29. A Better Man

Chapter 28: A Better Man

Mentor Kenway,

I murdered his father, an Assassin. I also helped plot the death of his foster father. Despite this, the lad let me live. He is a better man than either of us.

Yours,

Shay Patrick Cormac

Grandmaster of the American Rite

Bill,

A lot to unload here.

Okay, so the son of an Assassin and foster son of a Templar? Cormac says he killed the first and helped plot the death of the second, which means I'm guessing this is Arno Dorian. I wonder why he let Cormac live? This is definitely in reply to one question or more, so I'm guessing there's an earlier letter in this sequence. Pity everything's such a mess. I just hope the letter's intact.

If I'm right about Dorian, then Shay was involved in the plot to kill de la Serre. Just how involved was Cormac with Germaine?
