nor destroyed them.

We merely abandoned them

to their own inexorable faith.

You're your mother's son.

-What does that mean?

Blood that flows through you

is not your own.

Belongs to the Creed.

Your mother knew that.

She died so the Creed may live.

Remind me how, exactly!

What you saw, I did.

You murdered her.

I took her life rather than

have it stolen by that machine.

Man grows with the greatness

of his task.

I ought to have killed you.

I couldn't.

Well, here.

Take it.

Do what you couldn't do 30 years ago.

It's in your hands now, Cal.

This is what they want.

Spill my blood.

But do not go back in the Animus.

Why?

The Apple contains the

genetic code for free will.

They will use it to destroy us.

I'm gonna find it.

And watch them destroy

you and your Creed.

You can not kill the Creed.

It's in your blood.

The Apple is everything.

Your mother died to protect it.

She had no choice.

I do.

You're gonna kill the Creed!

Take me to the Animus.

Put me in.

Prepare the Animus.

Voluntary regression.

Do you know how the

Assassins came to be named?

From an Arabic word "Hashashin".

They were society's outcasts.

Those who stole,

who murdered in cold blood.

People ridiculed them...

Rebels, fools, drug addicts.

But they were wise.

They used this reputation to hide

the dedication to principles

beyond those of even

their strongest enemies.

And for that I admire them.

But you're not one of those men.

Are you?

Let's find out.

Commencing regression.

This is my life's work.

It's my life.

For the Creed.

Our own lives...

What matters is what we leave behind.

Sultan...

Surrender the Apple.

Your Assassin protectors are gone.

The Creed is finished.

My son.

Here lies the seed

of man's first disobedience,

of free will itself.

Thanks to the Apple of Eden,

the known world

shall be ushered into a new age.

One of peace,

in which all the warring

populations of mankind

shall bow in perfect obedience

to our one templar rule.

The Apple.

Give it to him.

Now.

For the Creed.

Go!

Forgive me.

It's over!

Assassin!

A leap of faith.

Where are we?

It looks like a military port.

Kadiz, Palos de la Frontera.

The Assassins died for it.

Protect it with your life.

I am a friend of the Creed.

Take it to your grave.

I swear.

What is it?

Translation.

Following the light of the sun,

I shall leave this old world behind.

It's Christopher Columbus.

Where is he buried?

His remains were returned to Spain.

His tomb is in Seville Cathedral.

We found it.

Hey All Stars, come here.

Pick one.

Anyone.

Breach in common room.

-Seal the Animus.

Is it a memory?

No.

Come on!

Transport?

-Standing by.

Protect the Animus.

Purge the facility.

I need to get you out of here first.

No!

-We have to leave, Sophia.

No!

No!

Pick it up!

You are not alone, Cal.

You never were.

Open...

-Come on.

Where other men blindly

follow the truth,

remember...

-Nothing is true.

Where other men are

limited by morality or law,

remember...

-Everything is permitted.

We work in the darkness

to serve the light.

We are Assassins.

What now, pioneer?

We fight.

Your Excellency.

The glory will go to your father.

But we both know who found it.

Your time will come, my child.

GREAT TEMPLAR LODGE,

LONDON:

They'll give you a

Nobel peace prize for this.

You better start writing your speech.

I've read yours.

-And?

If we eradicate free will,

we eradicate the Assassins.

A cancer that has menaced

society for centuries.

It's not my best work,

but it gets the point across.

We've been looking for solutions.

You've eliminated the problem.

So my program...

Has brought order to

society for the first time.

I'm accountable for this.

You've already been accounted for.

Our work belongs to the Elders.

This is their finest hour.

You lied to me.

I've always known

that in your heart you're a

scientist first, templar second.

Your recent work has impressed as much

but it has confirmed our belief

that mankind

cannot be redeemed.

You've thought of everything.

Not quite. My speech. It could do

with one of your elegant openings.

Now I've become death,

the destroyer of worlds.

Not sure that I could make that work.

It is with great pleasure

tonight that I introduce

the architect of our

ancient order's future.

Please welcome the CEO

of Abstergo Foundation,

Dr. Alan Rikkin.

With the recovery of the Apple,

we are now in possession

of the complete genetic road map

to humanity's instincts.

Any impulse towards independence,

resistance or rebellion

will be crushed.

Any predisposition that might

oppose our march of progress

can now be eradicated.

All I have to do is shout.

I'm here to help you.

And you're here to help me.

I can't help you anymore.

What about all those great plans?

Cure violence, combat aggression.

That's not going to happen.

You've started this, Sophie.

You don't get to walk away.

We both know what happens next.

Not everything deserves to live.

I can't do this.

Yes, you can.

But it is not to ourselves,

but to the future,

that we must give glory.

A future purged of

the Assassin's Creed!

Ladies and gentlemen,

the Apple of Eden.

I did this.

I will retrieve the artifact for the Elders.

Lynch I want for me.

It is not to ourselves, but to the

future, that we must give glory.
