Prudence
- "They killed our animals, salted our earth then dragged us out. You saw what followed."
- ―Prudence to Connor on the soldiers' advances on her farm.[src]
Prudence was the wife of Warren and mother of their child. Together, they lived on the Davenport Homestead. It was at her and her husband's behest that the Assassin Connor recruited Dr. Lyle White to assist with her pregnancy.
Biography
Early life
Prudence first came across Connor when he aided them in taking out some British troops, who had threatened her and her husband for not providing the British Crown with their produce. After this, Connor offered the couple a place at the Davenport Homestead, where they could grow their crops and raise their animals in peace, as their livestock had been slaughtered and their land salted.
Helping Norris
While on the Homestead, Norris grew attracted to Myriam, the Homestead's huntress. However, as he had a hard time thinking of a way to impress her, he sent Connor to inquire about things that women would appreciate, to which Connor visited Prudence. On her advice, Connor scaled a cliff on the Homestead to reach some colorful wildflowers, though on returning these to Norris, Connor later discovered that Myriam wasn't too fond on the prospect of them.
Pregnancy
Following this, due to fertility problems that her and Warren were experiencing, Prudence went out each night to look for evening primrose, as she had heard that it could advance conception. However, she had went missing for some time, which prompted Warren to call Connor over and request his assistance in searching for her. Through this, Connor used his tracking skills and arrived just in time to kill a wild bear that was aiming to attack Prudence.
With the crisis over, Prudence later found that she was expecting a child, much to her to and Warren's joy. Since this would require a doctor for the eventual delivery, the couple requested that Connor travel to Boston and search for Dr. Lyle White, who they previously visited for regular medical care. On assisting Lyle, Connor brought him back to the Homestead, where he amiably greeted the couple and learned of their predicament.
Hunter's birth
At one point, Prudence was discovered by Connor, panting in the Homestead's forest, and calling for assistance. She revealed that she had gone into labor, and Connor hurried to retrieve Dr. White, along with Warren on horseback, as she could not move and was in pain.
On gathering the two, they were both brought to Prudence's side, where the baby boy was delivered successfully. Lyle performed a diagnostic that revealed that the boy was healthy, and was in possession of a fine set of lungs. She and Warren were then awarded a son, and upon Dr. White's asking of the infant's name, her husband revealed it to be Hunter, in reference to Connor.
Life on the Homestead
Later, Prudence and Warren provided food for the wedding of Norris and Myriam, and celebrated at Oliver and Corrine's tavern for the reception. She also attended the funeral of Achilles Davenport, laying a rose on his coffin.
