The Braddock Expedition (memory)

The Braddock Expedition' was a virtual representation of one of Haytham Kenway's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description
Haytham Kenway worked with Kaniehtí:io to ambush Edward Braddock's patrol. Braddock tried to flee, but Haytham gave chase.

Dialogue
Haytham, Thomas Hickey, John Pitcairn, William Johnson and Benjamin Church were drinking in the Wright Tavern. Haytham and his allies rode for the meeting point. Haytham and his allies met with Kaniehtí:io and the Mohawk men. Haytham went to take down several soldiers without alarming them. Haytham and the Mohawk warriors killed the remaining soldiers. Haytham then dressed himself as a Redcoat and rode towards Braddock's patrol. A Redcoat was shot from his horse. As the Mohawk started their ambush, Haytham rode off to follow Edward. Due to a falling tree, Edward fell of his horse. Haytham's horse was shot by a Redcoat. Kaniehtí:io took down the Redcoat with the musket. Edward ran off. Haytham followed Edward through the woods. Haytham stabbed Edward. Haytham then stabbed Edward Braddock again, killing him. After that, he took his ring. Haytham and Kaniehtí:io met again after the ambush had ended. The two made their way to a strange wall, filled with markings. Haytham attempted to open it with the amulet. Haytham and Kaniehtí:io then kissed. Not long after that, Haytham returned to the Green Dragon Tavern. Haytham gave Charles the ring he took from Braddock.
 * Thomas: On the cold, cold ground.
 * John: Hear, hear!
 * Kaniehtí:io: Hard at work, I see.
 * Haytham: How did you...
 * Kaniehtí:io: It is time. We've set up camp to the north. Meet me there.
 * Haytham: Gentlemen! Let us away.
 * William: First it was too cold. Now it's too god-damned hot!
 * Benjamin: And humid too! It's a right swamp, I tell you.
 * John: To say nothing of the mosquitoes.
 * Haytham: Warm weather and bugs are soon to be the least of our worries.
 * Thomas: Wot? Ya mean the Bulldog? Please. We'll be in that one's beef soon enough and onto the next.
 * William: Where's your boy Lee gone off to?
 * Haytham: Returned to finish out his service under Braddock.
 * John: I imagine the Bulldog's none too pleased after the stunt we pulled.
 * Haytham: Lee's to spin a tale of my incompetence and beg for forgiveness. He's a way with words - especially when it comes to flattery. I expect he'll be welcomed back with open arms.
 * William: Which would give us a man inside.
 * Haytham: Precisely.
 * Benjamin: Unless you've understimated our enemy.
 * Haytham: If I have, Charles will sense it first and make his escape. He's more clever than you think.
 * Haytham: I see you've been busy.
 * Kaniehtí:io: All the men are from many different tribes - united in their desire to see Braddock sent away. The Abenaki, the Lenape, the Shawnee.
 * Haytham: And you? Who do you stand for?
 * Kaniehtí:io: Myself.
 * Haytham: What would you have me do?
 * Kaniehtí:io: We will help the others to prepare. Follow.
 * Redcoat 1: The wood's too thick. At this rate it'll be days before we reach Duquesne. We should follow the river instead.
 * Redcoat 2: The troop would be exposed there. We must maintain the element of surprise.
 * Redcoat 1: We're near 2000 men. One scout is all they need to know of us... And then whay? Swiftness would serve us better.
 * Redcoat 2: Ambush!
 * Redcoat: How could anyone call this forest home? It's all mud and bugs and monstrous things...
 * Redcoat: I'm telling you, we've packed the cart too high! The ground is uneven - its dangers hidden. One false move and the whole-
 * Redcoat: With the French pushed back there'll be a lot of opportunities for us up north.
 * Edward: Have served, you mean.
 * Redcoat: Sir?
 * Edward: You are grateful to HAVE served.
 * Redcoat: General!
 * Edward: I'll not tolerate doubt amongst those I command. Nor sympathy for the enemy. I've no time for insubordination. He paid for his treachery as all traitors must. If we are to win this war against the French... Nay, When we win this war... It will be because men like you obeyed men like me - and did so without hesitation. We must have order amongst our ranks, and a clear chain of command. Leaders and followers. Without such structure, there can be no victory. Am I understood?
 * Haytham: Edward. Not so fun on the other end of the barrel, is it?
 * Redcoat: LOOK OUT!
 * Charles: Sir.
 * Haytham: Where are you off to, Edward...?
 * Haytham: I never took you for a coward, Edward.
 * Edward: Come on then.
 * Edward: Such arrogance. I always knew it would be the end of you. IS the end of you.
 * Kaniehtí:io: Don't.
 * Kaniehtí:io: Hurry! Before he gets away! I SAID GO!
 * Edward: I don't deserve this! You're a hypocrite, Haytham!
 * Haytham: I'm sorry Edward, but you've forced my hand.
 * Edward: Dammit!
 * Edward: Why, Haytham?
 * Haytham: Your death opens a door. It's nothing personal. Well, maybe it is a LITTLE personal. You've been a pain in my arse, after all.
 * Edward: But we are brothers in arms.
 * Haytham: Once, perhaps. No longer. Do you think I've forgotten what you did? All those innocents slaughtered. And for what? It does engender peace to cut your way to resolution.
 * Edward: Wrong! Were that we applied the sword more liberally and more often, the world would be a better place than it is today.
 * Haytham: In this instance, I concur.
 * Haytham: It's done. Now I've upheld my part of the bargain. I expect that you will honor yours?
 * Kaniehtí:io: Follow me.
 * Haytham: No... No!
 * Kaniehtí:io: You seem disappointed.
 * Haytham: I thought that I held a key that would open something here...
 * Kaniehtí:io: This room is all there is.
 * Haytham: I expected... more. What do they mean?
 * Kaniehtí:io: It tells the story of Iottsitíson, who came into their world and shaped it for what life might come. She had a hard journey, fraught with great loss and peril. But she believed in her children and what they might achieve. And though she is long gone from the physical world - her eyes still watch over us. Her ears still hear our words. Her hands still guide us. And her love still gives us strength.
 * Haytham: You have shown me great kindness, Ziio. Thank you. I... I should go.
 * Charles: Master Kenway. Did you find it, then?
 * Haytham: It was not the right place.
 * Charles: The others are waiting for you.
 * Haytham: Gentlemen. Please, sit. I fear our "temple" was no more than a painted cave. Although it did contain precursor images and script, which means we are close.
 * Thomas: Not close 'nuff it seems.
 * Haytham: We need to redouble our efforts and expand our order, and establish a permanent base here. Although the site eludes us, I am confident we will find it.
 * Benjamin: Truth!
 * John: Hear, hear.
 * Haytham: Furthermore, I believe it is time we welcomed Charles into our fold. He has proven himself a loyal disciple - and served unerringly since the day he came to us. He should be able to share in our knowledge and reap all the benefits such a gift implies. Are any opposed? Very well. Charles, come, stand. Do you swear to uphold the principles of our order and all that for which we stand?
 * Charles: I do.
 * Haytham: And never to share our secrets nor divulge the true nature of our work?
 * Charles: I do.
 * Haytham: And to do so from now until death - whatever the cost?
 * Charles: I do.
 * Haytham: Then we welcome you into our fold, brother. Together we will usher in the dawn of a New World. One defined by purpose and order. Give me your hand.
 * Haytham: You are a Templar. May the Father of Understanding guide us.
 * All: May the Father of Understanding guide us.

Outcome
Haytham killed Edward Braddock, ending the conquering of Mohawk land. He also found the precursor site he had been looking for, though he was not able to open the door he found there. Furthermore, Charles Lee was inducted into the Templar Order.
