A Room with a View

A Room with a View was a virtual representation of one of Evie Frye's genetic memories, relived by a Helix initiate through the Helix Navigator.

Description

While Jacob worked on ending Starrick's control of London's transport, Evie searched for the Shroud of Eden at the Monument.

Dialogue

Jacob, Evie and Henry discussed their plans.

• Henry: Owning the railway wasn't enough. Now Starrick has bought an omnibus company as well. I suppose he wants to control the neighborhood's workers and keep them under his thumb.
• Jacob: Pearl Attaway is Starrick's competitor, is she? Perhaps it's time I went into business.
• Henry: And Ms. Frye? What are your plans?
• Evie: I studied the history we recovered from the Kenway Mansion's hidden room. I'm off to a certain monument.

Evie and Jacob looked at the Monument from a nearby rooftop.

• Jacob: So the "hints" you found in the Kenway house lead... to the Monument?
• Evie: What a wonderful use of your time, following me around asking obvious questions.
• Jacob: Well, since Henry isn't here, I thought you might enjoy the company.
• Evie: I don't require any company. And Mr. Green is following up on some leads of his own.
• Jacob: "Oh, yes, Mr. Green. That's a fascinating idea". "Oh, please, Mr. Green, come and take a look at this book and stand oh-so-close to me, Mr. Green.
• Evie: I do not- Well, perhaps you have nothing better to do, but I am busy protecting the Assassins.
• Jacob: Are you, really? What was it Father used to say...
• Evie: "Don't allow personal feelings to compromise the mission".
• Jacob: Precisely. Anyway, I'm off. If I find any more wild geese for you to chase, I'll be in touch.

Jacob left.

• Evie: It will be all the more pleasant for your absence.

A woman held a speech in front of the Monument.

• Speaker: Please, show some respect for our guests! Our new proposal will ensure that these slums will be replaced with better, safer houses.

Evie at the top of the monument

Evie placed a disc in a mechanism at the base of the Monument. Atop the Monument, a ring on the sculpture turned. After making her way up there, Evie placed a disc on the sculpture, which depicted St. Paul.

• Evie: This looks familiar.

Evie looked over at St Paul's Cathedral. Making her way there, she ascended the cathedral and placed two discs on the back of a statue's base, which then opened to reveal a compartment with cogwheels. Evie rotated the cogwheels in the right direction, opening a hatch to a room atop the cathedral's main tower. Making her way up there, she found a key.

• Evie: The key to the vault... and the Shroud.

She put on the necklace to which the vault key was attached and inspected it. Lucy Thorne then appeared.

• Thorne: Good day, Ms. Frye. I'll take that.
• Evie: You want the Shroud to cement your own power - but what if you cannot control it?
• Thorne: And why do you want the Shroud? Merely to keep the Templars from having it. How like an Assassin - to hold the power of eternal life, and yet be too afraid to use it.
• Evie: Eternal life? Is that what you think the Shroud offers?
• Thorne: What I think is no longer your concern.

Thorne crashing through a window pane

Evie and Thorne fought. After the latter was knocked down, she tossed a smoke bomb at Evie, and the two entered a struggle. Thorne lunged at Evie, but the Assassin side-stepped the attack; however, as she crashed through a nearby window, Thorne grabbed onto Evie's necklace and gradually dragged her opponent down with her.

• Thorne: Coming with me?
• Evie: I have other plans.

Evie cut through the necklace, causing Thorne to drop to the balcony below. After recovering from the fight, Evie looked out of the broken window and saw that her nemesis had escaped.

• Evie: Damn it!

Outcome

Although Evie found the key to the vault holding the Shroud, Lucy Thorne managed to take it from her.
