Interactive conversations

Over the course of their lives, Haytham Kenway and Ratonhnhaké:ton had various conversations with different people.

The Providence
On the second day of the voyage, Haytham entered one of the cabins and spoke to its inhabitant, Rupert Martin.
 * Haytham: Have a moment to talk?
 * Rupert: Ah, a fellow Londoner! Good to see I'm not the only man of means aboard. Rupert Martin, pleased to meet you.
 * Haytham: Haytham Kenway. Pleasure.
 * Rupert: Seems we picked an excellent time to leave the city.
 * Haytham: Oh?
 * Rupert: You didn't hear about the murder at the opera house?
 * Haytham: No. What happened?
 * Rupert: They're still trying to sort it out. And I suspect they'll be at it for a good while.
 * Haytham: Any word on the motive?
 * Rupert: They've ruled out robbery. So perhaps it was a business arrangement gone sour. Or something more personal... more lurid. Who knows. But I am glad to be away from it. The city grows more dangerous by the day.

Haytham entered the infirmary, and spoke to the doctor, who was tending to a sailor.
 * Haytham: Good morning, Doctor.
 * Doctor: To you as well.
 * Haytham: A question, if I may. Do you serve aboard the ship? Or are you simply taking passage?
 * Doctor: A bit of both, actually. I've been commissioned by the royal navy to study maritime illness. I'll be observing the crew during the journey. We have found that sailors fare far better on the open seas than the rest of us. I hope to discover why that is.
 * Haytham: Well, I hope you are successful in your endeavors.
 * Doctor: As do I. Thank you for the kind words.

Haytham then made his way to the upper deck, where he met the ship's captain, Samuel Smythe.
 * Haytham: Captain.
 * Samuel: Mister Kenway.
 * Haytham: I just wanted to thank you again for taking me aboard, and apologize for any inconvenience it may have caused.
 * Samuel: Inconvenience would be an understatement.
 * Haytham: I'm sorry, I don't follow.
 * Samuel: My ship was held in port for two days that we might accommodate you. I lost several contracts as a result.
 * Haytham: I had no idea...
 * Samuel: Of course not. You nobles are all the same...

Following the encounter with the sailors, Haytham spoke to the man at the helm.
 * Haytham: Do you expect we'll have a pleasant crossing?
 * Helmsman It is a quiet time of year - though rogue storms and troubled waters are not unheard of. But no need to fret. At worst they'll prove an inconvenience. I'm more concerned about pirates and rogue privateers.
 * Haytham: Have you encountered them before?
 * Helmsman: Aye. But the Providence is a strong ship - and her crew well trained. They will surely keep us safe.

Several days later, Haytham encountered Hector Graves while inspecting the lower deck for signs of mutiny.
 * Graves: You lookin' for another fight, that it? Go away.

Haytham approached Quill.
 * Quill I ain't got nothing to say to you.

Haytham continued his search.
 * Mills: Quite the basting you gave Graves and Quill.
 * Haytham: Wasn't by choice.
 * Mills: Aye. Blockheads, the both of them. Where are my manners. Louis Mills. Pleased to meet you.
 * Haytham: Haytham Kenway. So should I be watching my back?
 * Mills: I think the boys learned their lesson. they're normally not so nasty. Honest. It's just the past few crossings have been a bit... rough.
 * Haytham: Oh?
 * Mills: Captain's trying to cut costs. Reduced rations, lower wages, more dangerous cargo... It's put the crew on edge.
 * Haytham: Is there cause for concern, then?
 * Mills: Not if I can help it. But the Captain needs to think about the way he treats his men...

Upon speaking to James, Haytham returned to Smythe.
 * Samuel: You must expose whatever they're plotting.
 * Haytham: Your crew is a tight-lipped bunch, but I'll see what I can do...
 * Samuel: Well, hurry up!
