Parentage

Given the location and time of his birth, and given the vague dialogue, this has to be Desmond's son. However, I realize that there is one alternative; it could also be William's, as the boy's patrilineal line is exactly the same as Desmond's, and leaves out Desmond's matrilineal line. Thoughts? -- Master Sima Yi _Talk 12:23, October 31, 2015 (UTC)

William doesn't strike me as the type who'd cheat on his wife, highly unlikely. As for his ancestry, any ancestor from your father's side is your patrilineal ancestor by definition. Your paternal grandmother and all of her ancestors are your patrilineal ancestors by the simple fact that they are the ancestors of your father. --The Wikia Editor (talk) 12:54, November 3, 2015 (UTC)

There is also a third possibility, the boy could also be the son of a not yet introduced brother of William, thus being the nephew of William and the cousin of Desmond and sharing their patrilineal lineage. Or if we put aside the location and time of his birth, and the dialogue obviously mentionning that he is related to Desmond, he could also be a distant cousin of Desmond like Kaczmarek, with whom he shared many ancestors while not being directly related.

Probably a distant cousin or an illegitimate cousin. Not Kaczmarek though since his line came from an illegitimate kid of Ezio, meaning its unlikely he's connected to the Kenways. Is no one going to talk about the child's midwest ancestor? This gave me hope for a 19th century midwest AC game. If we ever have one of those, we'd probably meet the unnamed female Assassin from the comics. Misphantom (talk) 11:22, November 10, 2015 (UTC)
