La Boca del Diablo (memory)
| This article is about Alonzo Batilla's genetic memory. You may be looking for the location itself. |
La Boca del Diablo was a virtual representation of one of Alonzo Batilla's genetic memories, relived by a research analyst at Abstergo Entertainment through the Animus Omega.[1]
Description
Having decrypted La Buse's message detailing his location, Alonzo traveled to La Boca del Diablo to ascertain the Fragment of Eden's whereabouts.
Dialogue
Alonzo brought the Wanderer near a beach as night loomed overhead.
- Alonzo: We're closer to this godforsaken place than I ever want to be...
- Jumao: I hope we find La Buse before the mountain starts spitting fire!
- Aaminah: I see a ship over there!... Fishermen! They must have seen something!
- Alonzo: Only one way to find out!
Alonzo sailed ahead to question the fishers.
- Alonzo: Hello, madam! Did you see a ship pass through here?... A black ship with black sails?
- Fisherwoman: I did see this ship... It sailed to the north... and fast... Another ship was chasing it.
- Alonzo: Another ship?
- Fisherwoman: A Spanish warship... The largest I ever saw!
- Alonzo: Thanks, friend! There's no time to waste! We must hurry before La Buse is caught!
Alonzo set out to find La Buse and reached the first location, which was full of naval mines.
- Alonzo: Only mines! I have no time for this!
- Jumao: Keep searching, captain... we'll find him!
Sailing to the second spot, Alonzo saw only two Spanish Navy ships.
- Alonzo: I don't see his ship...
- Jumao: But I see merchants. We might as well fill up on supplies, captain!
At the third spot, he saw a lighthouse.
- Alonzo: This is just an abandoned lighthouse...
Finally, Alonzo reached the last spot, where he saw Le Postillon's wrecked hull.
- Aaminah: Alonzo... this is La Buse's ship, Le Postillon...
- Alonzo: When I find the cursed coward who did this... I'll drown him in his own blood!
- Jumao: The wreck still burns, captain!... The enemy ship isn't far!... Use your spyglass!
Alonzo spotted a frigate in the distance.
- Alonzo: Here you are, you bilge rat!
He sped after the vessel, dodging naval mines to reach it.
- Jumao: I know this ship! It's the pirate with the black beard... the man who helped us fight the man o'war!
- Alonzo: He must know what has happened to La Buse!
Alonzo sidled his ship alongside the Queen Anne's Revenge and Edward Thatch called out from the helm.
- Thatch: Ahoy, wretched soul!... What are you doing so close to the devil mountain?
- Alonzo: Looking for the man who killed my friend... and stole my treasure!
- Thatch: A pirate killer? Blast!... First Bellamy, and then La Buse!
- Alonzo: Bellamy's dead?
- Thatch: Feeding the fish near Cape Cod... Sunk, ship and crew, in a terrible storm!
- Alonzo: He was on a mission to buy us time! Someone must have killed him!
- Thatch: Sam was my friend, boy... If someone murdered him, I'll crack his skull and piss in it!
- Alonzo: We should investigate La Buse's wreck for clues! I'm sure their deaths are connected!
They sailed back to Le Postillon's wreck to investigate and found a set of lost files.
- Alonzo: La Buse was attacked by the Templars!
- Thatch: Templars? Who the hell are they? Knights? Here, in the Caribbean?
- Alonzo: Yes! They plan to kill all pirates and take control of these seas!
- Thatch: They won't have Nassau!... I won't let them take down our republic! Not while I draw breath!
- Alonzo: You give them hell while I find the man who murdered my friend!
- Thatch: You should search the slaver fort on the other side of the mountain! People say it's this place that gave the island its name!... Not the god damned mountain!
While Thatch left for Nassau, Alonzo headed for the fort.
- Aaminah: The fort is heavily defended! The cannons will never let us get close!
- Alonzo: I'll destroy everything that stands in my way! The whole mountain if it comes to that!
Alonzo shot the fort's fourteen mortars with his swivel gun, taking incoming fire as he did so. Jumao saw a Royal Navy gunboat flee the scene.
- Jumao: Captain! A ship is trying to escape!
- Alonzo: The Templars are trying to flee with the Fragment! All hands on deck! Full sail!
Alonzo chased the boat, weaving around the naval mines it dropped, before gaining on it and finding its captain was the merchant John Barnes, who had imprisoned him long ago.
- Barnes: You'll pay for this, scum!... Do you have any idea who you're stealing from?!
- Alonzo: Yes, I do. And yet... I steal!
- Barnes: You!... You're supposed to be dead!
- Alonzo: And you will be soon.
- Barnes: Please... please don't kill me! I am only a messenger... I... I don't know of any...
- Alonzo: Hand me the relic you stole after killing my friend!
- Barnes: No! Your friend's not dead... he escaped! He used it... he used the relic!
- Alonzo: Don't lie, coward! I saw the wreck!
- Barnes: I speak the truth!... He sailed away aboard one of our ships after killing our men! This is the only thing we took from him! You can have it... it's gibberish!
He handed over a book written in a pigpen cipher.
- Alonzo: Get out of here and never show your face again!... Our next meeting will be our last!
Aaminah and Alonzo examined the book.
- Aaminah: What is this book? A journal?
- Alonzo: Some sort of codex... a set of signs and alphabets.
- Aaminah: Maybe it will decipher La Buse's message?
- Alonzo: You're right!... I can decode his cryptogram!
- Aaminah: Can you recall of a time when I was wrong?
- Alonzo: He's saying he's on the run from the Templars...
- Aaminah: Where is he going?
- Alonzo: To an island, not far from here... Mayaguana! He plans to leave the Caribbean!
Outcome
Expecting to meet La Buse, Alonzo instead found Le Postillon's wreck. Believing a nearby ship was responsible, he saw it was Edward Thatch, who told him of Bellamy's demise. Suspecting the deaths were linked, they investigated Le Postillon and learned the Templars had also targeted Le Buse. In a rage, Alonzo incapacitated a slaver fort's guns before catching a fleeing boat helmed by his old enemy John Barnes, who revealed La Buse used the Fragment to escape and gave a coded journal that he recovered. Alonzo used it to crack the encoded map that brought him there and learned La Buse aimed to sail across the Atlantic Ocean.
