Desmond is now reliving the memories of his ancestor, Haytham Kenway, in 18th century Colonial America amid the American Revolution.

Haytham is in possession of a stolen medallion, the Key to the Temple’s inner chamber which Desmond is trying to gain access to in Present Day.

Haytham has a son, Connor from a woman named Kaniehti:io of the Kanien'keha:ka tribe. She first appears as a prisoner captured by Silas Thatcher to be sold into slavery. After she is killed during what is thought to be a Templar attack on her village, Haytham is revealed to be a member of the Templar Order and not the Assassins.

Desmond is now able to access Connor’s memories and follows as Connor is trained by retired Assassin, Achilles. Connor attempts to work with his father toward peace between the Templar and the Assassins but to no avail. Haytham challenges his son and Connor prevails against him, killing his father and retrieving the Key. As instructed by Juno through a mystical sphere, Connor buries the key in the grave of Achilles’ son, Connor Davenport.

In Present Day, Desmond takes possession of the key and enters the Temple’s inner chambers. Juno and Minerva appear, and Desmond discovers that he has a choice. He can sacrifice his life by activating the pedestal and save the planet from the flare, but he will also unleash Juno on humanity, of which she is still determined to conquer.

He can also let the solar flare occur, which he will survive, and mentor the remaining survivors while keeping Juno locked away.

Desmond decides to sacrifice himself and hopes that humanity is able to fight against Juno.
