Biography
Prior to the Seven Years' War, Kaniehti:io was captured and specially escorted to the slaver Silas Thatcher, along with other members of her tribe. However, her convoy was hijacked by Haytham Kenway and his men, which led to her and her fellow Natives' freedom.
Later, Haytham decided that Kaniehti:io would be a vital ally in helping his Order find the precursor site that they were looking for, as the First Civilization were considered to be sacred gods by Kaniehti:io's people.
After befriending one another, Haytham gained her trust by retrieving military plans from a fort, which allowed the pair to plan an ambush on Edward Braddock as his troops marched to Fort Duquesne. On the assassination of Braddock, Haytham and Kaniehti:io traveled to find the entrance to the Temple, however, the amulet that Haytham had in his possession gathered no results.
At this point, the two revealed their feelings for one another, and shared an embrace, which later led on to the conception of a son, Ratohnhake:ton. Years later, Kanieht:io would realize that the man she loved was a Templar, and began to fear that her son might inherit his malevolent father's ambitions.
Kaniehti:io's village was attacked by George Washington and the British Army sometime during the Seven Years' War, and in the attack, Kaniehti:tio perished due to being pinned beneath burning rubble. As he was assaulted by Charles Lee early on, her son Ratonhnhaké:ton would go on to believe that Lee and the Templars had burned down the village and killed his mother, until his father Haytham finally told him the truth as the pair confronted George Washington years later.
