Passing the Torch

Passing the Torch is a memory in Assassin's Creed: Revelations.

Description
Altaïr, now 92, says his goodbyes to Niccolò Polo and hands him both the Codex and the Masyaf Keys. As he escorts them to the gates of the village, he uses his Apple of Eden to subdue the soldiers that are attacking the Assassin stronghold.

Dialogue
Altaïr and the Polos make their way to village gates.
 * Altaïr: Niccolò Polo... Our time together was brief, I know. But I have faith this Codex will answer the many questions you have yet to ask.
 * Niccolò: Altaïr, this gift is... invaluable. Grazie. (Thank you.)
 * Altaïr: So, where will you go next?
 * Niccolò: Back to Costantinopoli for a time. We will establish a guild there before returning to Venezia.
 * Altaïr: Your son Marco will be eager to hear his father's wild stories.
 * Niccolò: He is a little young for such tales. But one day soon, si (yes).
 * Darim: Father! A vanguard of Mongols has broken through. The vilage is overrun!
 * Altaïr: Niccolò, your cargo and provisions are waiting for you by the village gates. We will escort you there.
 * Niccolò: Thank you, Mentor.
 * Altaïr: (To Assassins): Ready the catapults, and watch for my signal. (To Niccolò) Stay close.
 * Darim: Father... are you hurt?
 * Altaïr: Give me a moment. Ah. The end of an era... When I was very young, I was foolish enough to believe that our Creed would bring an end to all these conflicts. If only I had possessed the humility to say to myself, I have seen enough for one life. I have done my part. Then again, there is no greater glory than fighting to find the truth.
 * Niccolò: We are ready.
 * Altaïr: A last favor, Niccolò. Take these with you and guard them well. Hide them if you must.
 * Niccolò: Artifacts?
 * Altaïr: Of a kind. They are keys, each one imbued with a message.
 * Niccolò: A message for whom?
 * Altaïr: I wish I knew.

Outcome
Niccolò Polo leaves Masyaf with the Masyaf Keys and the Codex. The Mongol attack is succesfully fended of.
