Description
"Mother. Father. I am sorry. I have failed you both. I made a promise to protect our people, Mother. I thought if I could stop the Templars, if I could keep the revolution free from their influence, then those I supported would do what was right. They did, I suppose, do what was right - what was right for them. As for you, Father, I thought I might unite us, that we may forget the past and forge a better future. In time, I believed you could be made to see the world as I do - to understand. But it was just a dream. This, too, I should have known. We're we not meant to live in peace, then? Is that it? Are we born to argue? To fight? So many voices - each demanding something else.It has been hard at times, but never harder than today. To see all I've worked for perverted, discarded, forgotten. You would say I have described the whole of history, Father. Are you smiling, then? Hoping I might speak the words you longed to hear? To validate you? To say that all along you were right? I will not. Even now, faced as I am with the truth of you cold words, I refuse. Because I believe things can still change.
I may never succeed. The Assassins may struggle another thousand years in vain. But we will not stop.
Compromise. That's what everyone has insisted on. And so I have learnt it. But differently than most, I think. I realize now that it will take time, that the road ahead is long and shrouded in darkness. It is a road that will not always that me to where I wish to go - and I doubt I will live to see it end. But I will travel down it nonetheless.
For at my side walks hope. In the face of all that insists I turn back, I carry on: this, this is my compromise."
The last scene and my absolute favorite from Assassin's Creed: Forsaken
