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
