In-Game Introduction Video
Preparing to synchronize. Note that we are experiencing a small system glitch that may cause a subtle ringing in your ears. It should pass as you enter the memory. The new world was plundered in the 15th Century. Explorers became conquerers. La Noche Triste or the Night of Sorrows was a bloody uprising between the Aztecs and the Spanish conquistadors. Hernan Cortes himself was driven from Tenochtitlan. Firsthand reports of the massacre present opposing perspectives. Find the truth.
Farsighted
My hunt continues. We must find these relics of a previous world. Study them. The Brotherhood has made connections, leveraged deals, and ensured my place aboard Hernán Cortés' ship, bound for the New World. To México.

The Spaniards know me as Botello, a soldier and a scholar. I have worked hard to perfect my accent and my garb. They remain convinced that I am one of them. I am to chronicle their adventures, though necessity demands I omit certain events.
- I study my maps and charts, sometimes comparing them to the stars. I am convinced we are following the correct course!
- I use tools the crew has never seen, lenses and measures suited to study subjects new to these men.
- Rumor around the ship brands me an astrologer. A magician. They believe I will bring them luck in their journey, so I do not correct them.
- With everything I know, what I have personally witnessed, I marvel at the endless sea beneath our ship. What secrets lie lost below? Relics? Cities? Answers?
- I keep a journal about our voyage, careful to note directions and obstacles. I write in doublespeak. Even a scholar would find my journal mundane and obsessed with details. A Brother, however, would find much more hidden in those sentences.
- We reach shore soon. How my heart races! I have studied these relics from our past, these Pieces of Eden, and I have even wielded them on rare occasion. I have spent my life theorizing and mapping, but never before have I had the opportunity to hunt one.
