Chapter 1: First Impressions
July 17, 1715, Nassau, Bahamas
Kenway—
I write this to you without quite knowing why, since I don’t plan on giving it to you. I guess it’s just because I feel like it since the others are too drunk and debauched to talk to at present. You know who I am—the bastard son of William Kidd, who hanged for his piracy not long ago. I made my way through the ranks to be where I am now. But you, Kenway, drop in from God-knows-where in a uniform that is obviously not yours. If you are serious in becoming one of us, then you will need to try much harder than stealing the clothes off a man’s back.
In the meantime, I overheard you asking Vane about the Observatory at the tavern. Aye, it is meant to exist, but as all legendary places, it is shrouded in mystery. El Dorado or the Fountain of Youth, as I told you. Yet all legends bear a hint of truth, do they not? And you have a sketch of what’s inside it, which I have never seen in another man’s hands before. Perhaps you will find this Observatory—if you prove yourself. As of right now, I have my doubts. But there is something about you…I have yet to find out what it is if I can look past all your talk of treasure.
—James Kidd
Hi, everyone, this is my very first fanfiction dedicated to Assassin's Creed and one of my favorite ships. I know this first "chapter" is quite short but they do get longer as the story goes on. I hope you'll enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. Thanks for taking a look, and if you have the time, reviews are most welcome. :) Thank you!
