Two weeks later, Percy had news for David. "David, the Mentor Ah Tabai has requested for your assistance in the Caribbean. If you would, you are required to head to the Great Inagua, one of the Assassin hideouts in the Caribbean. That is where Ah Tabai will be waiting."
Two months later, David arrived at the Great Inagua. Ah Tabai welcomed David to the island. "It is good to see you again, David, although it has only been a few months since I last saw you. Let us take a seat, and I will tell you of the recent events."
Ah Tabai and David walked to the manor on the island and sat together inside. "What is the month now, David?" David replied, "It was late November when I left New York, so now must be early February."
Nodding, Ah Tabai continued, "I bring sad news. In December last year, the Assassin Edward Kenway was murdered in his home in London." They were silent for a while. David had not met Edward personally but he knew of all his contributions to the Brotherhood. David did the math and found out that Edward was only forty-two when he died.
"Mentor, I hear that Edward Kenway has a son called Haytham. What will happen to the son?" Ah Tabai sighed. "I do not know, but I fear for the boy. Edward has a Templar close to him. He is a family friend of the Kenways, a man called Reginald Birch. I suspect that this person was the mastermind behind Edward's death. But that is not for me to investigate. I am old, and things like these should be left to the younger men."
David asked, "Mentor, when do I start completing assignments? I thought that was the reason for you requesting for me to come here." Ah Tabai replied, "You have just been aboard a ship for about two months. Rest is what you need now, David."
Five days later, Ah Tabai approached David. "There is an old settlement in Cuba called Baracoa. A popular place for illegal trading due to it's isolated location. There is a Templar in Baracoa, a doctor named Joseph who sells medicine to the locals at an extremely high price. Some of the medicine he sells is actually not even useful. Kill him and give out the medicine to the locals freely."
An Assassin ally known as Miguel de Nueva Espana offered to ferry David to Baracoa and back. Miguel was a ship Captain who would bring supplies to Inagua and sell them to the Assassins for a low price, in exchange for the Assassins' protection.
The voyage to Baracoa only took three days. Upon reaching Baracoa, Miguel told David, "I can only stay in Baracoa for a maximum of two days, as I have to bring more supplies to Inagua. So if you would want me to bring you back, you should hurry."
David bowed. "Gracias, Miguel. I shall be back before the day is over. We can leave before two days even end." David walked around the settlement, looking and asking around for Joseph. Apparently, Joseph was one of the richest men in Baracoa, and owned a plain-looking store called Joseph's Medicines.
Entering the store, David pretended to look around for medicine. Joseph came in from the back and upon seeing David, turned around and ran. Joseph ran out through the back door, slamming it shut as he fled. David pushed open the door easily and continued after Joseph.
Joseph ran on the streets while David followed from the rooftops. Joseph knew David was nearby but did not waste time looking back. "Help me! Someone wants to kill me! Please, aid me!" Joseph shouted as he ran, but no one stopped to help. David deduced that Joseph was probably a hated man in Baracoa.
Soon, David gained enough ground and was running just above Joseph. Snick. David's Hidden Blade ejected as David leaped off the building. He landed on Joseph, and his Hidden Blade made a squelch as it ripped through Joseph's flesh and muscles. David got up and kept his Hidden Blade. He returned to Joseph's Medicines and tore down the sign on the shop.
"Free medicines! Free medicines for you all! Tell everyone! Free for all!" David announced to the passing crowd. The people then went around, informing everyone that there was free medicine. People thanked David as they entered the store, taking the medicine. David walked away, contented.
David returned to Inagua in three days. He thanked Miguel and went to notify Ah Tabai. "It is done, Mentor. Joseph is dead. I have given out his medicine to the people of Baracoa."
Ah Tabai said, "Good. I am glad you did it fast. Templars, especially people like Joseph, are a bane in the quest of our Brotherhood. But do not mistake my words, as there are some good Templars, such as the wife of Altair Ibn-La'Ahad, Maria Thorpe."
