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.'' |

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.'' |

| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'm still owed some answers, Sharp. Where's Bonnet? |
| | *'''Sharp:''' ''I wish I knew. There was Trouble in Charles-Towne. The Governor put a Bounty on the Major's head, and his men chased us out to Sea. The Major sent us on ahead. Then he turned back upriver to draw them off our tail. |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That must be how he was captured. He held them off alone? |
| | *'''Pirate 8:''' ''"See how Edward taught me to fight!" he said. And have we seen it! |

I fear your Advice was wasted on a Constitution like mine. 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. |

| (Tell me about poetry.)

| *'''Remorseful monk:''' ''Perhaps. But these bandits threaten all monks and pilgrims in the region.'' | | *'''Ego:''' ''Beneath his gruff exterior, Ed Thatch was a tormented man.

| | *'''Ego:''' ''The greed inside him grew out of control.'' |

| | *'''Ego:''' ''Now, see the path that was possible.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Ego:''' ''Had Thatch been humble enough to bend the knee, his life could have been different.'' |

| Yasuke searches for a colorful and personal gift for Ibuki.
| | ===[[A Proper Shipwright]]=== |
| | <!-- Crier |
| | 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! |
|
| |
|
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''You look well. Like you have settled into life here.'' | | ##Tavern |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''I must say it is lovely. A rustic sort of charm, but...'' | | What was that Lass's name?[[hiccup]] Lacy.. No! Lucy Baldwin. |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''"But?" You have complaints already?'' | | Hehe "Lacy". Yer drunk Ned![[hiccup]] Shit, so am I. |
| *'''XXXX:''' ''Complaint is a terrible, harsh word! My keen and sophisticated eyes have spotted room for improvement, is all.'' | | Damned good Shipwright she was.[[hiccup]] I heard Maynard got her, and put her on a Prison Ship at Salt Key. |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Should I summon a scribe? How long is this list of improvements?'' | | Right you are! |
| *'''XXXX:''' ''Silly. I only mean you could do with a bit more color. More beauty. Something to invite joy into this place. Other than your sparkling wit, I mean. For the moment, I shall retire to the bamboo grove near the stable. A peaceful spot from which to comtemplate the chaos, hmm?'' | | A Pirate, and a Shipwright... and she pissed off the King's Men. I like her. |
| Ibuki left, allowing Yasuke a moment of contemplation.
| | --> |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''More color. Ibuki is right. I could gather flower seeds for them. Blue anemone are their favorite. I will find a vibrant patch of flowers and collect seeds. The brighter the blooms, the better the gift.'' | | [] |
| Yasuke left to find the flowers.
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''Did you happen to hear why the Red Coats should be so interested in her?'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Remarkable plants to have thrived so well. Even out of season.<br>There! These are the anemone I seek. The most beautiful blooms I have ever seen.'' | | *'''Adéwalé:''' ''No more than any other Pirate.'' |
| He returned to the bamboo grove with the gift.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''It's strange she warrants such Infamy. I'm interested to hear the Truth of it.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Here, for you. A gift of future color and joy. Blue anemone seeds. I had hope to find a brighter, bluer patch. But these were hardy. They will grow well. Wherever you plant them.'' | | *'''Adéwalé:''' ''It's not like you to take us on a mission of good Will without promise of Pay.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''What a thoughtful gift, Yasuke. I don't know what to say.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''It's not for Amusement, Adé. You know yourself the State of the Ship. We need a decent Shipwright. This Lass is all I've found.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''I am glad to see you happy, my friend.'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Now you will never forget me. For every cluster of blue, you will wonder, "Was Ibuki here?"'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Stay at a distance, we don't want to raise their Hackles. I'll swim over.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''I will not forget you.'' | | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Easy now.'' |

| | *'''British soldier 1:''' ''I've pulled double duty every Day this Week. There's always something.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 2:''' ''Me as well. It's that new Prisoner Lieutenant Maynard brought in. She's Trouble, mark my Words. None of them Baldwins are any good. They say she murdered her own Grandfather, though he had it coming from what I hear.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 1:''' ''The Apple don't fall far from the Tree. It's a shame though, ain't it? She's a pretty little thing.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 2:''' ''Don't be a Fool! She'd cut your Throat the minute your Back was turned.'' |

| | *'''Edward:''' ''This looks right.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''British soldier 3:''' ''The new Prisoner's a Baldwin.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 4:''' ''I don't care who she is, she's a Pirate. They're going to stretch her Neck, and good riddance.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''British soldier 5:''' ''How'd they catch her?'' |
| | *'''British soldier 6:''' ''I didn't hear, only that she fought like a {{Wiki|Banshee}}. It took three Men to hold her, and she's no bigger than a {{Wiki|cabin boy|Cabin Boy}}.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I must be close.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You're short for a Soldier. Is the Governor taking Children into his Service now?'' |
| | *'''British soldier 7:''' ''You've got a Mouth on you, you little Bilge [[Rat]].'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Christ! And your Breath smells like Monkey Ass.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 7:''' ''We'll see how Smart you are when the Rope's around your Neck, and you dance the [[Hanging|Hempen Jig]].'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You alright?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''And who in Blazes are you?'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'm your passage out of here. Quickly.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I don't know you from Blind Bart.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'm in need of a Shipwright, and you're in need of better Lodgings.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's it, time to go. It's me or the Hangman.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You make a fine Argument. Lead on.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Adéwalé:''' ''British Ships!'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''New Crew onboard. Lucy Baldwin, Shipwright and scourge of the Caribbean.'' |
| | *'''Adéwalé:''' ''Welcome aboard.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''It's a decent enough Tub.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''The Jackdaw's no Tub, I promise you.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You've pissed off some powerful People.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I wish I could take Credit. I've been stitched up.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You and every Pirate on the [[Caribbean|open seas]], Lass.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I'm keen to get some distance from this Place.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Welcome to the ''Jackdaw'', Shipwright. You can see for yourself, she's no Slouch.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You're Ship proud. I respect that.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''She could use some work, if I'm honest. We need your Skill. What say you to joining us?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You don't mince Words, do you? I suppose I could look around, see what needs doing. First I need a decent [[Alcohol|Drink]]. I had nothing but fouled water in that damned Cell for Days.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''It's a matter of some Urgency, then. We'll have to go Ashore.'' |

| ==Past and Present== | | ===The One With the Gun=== |
| Back in his hometown, Yagoro finally musters the courage to confront his long-time enemy, Akechi Mitsuhisa.
| |
|
| |
|
| *'''Town elder:''' ''So the boy wants to save us from the Akechi clan. Why would I stop him from doing that?'' | | *'''Lucy Baldwin:''' ''Captain! A Word.'' |
| *'''Elderly woman:''' ''He's not going to save anyone. He'll just get himself killed.'' | | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''What's on your mind, Shipwright? Are you ready for that Drink?'' |
| *'''Town elder:''' ''He's built himself a concealed blade. I asked how he did that and he went on for an hour.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''Easy. I'm not your Shipwright yet. I was thinking to put Ashore when we're next near Land.'' |
| *'''Elderly woman:''' ''Oh dear. The boy is so clumsy, he's going to cut himself on that blade before he even reaches the mines.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''You're not leaving? I thought the Jackdaw and her Crew would secure your good Opinion.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Not yet, at any Rate. I'm just in need of some good Rum, and Distraction.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Spoke like a Pirate. I know a place with an Abundance of both.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I've yet to finish here. You weren't jesting when you said the Ship needs work. I'll find you at the Tavern when I'm done.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You're murdering the wrong people if you've gained the King's Enthusiasm.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Accused of murdering. It's a fucking stitch-up, I told you.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''What will you do now, then? You could join us. You won't find a better Ship than the Jackdaw, nor a fairer Crew.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Christ, you're relentless.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I need you.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''So you said. You did keep me from hanging.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''True.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''But that doesn't mean you own me.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Also True.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''The Jackdaw's not a bad Tub. And the Crew know their Work well enough. What else have you got for me?'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'll show you.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''It might not look like much yet, but it will in Time.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I've puked in every Town from here to Havana. What's different about this one?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''This is ours, a Place where Men and Women can live easy and free, as God made them. Nothing but Sun, Rum, and Leisure.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You've rehearsed that little Speech. Are the Words all yours?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Mine... and those of Friends. They're not any less true for that.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I was just asking.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''British civilian:''' ''Edward! Trust you to come at the right time. I've got a Pot of Plantain fresh off the Fire.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Plantain! That's what you should have led with. |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Let's eat up at the Villa. I want you to see it, anyway.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Villa? Lardy-dardy! Next you'll tell me you're not Pirates but Noblemen.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I always hoped one would lead to the Other.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 1:''' ''It's a good Day for it, Edward!'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Aye! And better for being Free to do it.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 2:''' ''That's a pretty Morsel you've found there, Kenway.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Back off Swab, or I'll unman you where you stand!'' |
| | *'''Pirate 2:''' ''All right, all right! I meant no Offense.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Some have yet to grasp the true Purpose of this Place.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Pff! Look at you, playing the Politician. Your Crew respects you. I see that.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''It's mutual. Are you surprised?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''My experience with Authority is... uneven.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Moggy!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Hey there Moggy. What are you doing? Look at your fetching little Face.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Careful with that one. He's as much a Scoundrel as any of us.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''My Grandfather owned a place like this on Black Island. Had the best Plantain in the West Indies.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's quite a Boast.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''It's True nonetheless. When my Mother died, it was Grandad who raised me. We ate Plantain every day. I'm pretty much made of Plantain.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Where's this Grandfather now?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Murdered. I'm going to find the one who did it and vent his Skull. It's like this... I'm heir to Grandad's Fortune. If you help me recover it, I'll cut you in. Then we'll talk about joining your Crew.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I see you're going to make me work for this.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I'm worth it.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Where is this Inheritance?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Grandad's Plantation. And we have to be quick. My Father and his blood-sucking Barrister are after it, no Doubt.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You had better be a very good Shipwright.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''As to that, I'll be back on the Jackdaw patching your sorry Sails...'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''...Captain.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''We've improved the Jackdaw's Hull, but it needs more than just Joinery. The Crew have a Part to play as well. They should brace the Ship just before we're hit. If we time it right, we'll take less Damage. That means less Work for me.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Another String to our Bow, then.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''My Papa was not a good Father. He couldn't make it as a Businessman like Grandad. He turned his hand to Piracy but lacked the stomach for it. So he drank, and took it out on me.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''And now he wants your Inheritance.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''He'll come looking for me, and that means Trouble. Sorry.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You'll make it up to me.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Hello, Papa.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Your Father?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''His Lackies. Right on time.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Whatever your Father paid them, it wasn't enough.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Bon Voyage, Shitbirds.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''The Harbor's too dangerous, my Father will have it watched. There's a place on the far side of the Island where we can dock.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Right. We should be careful. My Father's a Drunk but he's not stupid, and he's mean as a cut Snake when Money's involved.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Quiet as Church Mice, then. Lead on.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Grandad taught me to shoot out here. He had a pair of gold Pistols he loved even more than me.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''There's a Hut near the Beach where Grandad used to hide things. I want to check there first.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I spent a lot of time in that Hut as a kid.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I had a place like it on my Father's Farm. I'd hide there to escape my Chores.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''It wasn't that, I... My Father would lock me in it when he was drinking. Once I was stuck there for Days. He forgot about me.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Jaysus.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I'll search the Hut. I know Grandad's hiding spots. You should check the Manor. The Will could be somewhere in his Office. We need to find it before my Father does. I'll meet you back there.'' |
| | [] |
| | [[Database: Barrister's Letter]] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Shit! The Father and this Barrister changed the Will, and murdered Lucy's Grandfather. Lucy will kill him before we find the Gold.'' |
| | [] |
| | [[Database: Last Will and Testament]] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Lucy's Father and this Barrister rewrote the Grandfather's Will. He gave himself everything.'' |

| | *'''John:''' ''You know Nothing, Girl.'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''But you're only his Son-in-law, aren't you? You won't get Anything in the Will.'' |
| | *'''John:''' ''Is that what you think you little Harpy? I get all of it. The Will's changed. And he can't change it back now, can he?'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''It was you! Admit it. You killed Him. Say it!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Say it.'' |
| | *'''John:''' ''Who do you think you are...'' |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I'm the one with the gun, Papa.'' |

| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I was born here. I come here all the time. And you?'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''But no Gold. There was nothing in the Hut but his Pistols.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Wherever help is needed is where I will go.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Nothing at the Manor either. I only found a fake Will drafted by your Father's Barrister.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''When I was a boy, I sold myself into bondage to the Akechi to help my mother through the winter. It wasn't enough. The whole village took pity on me, though. They looked after me. I have a whole town of aunties and uncles. I just wish you didn't have to see it, you know... like this.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''That slimy Coward, he's fled with the Gold for certain. We find him, we find it. I'll put Word out. If he so much as raises his Head anywhere civilized, I'll hear of it.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''What happened?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''That was tough back there. Are you all right?'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''Some Akechi thugs think they still own us. I have to do something about it. This is why I left to train. To protect my people. This is my mission.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''I'm an Orphan now. I'm better.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''We killed Mitsuhide. His clan are an afterthought.''
| | [] |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''They are monsters. They occupied the town years ago. Gave us a pittance and worked everyone bloody. Then, Miss Fubuki inspired us to fight back and reclaim our town. But their leader, Akechi Mitsuhisa... He had his men tire her. Then struck her down in the town center. The pig thinks his castle will protect him. After all this time, I am finally ready to face him. I have to be.''
| | |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''You want to help your people. That's what makes you one of us. As your ally, I will fight at your side. If you'll let me.''
| | <!-- Butler at Great Inagua |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I was hoping you'd say that! I mean, I accept.''
| | Welcome back Captain Kenway. I see you have brought a friend. Welcome to Great Inagua Miss...? |

| | Lucy. |

| *'''Akechi Mitsuhisa:''' ''[breathes] Who are you? Who sent you?''
| | |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''My people sent me! They are under my protection.''
| | ## Soldier talking? |
| *'''Mitsuhisa:''' ''I remember you. You're the boy who wouldn't stop bawling when I struck down that demon woman.''
| | Why's Baldwin back? It can't be for any good reason. |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''She stood up for us. Inspired us. But you? You are half the warrior she was.''
| | The old Man sent him packing last time. He damn near shit himself. |
| *'''Mitsuhisa:''' ''[breathes] We paid the peasants. Even you, if I recall.''
| | Aye, firing those gold Pistols over Baldwin's Head as he fell all over himself in Haste to get away. What a Sight that was! |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''A pittance for back-breaking work! Not even enough to feed my mother! You are just a thug, with hatred in your heart and an army at your back. I have hunted worse than you. And I will continue until my people are safe.''
| | The Cur's only back because the old Man's dead. He wouldn't have the Balls otherwise. |
| *'''Mitsuhisa:''' ''Big words for a small man. [winces] Your people chose poorly.''

| *'''Naoe:''' ''You are doing this for them. Don't forget that.''
| | You Jest, but you're becoming fond of the Place. |
| Yagoro bowed.
| | In truth, it does leave an aftertaste. I'd assumed that was Rum. |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''Thank you, Miss Naoe. For being there for me. For showing me this path. I will try to make it my own.''

They couldn't get to him, so... they got her. She always wore a Gold Locket with a Likeness of me in it. It was gone when they found her. Whoever killed her took it. It was a paltry Trinket, and had no value. They didn't even leave me that.'' |
| *'''Noble:''' ''How did the nanban priest persuade you to convert?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''That's cold, even for a Pirate.'' |

| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Lady Satoko's family has hired men to ambush you on the road. Once the baptism is complete.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''You can't deny the devilish Symmetry. My Father killed Grandad, I killed him... all of it done with these.'' |

| An unknown ronin bravely stands alone to defend a village.
| | *'''Lucy Baldwin:''' ''Captain! I received Word. The Barrister who forged my father's Will has been seen at Havana.'' |
| *'''Elderly man:''' ''Was that the last of them?'' | | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''That's worth looking into.'' |
| *'''Woman:''' ''Why can't the daimyo leave us to be?'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Because you are peasants. Nakatomi would squish you like ants before hearing your side. Nakatomi's men are loyal. They will only stop when we stop them.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Havana is a long Way from your Grandfather's Plantation on Black Island. Are you sure about this?'' |
| [Yasuke approaches]
| | *'''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.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''You. Here? I cannot decide if I should be elated for the help or enraged that it's you.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''You think the Barrister has your Gold there?'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''You know me?'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''That Coward wouldn't risk being seen for no reason, I know that. There's something there. The Beach with Grandad's Cabin is to the north, past the Town.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''I know of you. The foreign-born samurai who made ashes of Iga. Have you come to finish the job you began at Nobunaga's side?'' | | [] |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Iga is no longer my enemy. Things change. People change.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''This Barrister seems well connected for a simple Lawer. How did your Father come to know him?'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''It is true. All is changing, all is ephemeral. Even our enmity.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''For as long as I can remember he was around our Family, even before Mama died. I never liked him. He wears a big wig, has a fake smile, and stinks of Lavender.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''You have no reason to fear me. My oaths are my own.''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''There was a Letter at Black Island that said it was him who put the Red Coats on your Trail.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''The oaths were the point! Nakatomi might actually listen to an honor-bound samurai. But without a daimyo's power at your back, your presence here is useless.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''Yes. When we find him I mean to bring that up.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Useless? I can fight. You need not defend these people alone. Who is it that hunts them?'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Nakatomi. An iron-fisted daimyo who rules a swath of what was once my homeland.'' | | *'''Barrister:''' ''Spread out further! It's somewhere here.'' |
| The woman cried out nearby.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Speak of the Devil. That looks like your Barrister.'' |
| *'''Woman:''' ''More of Nakatomi's men!'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''That's him all right.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''If you want to assist, now is your chance. I only hope you are as proficient as the rumors say.'' | | [] |
| [kill all enemies] | | *'''Lucy:''' ''You murdering fucking Cur!'' |
| *'''Woman:''' ''Traitor!'' | | *'''Barrister:''' ''Get them! Get them!'' |
| *'''Man:''' ''Theft is theft. Whether gold or a grain of rice!'' | | [] |
| *'''Woman:''' ''Rat! People died because of you!'' | | *'''Barrister:''' ''Please! Spare me! I'll share it with you!'' |
| *'''Man:''' ''I thought the soldiers would take their due and deliver the rice back to Lord Nakatomi.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''It's not yours to share, Mate.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''You are thieves?'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Not I. Them, perhaps. But how can you judge the helpless? They needed help, so I helped. Living one's ideals can be a messy thing. What would you do, standing in my place?'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''They buried it here somewhere.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''If you kill this man, then your justice is the same as Lord Nakatomi's. Prove him wrong with your forgiveness.'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Surprising. But a choice I can respect.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''There's a Spade here.'' |
| Ibuki stepped closer to the man.
| | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''Forget Nakatomi. Your allegiance is here, now, with your neighbors. And you will not betray them again.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''That's a grand Sight. There's a Letter.'' |
| THe others left, leaving Ibuki alone with Yasuke.
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Show me.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''I admire your forgiving nature. But these people did not deny breaking the law. They knew what they were risking.'' | | [] |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''So their blood should pay for a sack of rice? I do not see the earthly sense in that. You are a justice-seeker. As am I. Call me Ibuki.'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''What? This is my Mother's.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Yasuke.''
| | [] |
| They bowed to one another.
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''Fuck! It was Papa.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''I know. I used to serve under Nakatomi, years ago. Me and Kyobei. Kyobei was like a brother to me. Until I refused to do Nakatomi's bidding. Then Kyobei himself dumped me in the woods. I was exiled.'' | | [] |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''You do not seem the type to be dissuaded by others' commands.''
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''I got him, Mama.'' |
| *'''Ibuki:''' ''How astute of you. Perhaps you are right. What is the line... "How much longer must I carry this hateful flame?" Maybe it is time for me to return home. If you wish to help me again,, meet me near Hijiyama. We can put an end to Nakatomi's wrath.'' | | [] |
| | *'''Lucy:''' ''You tell anyone you saw me cry, and I'll bury you next to that fucking Barrister.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Not a Word.'' |

| | *'''Galvão:''' ''This is my fault. Bishop Ravenscroft was the man who led me to God. He was like a Father to me. He believed in me. It was he who entrusted me with the care of the People here. When trouble with the Protestants began at Kingston, he wanted more Catholics there. He called on us to join him, but I argued against it. With Du Casse gone, I thought we were safe. We were only here because I disagreed with the Bishop! It was them. Du Casse's Men. They made me watch... The Lord is merciful and just. But my Heart is deceitfully wicked.'' |

| | *'''Galvão:''' ''There are two Entrances. Let's split up.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'll head into the Forest.'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''Let none leave alive.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I'm looking for cooking ingredients.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''They're armed and looking lively.'' |
| *'''Merchant:''' ''I sell many goods, miss. Must grown or made right here in Yuasa.'' | | *'''Galvão:''' ''Ah. Not for long.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''What was it Junjiro wanted? Maybe browsing the wares will help me to remember.'' | | [] |
| *'''Merchant:''' ''Well?'' | | *'''Bishop Ravenscroft:''' ''An entire Shipment lost. Our Brothers in Cape Bonavista murdered. And I am barred from walking the Streets of Kingston. Enemies beset us on all Sides. Yet, my Faith has never been stronger. Our Numbers grow. The Enemy fears this. They are right to be afraid. Prepare yourselves. The Time of Peace is past, and our Templar Allies gather strength. It is Time for War. Shall we begin the Initiation?'' |
| Naoe purchased konbu and shoyu.
| | *'''Pirate 1:''' ''Mister Boreham is not here, Sir.'' |
| *'''Merchant:''' ''Please visit again.'' | | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''A Pity. He seemed so fervent.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate 2:''' ''Intruder, over there!'' |
| | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''Oh God. Oh no. Save me!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''My Son, we are not Enemies.'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''Bishop Ravenscroft, you created a sworn enemy when you murdered my People.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''Confess.'' |
| | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''You know this Place. They Hate us here. When I turned the other Cheek, they took everything. We were cast out. Only Du Casse heard my Pleas. He taught us the Ways of his Order. Found us a new Home. By joining with him I bought time for this Church.'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''You paid for it with your Soul.'' |
| | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''When we fought back, our Tormentors began to fear us. We are winning, Abel. So, I summoned everyone I knew for a final push. But you defied me, Abel. And others would have followed if your people were not made an Example of.'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''The Villagers. My People. Their Murder was a Lesson?'' |
| | *'''Ravenscroft:''' ''Was it not a Lesson when the Lord ordered Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac? I took no pleasure in it, Abel. Faith compelled me to act. The Others were losing Faith and Resolve. The alliance with the Templars was going to fall apart. Some got brave, like you Abel. I was desperate. And it worked. The other Villages flocked to Kingston, begging for Protection. Our Numbers grew again. Your People's sacrifice served God's Will. Please, have Mercy. Are we not called to forgive?'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''The Lord may forgive you. But I do not.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Oh! You have the ingredients? You sure? I don't want to start cooking until you have everything.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''What? You don't trust me, Junjiro?''
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Okay, okay. Let's see what you brought.''
| |
| She handed over the shoyu.
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Yatta! You got the shoyu! What else?''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I brought konbu. Dried brown kelp. It's color is like the dirt path and it comes from the sea, having weathered many tides.''
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''That's perfect! Now let's see how it tastes...''
| |
| Junjiro finished the soup and tasted it.
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Mmm! The daikon and mochi in the konbu broth... so good! And the shoyu! Best of all, it's meaningful! I can't wait to make this for Master Sorin.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''It's kind of you to think of Master Sorin like this. You have a big heart, Junjiro.''
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''You think so? Do you think... do you think Yasuke believes that too?''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Yasuke more than anyone.''
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Then maybe I'll make some soup for him! But a different soup.''

| ==A Blade in the Light==
| | <!-- Missing, seem to be pirate barks |
| Naoe sets out to explore a legacy that will strengthen the bonds between Yagoro and the Assassins.
| | More Guns. The Bishop really has stepped into Du Casse's shoes. |
| | The Bishop's Orders are to kill anyone who approaches. |
| | I've never seen him like this. Were the Guns in Cape Bonavista that important? |
| | It were what happened to the Crew that has him afeared. Our best Men, gutted like Pigs. |

|
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I kept thinking back to that "blade made of shadows." The one Haru mentioned. My search brought me here.'' | | *'''Abel Galvão:''' Muito Obrigado (''Thank you''), Captain. I wasn't sure if I could do what had to be done.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I've been in there before. You should go in. I'm sure you'll find something worthwhile in there.''
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''What will you do now?'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I think we should go together, Miss Naoe.'' | | *'''Galvão:''' ''I can't say. How are my Villagers who joined you in Great Inagua? They must think poorly of me for becoming a Pirate again.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Your search brought us here, Yagoro. You deserve to go first.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''I am sure they do not.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''If you think so, Miss Naoe. I don't want to trespass.'' | | *'''Galvão:''' ''Thank you, Captain.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''You don't need anyone's permission to enter. You've earned your place here. Go. I'll be right behind.'' | |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Time to follow after Yagoro. Make sure everything's all right.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''The Padre's People have been hard at Work.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Oh, good. Yagoro's already here.'' | | *'''Henry Congreve:''' ''Well, it's not quite the Cathedral of Saint Paul. We've little in the way of Ornaments.'' |
| | *'''Diana Calverey:''' ''We don't need those. You've turned a musty old Hut into a Place of Worship. You did well, Henry.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''Miss Naoe, look! A real one!'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Mistress Calverley, how are you settling in?'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''It's what you wanted all this time. Go on. It won't bite.'' | | *'''Diana:''' ''This Place is livelier than what I am used to. I enjoy it, but I do miss the Padre's Cooking.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''But my training isn't done. I don't think I should have this.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''I am sure he can still host the odd Pig Roast.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Fubuki wanted someone to continue her work. Without her guidance, it's up to us to figure out what that means. Together. To honor those that came before.'' | | *'''Diana:''' ''Yes. If I know him, he still carries every one of us in his Heart. Be good to him, my Dear.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I... Thank you. I will devote my life to proving worthy of it. Can you do a favor for me? A proper... ceremony? From teacher to apprentice.'' | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''We've been over this, Yagoro. You are my ally. Not an apprentice.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Impressive Work, we had little use for that Derelict.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''Without you and Yasuke, I would still be lurking in the bushes outside bandit camps, daring myself to do something.'' | | *'''Henry:''' ''Thank you. How is the Padre holding up?'' |
| He bowed to her.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''The Work on the Ship gives him Purpose.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''Please, Miss Naoe. I feel like this requires something... proper.'' | | *'''Henry:''' ''Hmm. Keep him busy, Captain.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Fine. Um. Today, a brother joins those of us who work in the shadows to... um, welcome the light.'' | | [] |
| Naoe walked over to the chest containing the Hidden Blade.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''They've settled in well.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Wearing this blade comes with a promise and a path, fraught with difficulty. Sooner or later, you will lose your way. This blade cannot tell you where to go. It will only answer with more questions. But that is our journey. Trust in the promise you made to yourself and your home, and the path will show itself again. In the name of those who are lost, but whose spirit remains, I entrust this blade to you, Yagoro. Welcome to the Kakushiba ikki.'' | | [] |
| Naoe gave him the chest.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Your People are in good Spirits. Even built a Church. Would you like to take a look?'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''I will bring it back to Miss Tomiko's. Place it somewhere for all to see. To remind everyone of those who walked this path before. And to greet those who have yet to walk it.'' | | *'''Galvão:''' ''Perhaps, another Time.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''You're not going to wear it?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Do you still see yourself as a Man of God?'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''It's a fine weapon, but... the weight is different from my own. It would affect my balance. I got my real blade a long time ago. The day our paths first crossed.'' | | *'''Galvão:''' ''A Man of God? I am a Man of the Sea. A Man of the Sword. I am a Believer and I am a Killer. There is no Refuge for my Sort. This World does not forgive, nor does it forget. The Jackdaw is Home now.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''How long have you been holding onto that one?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''You've met the Assassins. They're Killers too, and they wouldn't turn you out.'' |
| *'''Yagoro:''' ''As a man of Kakushiba ikki, I must keep my secrets close.''
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''I've had enough of Orders and Titles. The Ocean is a wide and wild Expanse. Perhaps God created it for Wanderers like you and me? Those caught between Heaven and Hell.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Very good. Let's go, Yagoro.'' | |

| | ===No Box Dark Enough=== |
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''I didn't take you for a petal-picking sort.'' |
| | *'''Tobias Smith:''' ''To pluck is to end. You Love. You lose. I mentioned a Commander. Did I? No matter.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''The Man who put you in a box? Vile business, Tobias.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''So it goes. Should I be spared? When others face the Box, should I stand aside and tinker with Cannons?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Well, there are no Boxes here and we hoped you would help us with some improvements on the Jackdaw.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''My knobby Hands once fashioned deadly instruments, to be sure. I can't be sure. Can I trust Memory? I see the Mortars I made for the Commander, stout and of uncommon Strength and Quality.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Well then, I would like to have a look at those. Where are they now?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''A dark Place. A place of Screams. A Theatre of Cruelty. The Seas of Punta Guarico, on an Island called Petite Caverne. If the Mortars are to be found, they are there, or thereabouts.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''The sooner we find this Cave, the better the Jackdaw will be for it.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I expect it won't be as easy as sailing in and taking the Weapons.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Who can know. If much is as it was, Petite Caverne is well-guarded. The Commander keeps the Weapons under Lock and Key.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Hmm. Not exactly ripe for the picking, then.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''How did you discover you had a knack for tinkering? Was it with the Privateers?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Yes.'' |
| | [a pause] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''All right, then.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''We're here.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'll wait outside the Cavern.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Expect me, shortly.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Lads, keep the Jackdaw out of Sight. Find us when we're done!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You stayed in this dank Place? Tell me there was somewhere to call Home before this.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''There was an Island where I felt warmth. Contentment? I was a different man.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''We all were, Mate. What was this Island called?'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''How long must we wait?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''They come after dark. It will be worth it. The Commander hungers for Power. My Guns sate his Appetite.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Two there. Careful, now.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''British soldier 1:''' ''Where is the Commander?'' |
| | *'''British soldier 2:''' ''Up ahead, on the Dock. Best not bother him, he's busy with his... Tests.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 1:''' ''That's the problem. We're running out of Boxes for the Bodies.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 2:''' ''I'm bettin' he goes for the left Arm on the next.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 3:''' ''Jaysus, Man. Careful you don't take on the Commander's cruel indifference.'' |
| | *'''British soldier 2:''' ''Or will it be an Eye?'' |
| | *'''British soldier 3:''' ''You're hopeless.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''At last.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''So much for a quiet approach. Aim true, Smith!'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Easy, Man! Christ!'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''A Debt was owed. No more.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''The Commander is ahead if I'm right.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You don't seem too concerned with the Weapons. That's why we're here.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''It is a hateful and wicked Bargain but it is ours.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Smith, I took you to be caught in Death's Shadow. Now I see you're the one casting it.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate:''' ''No, no! Please, I don't want to go in there!'' |
| | *'''British Officer 1:''' ''Shut your mouth and do what you're told.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Pirate:''' ''Tobias? Brother! It's you!'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Hurry. The Ship outside. Go.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''On. Moving on. We must move on.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Commander Cyrus:''' ''Bring another one in and clear the Mess of the last.'' |
| | *'''British Officer 2:''' ''There was a nice Ring on that one.'' |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' ''Yes, leave it, that's mine.'' |
| | *'''British Officer 2:''' ''Ugh, the Stench...'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''That's him.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''British Officer 3:''' ''The Devil? Who are you?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Memory fading. Mind failing. What else?'' |
| | *'''British Officer 3:''' ''Are you simple?'' |
| | *'''British Officer 4:''' ''Why are you here? Filthy Rat!'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Why am I here? No matter. What will I do? That is the Question.'' |
| | *'''British Officer 5:''' ''Who are you? Stop!'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''A mere bag of Bones and Dust. As are we all. Let us hasten your Decay.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' '' Who are you?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''He's yours, Smith.'' |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' ''You.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' ''What? All of this for some Flowers? Maybe I should have looked closer at you. And taken more.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' ''You piece of Shit. That's all you are, Dirt and Water.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Cyrus:''' ''I broke you open and looked inside. And you know what I found? Nothing. You're empty. You're a Puppet! A Nobody! You're Nothing!'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''There is no Box dark enough. But this will do.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''What? Not even a Smile? We exorcised your Demon! Live a little, Man.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''He is gone. Yes. But the Shadow on my Soul remains.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''I need to see Crooked Island. There's a Village there. After that, the Mortars.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Are there more parts you need at Crooked Island.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''What is it Smith? What is there that you need?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Love. Long dimmed, nearly gone. Not gone.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''We are bound for Crooked Island, then. But I need those Mortars to be set right after our visit.'' |

| [Naoe approached him] | | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''Tell me about this Island we're headed to. Was it your Home?'' |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Naoe, have you seen Master Sorin? His letter said this was the place, so I know he's got to be around here somewhere.'' | | [pause] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Take a breath, Junjiro. I'll find him. Maybe I can ask around.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''All right, I'll go first.[beat] I came of age on a Farm. We are Shepherds, us Kenways. But I wanted more, for my Family... for me. So I took to the Seas, and here I am.'' |
| | *'''Tobias Smith:''' ''I was born in Barbados. I've little Memory of it. Maybe I wasn't. Who can say now with all that's happened.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''And Crooked Island?'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''I stole away there as a Youth. Met my Wife. A sunny Place. Fine People. A different Time. A short Time. I fell in with some Pirates. It was them who taught me to use Firearms and Machines. Then the British came. One of their Raids. No warning. Men, Women, Children, no matter. Taken and gone. You know the rest.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's over now. Let's hope your Wife awaits your Return with open Arms.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''It is Hope that's brought me the most Pain these last Years.'' |
| | [] |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''There it is, Crooked Island. There's Smoke.'' |
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Something's amiss.'' |

| | *'''African civilian 2:''' ''Mark, Mark! Wake up, Man!'' |
| | *'''British soldier 4:''' ''Too late for Him. That should teach you lot to try to escape.'' |

| | [other fight] |
| | *'''British soldier 6:''' ''Knaves! Off with you!'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I'm looking for an elder monk named Sorin. Have you seen him?'' | | *'''African civilian 2:''' ''Mark, my Friend, we're Saved! Please open your Eyes!'' |
| *'''Merchant:''' ''Ah, another pilgrim? There are so many, it is hard to know one from the others. Like ants marching along the trails. Ask someone at the pagoda. If your monk has paid a visit, they'll know.''
| |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Buddhist monk:''' ''Greetings, miss. Are you a pilgrim?'' | | *'''African civilian 3:''' ''Thank you, thank you!'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''No, but I'm trying to find one. An elder monk named Sorin?''
| |
| *'''Buddhist monk:''' ''Ah, Sorin, yes. A funny old man. Kind. Surprisingly stubborn.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I don't think you can get to be his age without a stubborn streak.''
| |
| *'''Buddhist monk:''' ''He refused to stay in the inn or monks' quarters, however much I pushed, preferring instead to camp just downstream of the waterfall. He said, "If I'm to pray for longevity, I might as well do it properly." I'm sure you can find him there.''
| |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Have you seen an elderly monk here recently? He's traveling alone, on a pilgrimage.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Hah! They fled back to the Sea.'' |
| *'''Woman:''' ''An elder alone on Kumano's Kodo? Which route? There are many, and some are treacherous without a guide.'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''They will return.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I'm not sure. He didn't say.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''This place is safe, for now. Let's find your Home?'' |
| *'''Woman:''' ''Well, I did see an elderly man, east of that shrine down the hill. There's a forest path leading away from the buildings. His camp was at one of the trails' ends. Maybe he's your monk.'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''Yes.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Lead the Way.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Master Sorin. It has been a long time.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''You're uneasy.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''Ah. Dear Naoe. So you've found me at last. I knew you would.'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''I don't know this place like I did. Not no more.'' |
| Junjiro ran in.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''It has been... some Years. Should I let you get on with it?'' |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Master Sorin!''
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''No. Come. I do not know if my Wife will remember me.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''Junjiro. My dear boy.''
| | [] |
| Yasuke joined the trio, bowing to the monk.
| | *'''Edward:''' ''The House is in ruins. A Grave.'' |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''Is this where you are staying, Master Sorin? It's so dirty and small and... not enough firewood. But I can help! And so can Yasuke!'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''My Wife. May she rest.'' |
| Junjiro led Yasuke away.
| | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I know now. About Junjiro's father. I don't like it, but... I understand.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''She never forgot you.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''The weight of the whole truth would have done nothing to help you.'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''She gave me this. "As long as they persist, so will we," she said. Flowers die, dry, and rot. I did not say it then. I failed her. All Love must end with one saying goodbye to the other. She was my Light. It is Darkness once more.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Still. You let me be his friend. When you both knew what I had done.'' | | [] |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''I regret none of it.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''I have said goodbye to many Friends, Close and True. The Ache never leaves.'' |
| Junjiro's and Yasuke's laughter reached the pair.
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Upon my Death, bury me next to she is all I ask.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''And neither does he, I'd say.'' | | [] |
| They turn to the waterfall.
| | *'''Tobias:''' ''Edward. Thank you. I know little of this World. Almost nothing. But I had to know my Wife's Fate.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''Nachi Falls. Beautiful, isn't it? It's said to be the home of a kami, a native incarnation of a Buddha. Hiryu Gongen. It is a lovely reminder that all manner of things can coexist if one has an open mind.''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You can be a dark Cloud over calm Waters, Smith. But we'll put some Cheer on those Bones yet. It's been a pleasure to get to know you, Smith.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''How did you know it would work? Putting Junjiro and me together.'' | | *'''Tobias:''' ''Thank you, Captain.'' |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''The soul has a shape. Edges, angles. You can see when two people fit.. When they will be... better together. Life is miraculous. I leave the boy with you at a farm and now here you are, in the company of an... unusual samurai.'' | |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Yasuke is a good warrior and a better man. I can think of few others who I'd like in Junjiro' life. Is the journey long? The one you're on?'' | |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''Indeed. The Saigoku Kannon pilgrimage is quite long. And I've barely begun. Only circled around to its proper beginning.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''You're brave, Master Sorin. To attempt a trek of this magnitude, at your age.'' | |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''I will go as far as my legs can carry me. But the whisper of worry in your voice warms this old man's heart.''
| |
| Junjiro and Yasuke returned with firewood.
| |
| *'''Junjiro:''' ''I'll collect water next to make soup! I've been practicing and I came up with something really special.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Oh, you will collect it, will you?'' | |
| *'''Sorin:''' ''I look forward to it.''

Though a thousand mouths have spoken words claiming their veracity, it is my aim to make the truest telling of the tale of Kazan Yamaoka.<br><br>Despite a tenuous calm that had settled in many populated parts, petty chaos continued to ravage the countryside in the region surrounding the Yamaoka lands. Thieves went unpunished and wastrels masqueraded as samurai, killing for pleasure. The old samurai, Renjiro Yamaoka, lamented the fall of his noble class. It angered him not only that the land was unsafe, but that his age prevented him from taking up his katana to defend the honor of the samurai and bring about peace.<br><br>This anger was shared by, and burned even more intensely in the heart of, his son Kazan, who longed to prove himself to his father. He wanted to restore the standing of the samurai, tarnished by the worthless men for whom honor meant nothing.<br><br>It is unknown if any outrage in particular spurred Kazan to action, but a day came when he took up his father's sword and set out to make the world right in his eyes. One after another, many men fell beneath his blade. As his toll grew, so did his viciousness. His killings took on an aspect of macabre cruelty and humiliation, as if he intended a greater warning to others with each subsequent outrage. Rumors of an avenging Oni stalking the land spread amongst the country folk.<br><br>Ast eh rain pelted his gore-encrusted armor one night, a lone samurai stepped out into his path. Kazan could see this was no imposter. Here was a true samurai. He called out to the stranger, "You are not my enemy. The honor of the samurai is a duty we share." His words seemed to assuage the stranger, as his stance softened slightly, but he quickly regained his resolve and raised his katana (sword) with intent. "You share no honor of mine." He replied, somewhat shakily to Kazan’s ear. They engaged. And though for a time Kazan felt he may indeed have more trouble than expected, he ultimately prevailed.<br><br>Yet the downed samurai would not relent. He could not stand, but still he raised his katana (sword) and spat blood. Kazan pushed the katana (sword) away and bent to remove the samurai’s helmet, intending to deliver a killing blow, only to recognize the face of his own father. It was then that the elderly samurai delivered a killing blow to himself, with a look of savage disgust.<br><br>Kazan, rent to his core with shame and fury, roared to the sky over the corpse of his disapproving father. When at last his breath was exhausted, he opened his blood-reddened eyes, and they were no longer the eyes of Kazan Yamaoka.<br><br>Before he could get to his feed, half a dozen harvesting forks pierced his heart. Accompanied by the searing pain, he heard the shouts of the men of his own village. Men he grew up with worked the fields with, drank sake with; they were the ones to honor his father by taking his life and ending Kazan’s merciless campaign of blood.<br><br>Soon, those closed to the warm stench of slaughter began to choke on a black mist far fouler than a hundred rotting corpses. Despite the frenzy, the mob’s carnage gave way to the thickening smoke, and they receded to reveal that Kazan was gone, seemingly dispersed into the wind along with the black fumes.<br><br>These are events to which I cannot attest but which conform most consistently to the accounts of the ones purporting to know. The similarities I offer as my best efforts of corroboration. None my know what truly transpired.<br><br>Talk of him still mingles on the sake-loosened tongues of farm-folk in many quarters. Some claim Kazan has since been disfigured by rage and unearthly malevolence. None have seen him and lived it seems, for each account is preceded by "I hear…" None can be trusted.<br><br>Be wary upon your travels,<br><br>H. L.}}

| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Worry less about the destination, focus on the journey. Feel the breeze and enjoy yourself.''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I suppose the ship is with Hades now?'' |
| *'''Rin:''' ''Easy for you to say when you were born in the saddle!'' | | *'''Lucy:''' ''No. It's with the Crabs and the Eels and the Dirt.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''The best advice I was told was to simply believe you can do it.'' | |
| *'''Rin:''' ''That - whoa - explains a lot.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Stop thinking of her as an animal, and as a friend instead. Right now, she's just as worried as you.''

| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''The... waterfall?''
| |
| *'''Rin:''' ''That too.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Waterfalls soothe me. I do not know if it is the noise, or the flow... It calms me. Do you think you will master horse riding?''
| |
| *'''Rin:''' ''Well, my teacher is unorthodox. But yes. In time. We only have each other, after all. We need time to practice and grow accustomed to one another.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Are you talking about the horse or your "unorthodox teacher?"''
| |
| *'''Rin:''' ''I will leave that to your imagination, sensei.''

| |
| *'''Rin:''' ''Not within days? Yasuke, how little you know me. All the same, I will practice. There is little else to occupy me.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Next time I see you, not only will you be a master rider, this stray horse will have a name.''

| *'''Naoe:''' ''What happened?'' | | *'''Lucy Baldwin:''' ''Are we in the Business of righting wrongs now?'' |
| *'''Thug:''' ''After our usual meal, our insides howled and churned like the wind in a storm. He can barely move. She poisoned us!''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''If it pays.'' |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''Do not blame your weak little stomachs on me.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''There must be a reason you blame her.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Have you not heard the rumors? Oni-yuri, the lone flower. A strange girl living in an abandoned hamlet. She was caught trying to escape from the kitchen. It is plain that she's the cause of this!''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''That does cast some doubt onto her innocence.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''That's not all. She's rotten, like her father. We used to work with him, the cheating bastard.''
| |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''My father cannot be blamed when you do not know the prices on the market.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''He's gone now, hah. An ending deserving of a dog-faced pirate.'' [spits]
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Your father was a pirate?''
| |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''Mmm. My father was not a pirate. How could you accuse a poor, defenseless orphan like me?'' | |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Orphan or not, nothing matters when you lie.''
| |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''Mmm. Big sister, they wound me. I was merely trying to find scraps in their revolting kitchen. Please, help prove my innocence.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''No, we deal with you now. Punish her!''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Do not touch her. Not until we know the truth.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Do what you want, but we will hold her here until you return. We had our meal there, at the room down the road.''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''We'll be back.''

| [] | | [] |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''The girl seems... unpredictable. Are you sure she's telling the truth?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''There, the HMS Defiance.'' |

| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''And what if she did poison that man?''
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''That is what we will find out.''
| |
| [Play as Naoe]
| |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''The kitchen should have the answers we seek.''
| |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''I will look around for clues.''
| |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I should start looking where the men had their meal.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Compliments of Milo van der Graaff.'' |
| | |
| | ===Eye For An Eye=== |
| | *'''Milo Van Der Graaff:''' ''Captain! My Thanks for your timely Help with those troublesome Spaniards. If you are inclined, I have Work befitting a Man of your Talents. This Work is of the high Risk, high Reward kind.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I need to take a closer look.'' | | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Come, walk with me so the eager Ears around us don't hear the fullness of my Proposal.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''The broth bowls are empty. They drank it all.'' | | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''You know, those clothes could catch the Attention of Coin starved Pirates as much as your Proposal.'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''You have a good Eye, Sir. These Garments come specially tailored from the Dutch Republic.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''You said something about a high Reward...'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Like so many Others, I sailed from my Homeland to seek a new Destiny across the water. Then, tragedy struck. A cruel Storm beat my small Fleet like a disobedient Cabin Boy. It's a Miracle my Ships made it to Havana without paying a Toll to the Rocks near port.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Yes, you made it to Shore and now here we are.'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Indeed! And rather than bemoan my ill Fortune, I grounded my Company here with a view to recoup my Losses through expeditious Trade. So was born the naïve but noble Van der Graaff Company of today.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''And where do I fit in to all of this?'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Ah, yes. Well, recently a Spanish Fleet sailing under the name San Lorenzo seized my best Frigate.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Now we come to it.'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Indeed. I recognize that you may be of some Help to me in this, Captain. I would, of course, Reward you handsomely.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''I'm agreeable to those Terms. Let's send a Message to this San Lorenzo.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I should check the kitchen where the broth was prepared.'' | | *'''Lucy Baldwin:''' ''A Dutch Businessman. Is he trustworthy?'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''He buys my Services, not my Faith. As long there's Coin in it, I see nothing wrong.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Ugh, the stench. Like a village dung heap.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''The San Lorenzo. We've got you now.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Ugh, these radishes are rotten. Some are missing. Would anyone eat these?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Let's see how the San Lorenzo fares against the Jackdaw.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''This broth was tampered with. Could this be what made the men sick?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''The mighty San Lorenzo, as with so many Spanish tales, was taller in the telling.'' |
| | |
| | ===Blind Justice=== |
| | *'''Milo Van Der Graaff:''' ''Captain, I hear the San Lorenzo has gone to a watery Grave. Splendid job! My noble Company could use your Talents for another Venture, just find me when you are ready.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Purple powder... ground from aconite flowers. Best not to touch. But what is it doing here?'' | | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Walk with me Captain, I am in pursuit of a hearty Drink.'' |
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''What needs doing this Time? Are there more Spanish to sink?'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Worse! This time the Blight is not the Spanish, but those poxy Brits. They have in their possession a Man'o'War, a Vessel of violent beauty. A Ship so ferociously fair, the mere sight of it could turn the hardest Heart to Jelly. However, the Vessel is piloted by a Rogue who presumptuously calls himself Captain.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Let me Guess, you want him gone?'' |
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''One need only to don the Mantle of Justice and strike down this Charlatan as Virtue demands. By One, I mean you, Captain. Knock this Man from the Helm, and send him into the merciless Sea. Only leave the Vessel unviolated for my Company to justly liberate.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Consider the Pretender gone.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I found everything I need.'' | | *'''Abel Galvão:''' ''The World is beset with Falsehood.'' |
| | *'''Edward:''' ''That's a Dour observation for you, Padre.'' |
| | *'''Galvão:''' ''Yet True.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Elderly Woman:''' ''I clean when I want to. Nobody comes in my kitchen - they're too busy putting food in their mouths. If you are done intruding, please leave. I have radishes to chop.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''That's the Tub we're looking for, and it's got an Escort.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Should have never started working with pirates.''<!-- Note: Subtitles have this speaker as "Man" but it's the same thug as the start.--> | | *'''Edward:''' ''The false Captain is no more. Van der Graaff will be pleased.'' |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''I'm surprised anyone wanted to work with you.'' | | |
| *'''Thug:''' ''You will be exposed, poisonous rat.''
| | ===Papers, Please=== |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''Do you speak to your wife with that mouth? Oh, I forgot. She left you.''
| | *'''Milo Van Der Graaff:''' ''Ah! Good Captain, I have been awaiting your return! Excellent Job putting an end to that British Pretender. You have all the Riches and Glory you need, of course. Still, I can always use your help when you're willing.'' |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Thug:''' ''So, what did you find?'' | | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Good Captain, better Friend! Come! I was just headed to the Alehouse. Well, it's more of an Ale counter, isn't it?'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Only that the broth you ate did not look right.''
| | *'''Edward Kenway:''' ''Who are we after this Time, Milo?'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''It might have been tampered with.''
| | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''Not a Who, but a What! Aboard the HMS Courage are some Papers that implicate legitimate Businessmen like myself in... Shall we say, illicit, Activities. Obvious Slander and Lies! They only seek to sully the good Name of my Company.'' |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Brat, you have been caught! You snuck something into our food, didn't you? Admit it.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''We can't have that.'' |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''That kitchen is filthy. The vegetables are rotten, and the stench is disgusting. This is not my fault.'' | | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''No, no, no. We can't have that at all. Shall I leave it to you, Captain?'' |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Don't trust the words of a pirate's daughter. She poisoned us!'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''I'll take care of it.'' |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''Stop bringing my father into this!'' | | *'''Van Der Graaff:''' ''I knew you wouldn't leave me in the Lurch for too long! Purge the Lies that besmirch a Good Name!'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Oni-yuri is not to blame. The vegetables you ate reek of rot. And your kitchen is disgusting.''
| |
| *'''Thug:''' ''Horseshit! It is very clean.'' | |
| *'''Oni-yuri:''' ''As clean as your outhouse. Are you done with your foolishness? I have better things to do. Thank you, big sister, samurai. You've been a big help to me. But our paths end here. Goodbye!'' | |
| *'''Thug:''' ''You will not escape, lying rat. Get her!''
| |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''There is something odd about Oni-yuri. She acts too sweet, too innocent. The vegetables were rotten, but what about the powder? What if she really did poison the men?'' | | *'''Abel Galvão:''' ''The only Lie we care about is the one that's true.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Even if she did poison them, she did not kill. Only caused mild discomfort. Maybe these men wronged her, somehow. Or her father.''
| | *'''Edward:''' ''Best to keep that Insight to yourself around Milo.'' |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''The possible pirate. We need to know more before we decide whether to trust her. And before she inflicts mild discomfort on somebody else.'' | |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Yasuke:''' ''Let us look into Oni Yuri's past.'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''We can't have false papers damaging the Van der Graaff Name. We'll see how much bravado the HMS Courage carries.'' |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''I'll get started.''
| |
| [] | | [] |
| *'''Naoe:''' ''Oni-yuri... what are you hiding?'' | | *'''Edward:''' ''Only room for so many Liars on these seas.'' |
