Revision as of 02:44, 2 August 2013
The Midnight Ride was a virtual representation of one of Ratonhnhaké:ton's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.
Description
Connor was visited at the Davenport Homestead by a courier, sent by Paul Revere, who gave him information about John Pitcairn's location.
Dialogue
- Connor: William Johnson is dead – and with him the Templar plot to steal the land of my people. But in ending this threat, I have revealed another. On his body was a letter addressed to John Pitcairn, containing orders to root out and destroy Patriot weapons and supplies. Should he succeed in this, the colonists will be unable to maintain their resistance and the Templars will surely take control. So long as Pitcairn lives, the danger remains. I need to find him. He needs to die.
Connor and Achilles Davenport met in the manor's secret basement.
- Connor: I thought it might bring clarity. Or instill a sense of accomplishment. But all I feel is regret.
- Achilles: Hold fast to that. Such sacrifices must never come lightly.
- Connor: I had to do it. Not only for my people, but for all the others Johnson would have harmed.
- Achilles: It's a start. But to truly be free of Templar influence, all of them must be dealt with in turn. Even your father.
- Connor: I know.
- Achilles: You speak the words, but do you believe them? Seems we've company.
Achilles met a courier at the front door.
- Connor: What is it?
- Achilles: A request for aid from Paul Revere. Seems the Redcoats are up to something in Boston. Guess you made an impression on the Sons of Liberty.
- Connor: They mistake me for one of their own. Please tell Mister Revere he has my sympathies, but I cannot help at present.
- Achilles: You might wish to reconsider: John Pitcairn is mentioned by name.
- Connor: Where am I to go?
- Courier: Mister Revere's house in Boston. If you'd like I can...
Connor traveled to Boston and met with Paul Revere.
- Paul: Ah, Connor. What a relief! You came! Allow me to... to introduce you to William Dawes and Robert Newman.
- Connor: Your letter said John Pitcairn was here.
- Paul: Aye. He's readying an assault on Lexington, where Adams and Hancock have taken shelter. After that, he will march on Concord – hoping to destroy our weapons and supplies. You must help us!
- Connor: Only tell me where to find him and I will put a stop to this.
- Paul: He has dozens, if not hundreds, of soldiers at his command. You cannot hope to match him by yourself. But fear not – for you will not have to! We have an entire army of our own – merely awaiting the order to take up arms.
- Connor: Then you must call upon them.
- Paul: Indeed, you and I will cross the Charles river and rouse the boys. William, I need you to take the overland route and do the same. Robert, I need you up in Christ Church. Light the signal. Two lanterns – our enemy comes by sea! No time for dawdling, my friend! We have lives to save. Come on!
Connor and Paul traveled to the Frontier by boat, from where they made their way to several safe houses by horse.
- Paul: Ah. They've only left a single horse. We'll have to ride together. Ah, you take the reins. I'll navigate. Quickly, Connor! Get on the horse. I'll guide you towards those we need to alert! Follow my directions and we'll be done in no time! This is it. You've got the right place.
As they approached Munroe Tavern, they noticed the British Army on patrol.
- Paul: Redcoats! What are they doing here?
- Connor: They must be scouts.
The door to the first safe house nearby was opened.
- Paul: Spread the word! The Regulars are coming out.
- Rebel: At once!
After another stop, Connor and Revere came to the next house.
- Paul: The regulars are coming!
- Redcoat: Here. WE'RE HERE. GET THEM!
Connor and Paul then escaped from the Redcoats and made their way to Samuel Prescott.
- Paul: Where the devil is he?
- Connor: Are you sure we are in the right place?
- Paul: Sure I'm sure! Prescott?
- Samuel: Evening, gents.
- Paul: Listen, the Regulars are out. You need to rally your men... And put on some trousers!
- Samuel: At once.
They then rode to Lexington.
- Paul: Welcome to Lexington, Connor. Now let's find Hancock and Adams. Hmmm. No sign of Dawes. I hope he's alright.
They entered the house where Adams and Hancock were hiding.
- Samuel: Paul. Connor. Good to see you.
- Connor: You need to leave. The Redcoats are coming.
- Samuel: Aye, so William's told us. Let them conduct their little search. They'll find nothing.
- Connor: You don't understand. Pitcairn intends to kill you.
- Paul: I'm afraid it's true.
- Samuel: I suppose we have no choice then, but to go. What of you three?
- Paul: Dawes and I will continue on to Concord. Connor, it's best you stay here and help our man John Parker hold the town. It'll give us time to spread the word.
Outcome
The militia in Lexington were alerted of John Pitcairn's march towards them, and preparations were made to defend the town.
