In the beginning of this chapter, we find that Present Day Templars in Abstergo are searching for the Observatory, a First Civilization artifact that can be used to spy on anyone in the world. An unknown individual is hired to use samples from Desmond’s body to search the memories of Edward Kenway, father to Haytham Kenway.

Edward is an 18th century pirate who gets caught up in a Templar conspiracy to find Bartholomew Roberts, the “Sage,” who is the sole person that can lead them to the Observatory. Edward finds Roberts and, in turn, the Observatory and the device that powers it. However, Roberts betrays Edward, landing Edward in prison for piracy. After his escape, Edward trains to become an Assassin and joins the Order. He defeats Roberts and the Templars, and he restores the device to the Observatory.

In Present Day, the unknown player is approached by an Abstergo employee; John Standish who unbeknownst to the player at the time, is a member of the Instruments of the First Will. In order to affect the First Will's plans, John operated as an Assassin-insider at Abstergo Entertainment. John persuades the player to hack Abstergo’s systems and deliver data to the Assassins. As the hacking is occurring, Juno appears and reveals that the world is not ready for her. John is revealed to be the reincarnated Sage and was actually trying to resurrect Juno.

The Sage has apparently no loyalty to either faction of Templars or Assassins. Abstergo security kills John and eventually the Assassins make contact with the player.
