...Everything Is Permitted
...Everything Is Permitted was a virtual representation of one of Edward Kenway's genetic memories, relived by a research analyst at Abstergo Entertainment through the Animus.
Description
Edward set out for Tulum to meet with the Assassins and make amends.
Dialogue
- Edward: Jaysus, Adé. What the hell happened here?
- Adéwalé: You happened here, Edward. The damage you caused six years ago has not been undone.
- Edward: I'm not an easy man to call a friend, am I? Is that why you're here?
- Adéwalé: To fight beside a man so driven by personal gain and flory is a hard thing, Edward. And I have come to feel the Assassins - and their creed - a more honourable course. Have I been unfair?
- Edward: No. For years I've been rushing around, taking whatever I fancied, not giving a tinker's curse for those I hurt. Yet here I am... with riches and reputation, feeling no wiser than when I left home. Yet when I turn around, and look at the course I've run... here's not a man or woman that I love left standing beside me.
- Ah Tabai: There is time to make amends, captain Kenway.
- Edward: Mary... before she died she asked me to do good by her. To sort out the mess I'd made. Can you help me?
- Ah Tabai: Mary was fond of you, Edward. She saw something in your bearing that gave her hope you might one day fight with us.
- Edward: Aye, she told me.
- Ah Tabai: And what do you think of our creed?
- Edward: It's hard to say. For if nothing is true, then why believe anything? And if everything is permitted... why not chase every desire?
- Ah Tabai: Why indeed?
- Edward: It might be that this idea is only the beginning of wisdom, and not its final form.
- Ah Tabai: That's quite a step up from the Edward I met here many years ago.
Ah Tabai handed Edward a set of rope darts.
- Ah Tabai: So what do you think?
- Edward: It'll take some getting used to.
An alarm was sound.
- Ah Tabai: The second attack this month. I should have moved this village long ago.
- Edward: I brought all this upon you years ago. But I will stand by you now.
- Ah Tabai: It will take more than a few favours to call yourself a true Assassin, Edward.
- Edward: One thing at a time, mate.
- Ah Tabai: Under attack once more. Come
- Assassin: To the beach!
- Ah Tabai: Stay close, Edward. Follow my lead.
Edward and the Assassins fought off the Spanish soldiers, after which Edward killed the Spanish captain.
- Ah Tabai: (You have strength and spirit.) And once more you have our thanks, Edward. You are welcome here.
- Edward: Thank you, sir. I'll rest here a time before setting out, if I may. How's her child?
- Ah Tabai: She's a strong woman. But not invincible.
Edward joined Anne.
- Anne: Edward...
- Edward: I'm sorry for your loss.
- Anne: If I'd stayed in prison, they'd have taken him from me. But he'd now be alive. Might be this is God's way of saying I'm not fit to be a mother yet. Carrying on like I do. Cursing, and drinking, and fighting.
- Edward: You are a fighter, aye. In prison, I hears tories of the infamous Anne Bonny and Mary Read, taking on the King's Navy together. Just the pair of you.
- Anne: It's all true. And e'd have won that day if Jack and his lads weren't passed out in the hold from drink. Edward... everyone's gone, aren't they? Mary. Rackham. Thatch. And all the rest. I miss them so, rough as they were. Do you feel that too? All empty inside, like.
- Edward: I do. Devil cuse me, I do.
Outcome
Edward helped the Assassins during the Spanish assault and made amends for his mistakes in the past.
