Plot summary
Following the attack on the Mandarin's House, Edward Kenway and Madam Lee sit down for tea and talk. Lee begins by asking what the Assassins' intent in Macau is, to which Edward responds by questioning Lee's motives for buying Hendrik's sea log. After pointing out that they share a common enemy in the ninja that attacked them, Edward suggests that it would be best if they both stopped keeping secrets from each other.
Lee agrees and reveals that she discovered the existence of both the Assassins and Templars through her trade network. While having no interest in their ongoing conflict, she was initially willing to work with either side as long as it benefited her. Edward remarks that this is similar to his way of thinking when he first learned of the Assassins and Templars, before he discovered the latter's true goals.
Lee continues, revealing that after several Dutch East India Company ships went missing in the Strait of Malacca, her company was framed for the incident, causing her business to suffer. It was during time that Hendrik, looking for a way to return to the ruins of Angkor he had discovered, approached Lee to ask her to sponsor an expedition there. She turned him down, but was secretly intrigued by Hendrik's tales of the riches he had allegedly found, and thus decided to keep an eye on him. After Hendrik's death, Lee bought his sea log from the bank where he had been keeping it, intending to hold on to it as collateral.
As Edward and Lee take a stroll outside, the latter continues to recount her story. She reveals that, shortly after her purchase of Hendrik's log, she was approached by a man who claimed to be speaking on behalf of her rival trading companies. The man, secretly a Templar, demanded the log in exchange for ceasing all interference against Lee's business, but she refused to hand it over, suspecting the log to be more valuable than she had thought at first.
As Lee finishes her story, she realizes that the Templars are serious about finding Angkor and that they never intended to hold their end of their bargain with her. After Edward reveals that the Templars are the ones who killed Hendrik and that they are likely working with Lee's business rivals, he proposes an alliance. In exchange for dealing with the Templars, which should also weaken Lee's rivals, and recovering Hendrik's sea log, Edward asks Lee to sponsor his expedition to find Angkor. Lee agrees and Edward leaves to meet up with John Young, who is waiting near his ship.
Elsewhere, Shimazu Saito discovers that all the information in Hendrik's sea log pertaining to Angkor is encrypted. Deducing the cipher needed to decode it is in Edward's possession, the Templar orders their men to find and capture the Assassin.
