kind, my prince. Please, rest well.''
| |
| [continues following them to where the clan is camped]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Hmmm, so this is where Touman Chanyu resides. I'll need to find proof of their collusion with the Qin. Perhaps I can infiltrate the camp as a passing merchant.''
| |
| [overhears a conversation between two herders as the protag enters the camp]
| |
| *'''Prudent herder:''' ''Haven't seen this merchant before...''
| |
| *'''Proud herder:''' ''Another Qin merchant? They don't know when to quit.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''You! Where do you think you're going? You walk into our camp without wares and a weapon on your back, are you asking for an early death?''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I'm a peddling merchant... and I'm here to collect furs for trade. That is why I came empty handed.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''We weren't informed of any collection today. Who sent you?''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Duanhe, the Qin officer, sent me... Surely, you've heard of him? He works with Touman Chanyu.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''Duanhe? Why didn't you say so earlier? Go on then, but any funny business and you're out of here.''
| |
| [protag goes to enter the main tent, only to be met with Wulei walking out of it]
| |
| *'''Wulei:''' ''That- That is the Youxia! You dare enter my father's camp after what you did?''
| |
| [escaping begins]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''You heard the prince! Kill that scoundrel! Don't let that Qin snake near our Prince!''
| |
| [runs out of the village and into safety]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I can't take on a whole village by myself. I should return in the evening when they are asleep.''
| |
| [finds an abandoned camp]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''They've stopped pursuing. This seems like a good place to stake out until the sun goes down.''
| |
| [time passes]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Under the cover of night, they are less likely to spot an intruder. Grand General Meng Tian is counting on me to find evidence of their collusion with the Qin.''
| |
| [returns to the camp, eavesdrops on a couple of herders]
| |
| *'''Timid herder:''' ''We can't keep living like this. You promised me a good life! We're no better than slaves here.''
| |
| *'''Prudent herder:''' ''Shut it woman, do you want us dead?''
| |
| [to themselves]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''None of them are safe even from their own people.''
| |
| [overhears another conversation]
| |
| *'''Proud herder 1:''' ''How are we going to overcome the Qin empire when we fight among ourselves? Why do we enslave our own people?''
| |
| *'''Proud herder 2:''' ''We pledged loyalty to Touman only because he's the strongest and we'll never be made slaves.''
| |
| [infiltrates main tent, finds note]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Touman Chanyu has ordered all the scattered tribes to gather here... This is bad, he's gathering forces.''
| |
| [goes to another tent, overhears stuff and takes letter from tent]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''Hah, of course, you don't have to worry.''
| |
| *'''Purple soldier:''' ''If Touman keeps up his end of the deal, the next batch of supplies will be coming soon. And don't forget to hand him the missive in the tent. That letter is from my boss, Duanhe.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu guard:''' ''Don't you worry, I will pass the message on if you keep those taels coming.''
| |
| *'''Purple soldier:''' ''Good, I'm meeting my boss at the western camp. You keep an eye on Touman and make sure he sticks to the plan.''
| |
| {{IUNote|Title=Yang Duanhe's Secret Letter|Text=Gather your forces on the west side of the wall. I'll personally create an opening for you to pass through.<br><br>-Duanhe}}
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''An official agreement between the Qin Department of Immortality and Touman Chanyu! Signed, Duanhe. This is it. I need to get this to Grand General Meng Tian...''
| |
| [leaves camp]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''I have the evidence for the Grand General, but this might be the only chance for me to catch Duanhe... There's no time for second guessing! For Chu Huan's sake... I'll end Duanhe myself.''
| |
| [heads to the western camp]
| |
| As you approach the western camp in search of Yang Duanhe, a group of Xiongnu raiders appear from the roadside, hoping to ambush a lonely traveler.
| |
| [starts to fight off ambush]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu raider:''' ''What luck, an easy target! Hand us everything you've got, even your clothes.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Sorry, I'm not in a giving mood today.''
| |
| *'''Xiongnu raider:''' ''There's no one out here to save you, so be good, and we'll let you go easy.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''You raiders are persistent. I'll give you that. But I won't give up just yet...''
| |
| [protag keeps killing the cannon fodder, but more keep arriving]
| |
| *'''Xiongnu raider:''' ''You really think you can take on all of us?''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''How many of them are there? They just keep coming. I can't... keep up...''
| |
| You clear another wave of Xiongnu warriors, but it seems endless. As fatigue catches up to you, a sudden hail of arrows takes out the oncoming warriors. Modu and his men arrive. He tells the survivors to bring word back to his father that Prince Modu has returned. As they flee, he comes to speak to you.
| |
| *'''Modu:''' ''I have important news. Our scouts have confirmed that the Qin forces have gathered our tribes to the west.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''The west is where I am headed as well. I found evidence, solid evidence, that will get the Grand General on our side.''
| |
| *'''Modu:''' ''Good, but you may not make it back in time to your General in time. If my scouts are right, they will attack the wall soon. Seems to be a distraction, to lure your General out. For what reason, I do not know. And I fear my father cares little for their true intent if he can fatten his belly and grow his fortune. Get to Tulu pass'' [sic] ''as soon as you can. I have also sent word to your friend, she will be on her way to meet you.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''Thank you, Prince Modu. You have saved my life and guided me through your lands.''
| |
| *'''Modu:''' ''It was you who saved my life first. Now you can tell your friends that you have a Prince in your debt.''
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''You are no mere prince. It would do the Xiongnu good for you to become their next King. I pray we meet again.''
| |
|

| ===Battle at the Wall===
| |
| [Memory description:] Yang Duanhe is in Tulu Pass, between the Great Wall and the Frontier. For Chu Huan, for Jade Spring, you must settle the score with him...

| |
| *'''Yu Ying:''' ''I'm just worried... either way, Modu sent me a message to get here, and I found something way worse... That man, Duanhe, he's here. And they've smuggled a hill's worth of oil barrels to blow up the wall.''

| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''These people know no loyalty. A Qin soldier blowing up the wall, and colluding with the Xiongnu...''

| |
| Your next move knocks the Fox's mask off, revealing Nie Jing's face. Yu Ying and Meng Tian arrive and Nie Jing pulls out the stolen treasure from Yangzhou Palace. A magical shield deflects your blades, shattering and dazzling you. When the stars fade from your vision, she's gone.
| |
| [protag follows Meng Tian and Yu Ying, while Cyf does not stop opening the menus to make my work harder]
| |
| *'''Wei Yu's disciple:''' ''My search has led me to believe that the Department of Immortality has been manipulating the Xiongnu. I found a written agreement between Toumman Chanyu and Yang Duanhe. ''
| |
| *'''Meng Tian:''' ''An agreement signed by Duanhe is not enough evidence to persecute the court official in charge. I have looked outwards for far too long... and now the foundations of our empire crumbles. But I won't stay idle, not when my family's position is threatened at court and this country rots from within. I have news that the Department of Immortality has dealings in Shangjun. I seek an eagle. A swift and wary hunter to keep track of a fox that has long evaded my sight.''

| Venice - 1524 - Headquarters of the Brotherhood
| |
|
| |
|
| It has been years since your team of Assassins last met in the hallways of the headquarters of the Brotherhood. They all have had their share of heroic actions and tense fights with the Templars.
| |
|
| |
|
| Now they are assembled again for a special briefing.
| | *'''Soldier British 06 Male:''' ''Look around! |
| | *'''Soldier British 04 Male:''' ''Come on, cough it up. You wouldn't have no profits at all if not for Lieutenant Maynard. |
| | *'''Soldier British 04 Male:''' ''And no shirking, neither! The more you give the better the Lieutenant can protect all of our Interests. |
|
| |
|
| Months ago, The Brotherhood received worrying reports about a group of former Assassins gone rogue, deep into the jungles of the ancient kingdom of Cambodia. Very worrying rumors are circulating: a powerful artifact is in their possession and the Templars are actively looking for it. They seem to instill terror into the local populations. Not to mention the fact that this group is giving the Brotherhood a very bad reputation...
| |
|
| |
|
| The rumor has it that they are led by a giant viper who goes by the name of Colubra...
| | *'''Soldier British 01 Male:''' ''It's shameful what the Crown's done to Lieutenant Maynard if you ask me. |
| | *'''Soldier British 05 Male:''' ''Aye, he's worth twice any of the other Captains. |
| | *'''Soldier British 01 Male:''' ''He should have been made Captain long ago. |
| | *'''Soldier British 05 Male:''' ''He already does the work of a Captain with none of the Reward. |
|
| |
|
| A group of less experienced Assassins was sent to investigate but they have gone silent and the Brotherhood is not optimistic about their fate. This is why they has tasked you, the four most loyal and experienced Assassins currently in Italy, with the delicate mission to find the team that was sent before you, recover any artifacts they may possess, seek the rogue Assassins and deal with their leader in the most discreet fashion.
| |
|
| |
|
| You will not be alone in this: Shao Jun, a brilliant Assassin was on her way back to China but accepted to help you work your way in the jungle of the Khmer Empire. | | *'''Soldier British 03 Male:''' ''It don't sit right with me, what Maynard's doing. |
| | *'''Soldier British 04 Male:''' ''You mean his going behind the Captain's back, and taking all his Men? |
| | *'''Soldier British 03 Male:''' ''Aye. There's such a thing as Loyalty, you know? Where would we be if we all just did as we chose? |
| | *'''Soldier British 04 Male:''' ''We're just Foot Soldier's, Mate. It don't matter what you or I think at the end of the Day. |

| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Last Bit. |
| Your first contact with the region was as rough as you had anticipated. Harrowing weeks on a merchant ship, total estrangement in a land where almost nothing reminds you of Italy, the heat and humidity... Fortunately, some of you are well traveled. After weeks of sailing on the Mother of all Rivers, the Tônlé Mékôngk, as it is called by the people you met, you are starting to appreciate the wonders of the Khmer Empire. Traces of its glorious past are popping up at surprising turns of the river, with the majestic temples, grandiose vegetation and incredible life forms.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''We need to hurry. |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's done. Why did you not cover your own Ears? |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''It's too late for my ears. |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Now to put the charges on Maynard's Ship. |
|
| |
|
| In a small settlement in the heart of the jungle, you are set to meet Shao Jun, the Assassin who will accompany you on your journey. As you come close to the meeting point, you see that villagers have gathered around a sick bed. Shao Jun lies there, livid.
| |
|
| |
|
| You understand that she has been poisoned and that she needs an antidote as soon as possible in order to survive. The villagers point out to the area where the village keeps a small stash of locally made antidotes. | | *'''Edward:''' ''Your Ships have a tendency to sink. |
| | *'''Maynard:''' ''All according to Plan. Fire! |

|
| She reveals that she was poisoned by a very intriguing figure she believes might have something to do with that Colubra you’re looking for. You need to find what happened to the previous Assassin team...
