Assassination (Garnier de Naplouse)

Assassination (Garnier de Naplouse) was a virtual representation of one of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description
Altaïr entered the Hospitalier Fortress, where he witnessed an escaped patient shouting about Garnier de Naplouse's cruel experiments to the gathered crowd. After the commotion was over, the Assassin entered Garnier's personal workspace within the fortress, and assassinated him.

Dialogue
Altaïr entered the Hospitalier fortress, when suddenly one of Garnier's patients came running through the halls, pursued by two guards. Eventually they subdued him near the main entrance, as Garnier came out to investigate the commotion. Garnier then slapped the patient to silence him. The patient was able to momentarily break free from one of the guards, and adressed the crowd around him. Another guard came up to the patient and forcefully stepped on his knees, breaking both of his legs. The patient was then dragged back into the fortress. As the crowd dispersed, Altaïr infiltrated Garnier's workspace and assassinated him once he had the chance. Altaïr escaped the fortress and returned to the Bureau afterwards. Altaïr then left the Bureau and returned to Masyaf's fortress, where he reported his progress to Al Mualim.
 * Patient: No, help! Help me! Help me! Please! You must help me!
 * Garnier: Enough, my child! I asked you to retrieve the patient, not to kill him! There, there. Everything will be alright.
 * Patient: No!
 * Garnier: Give me your hand.
 * Patient: No, don't touch me! Not again!
 * Garnier: Cast out this fear, else I cannot help you.
 * Patient: Help me, like you helped the others?! You took their souls! I saw! I saw! But not mine! No! You'll not have mine!
 * Garnier: Take hold of yourself! Do you think this gives me pleasure? Do you think I want to hurt you? But you leave me no choice.
 * Patient: Every kind word, matched by the back of his hand! All lies and deception! He won't be content until all bow before him!
 * Garnier: You should not have done that. Return him to his quarters! I'll be along once I've tended to the others.
 * Patient: You can't keep me here! I'll escape again!
 * Garnier: No. You won't. Break his legs, both of them.
 * Garnier: I am so sorry, my child. Have you people nothing better to do?
 * Altaïr: Let go your burden.
 * Garnier: Ah, I'll rest now, yes. The endless dream calls to me. But before I close my eyes, I must know - what will become of my children?
 * Altaïr: You mean the people made to suffer your cruel experiments!? They'll be free now to return to their homes!
 * Garnier: Homes!? What homes!? The sewers? The brothels? The prisons that we dragged them from?
 * Altaïr: You took these people against their will!
 * Garnier: Yes, what little will there was for them to have. Are you really so naive? Do you appease a crying child, simply because he wails? "But I want to play with fire, father." What would you say? "As you wish"? Ah, but then you'd answer for his burns.
 * Altaïr: These are not children, but men and women, full grown.
 * Garnier: In body, perhaps, but not in mind; which is the very damage I sought to repair. I admit, without the Piece of Eden, which you stole from us, my progress was slowed. But there are herbs, mixtures and extracts. My guards are proof of this. They were madmen before I found and freed them from the prisons of their own minds. Ahh, and with my death, madmen they will be again.
 * Altaïr: You truly believe you were helping them?
 * Garnier: It's not what I believe, it's what I know.
 * Jabal: What news, Altaïr?
 * Altaïr: Garnier is dead.
 * Jabal: Then you should return to Masyaf with news of your victory.
 * Altaïr: There is something else.
 * Jabal: Speak it then! Or would you have me read your mind?
 * Altaïr: What do you think he wanted from these people, that he would keep them and experiment on them as he did?
 * Jabal: Yours is not to ask, but act, Altaïr! It doesn't matter what he did or why. Only that he's dead.
 * Altaïr: But Garnier seemed to believe he was helping these people.
 * Jabal: Is that what you saw?
 * Altaïr: No. What I saw was not a place of healing, but of pain.
 * Jabal: Then why are we having this conversation?
 * Altaïr: I... I don't know. Forget I spoke of it.
 * Jabal: I already have.
 * Al Mualim: Have you news for me, Altaïr?
 * Altaïr: Garnier de Naplouse is dead.
 * Al Mualim: Excellent! We could not have hoped for a more agreeable outcome.
 * Altaïr: And yet...
 * Al Mualim: What is it?
 * Altaïr: The doctor insisted his work was noble. And looking back, those who were supposedly his captives seemed grateful to the man. Not all of them, but enough to make me wonder. How did he manage to turn enemy into friend?
 * Al Mualim: Leaders will always find ways to make others obey them. And that is what makes them leaders. When words fail they turn to coin. When that won't do, they resort to baser things - bribes, threats, and others types of trickery. There are plants, Altaïr, herbs from distant lands, that can cause a man to take leave of his senses. So great are the pleasures it brings, men may even become enslaved by it.
 * Altaïr: You think these men were drugged, then? Poisoned?
 * Al Mualim: Yes, if it truly was as you describe it.
 * Altaïr: Herbs... This seems a strange method of control.
 * Al Mualim: Our enemies have accused me of the same.
 * Altaïr: The promise of paradise...
 * Al Mualim: They think it is a garden, overflowing with women and pleasure. That I drug you as Garnier did his men and tempt you with its rewards.
 * Altaïr: They do not know the truth of it.
 * Al Mualim: Which is how it must be.
 * Altaïr: But if they knew the truth of it, that all we seek is peace...
 * Al Mualim: Then they would not fear us, and we would have no hold over them. Go, it is time you continued with your work. Another rank is restored to you, as is a piece of your equipment. We'll speak again when the next has fallen.

Outcome
Altaïr assassinated Garnier de Naplouse, and returned to Masyaf to report his progress to Al Mualim.
