Database: Unexpected Reunion

CHICHEN ITZA//YUCANTÁN//1769-08-27

Under the threat of death, Jeanne abandoned her family and began a new life at a freed slave camp in Chichen Itza, far away from her daughter, Aveline de Grandpré, in New Orleans.

After nearly a decade of separation, Jeanne came face-to-face with Aveline when the latter journeyed to the Mayan site during an investigation into the disappearances of slaves from Louisiana. To Aveline’s dismay, Jeanne fled upon learning of her daughter’s ties to the Assassin Brotherhood and her mentor, Agaté.

Years later, she explained her reasons for leaving, before refusing her daughter’s offer to return to New Orleans.
