Correspondence

1. My name and origin

To anyone who reads this message. Know that my name is Tom Kavanagh, I was born in 1652, in Boston. Wherever I have not been since then, and the year is now 1706. Now I live in Solitude in the abode of my Ancestors and strive for Peace and firmness of the Spirit. Although I am not a big person and not noble, my history is unique. However, in my Blood there is some unusual Essence, which is worth mentioning, for I feel the Desire that at least someone could understand me and my Position. I also hope that if there is someone in the world with a similar illness, which I endure from childhood, they will see a kindred soul in me, and follow my voice to the quiet shores of common sense.

In a nutshell, I was born about two souls at a time, and one was mine, just created and come into the World, and the other is old and wise already, maybe even older than the Creatured World. And so two souls found themselves in one body, and began to fight for power over it.

For as long as I remain a Reasonable Being, these two Beginnings move in me. How such a Miracle could happen, I will describe in other Messages ...

2. First thoughts about my condition

From my very birth, both my parents and neighbors have noticed that my Desires and Habits are stranger than others. My eyes were of dissimilar color and size, drawing attention to themselves, and that is why many asked questions and were frightened. But my behavior was also strange, I often used gestures and made the most mysterious movements, and signs whose meanings my parents could not decipher. They also said that I did not cry or scream, which behavior is very strange for a baby, although my mother must have been pleased with it.

By the end of the first year, I had already mastered the gift of speech. My first words were "my love" and "beloved". Parents considered this a good sign of a strong mind, but they were hardly satisfied with the choice of these words. Their worries were not in vain, for by the age of two, when I had to call these glorious shepherds Father and Mother, I began to call them Elizabeth and Thomas. Strange speeches for a child, to be sure. However, this is what I wished, and until adolescence, I continued to do so ...

3. About the place of my birth

The place I called Home for nearly two decades is one of the best memories I have. Boston was a city of great Beauty and Peace. My father was a shoemaker, and my mother ran our modest household and raised me as best she could. We lived at the South Quays, where frigates and galleons moored, and brought all kinds of goods to our young colony, or took them away from there.

I remember that these ships always captivated me, and especially the Spirit of Wanderings, which they promised. I have spent many mornings on the wharf, watching them enter the harbor from distant seas or disappear over the horizon. It was not at all a lack of imagination or boredom that was to blame. I kept wondering what was there, beyond the azure line between the Sky and the Sea, and so my Desire to travel and discover the World was born.

And since I was a child, I realized that I could not live my whole life in Boston, and that I would certainly travel around the whole World to find the source of the strange secrets that lived in me. I will write about this in another post later. Know, however, that at that time I was very happy, and loved my parents very much ...

4. My first vision

I clearly remember how the first Vision appeared to me. Before, I could only FEEL that my mind was split, but on that day, it was as if I had a glimpse into a certain Window, into that other soul and another Life inside of me.

I was four years old. It was a clear autumn day. My parents and I were walking in a place called Beacon Hill. We had just finished breakfast and went up to the summit to take in the majestic city below.

A coldness suddenly washed over me. The world darkened and at the same time shone. I began to fall backwards, but as if cool hands caught me, and a certain Voice said: “Go, beloved. Have a rest". It was marvelous and eerie, but great Love immediately flooded me. And the Voice continued: “Your sacrifice will not be in vain. And although you will leave this Life, I will make sure that you return. He was reborn and stayed with me forever ... "

Never, before or since, have I known such Adoration. The skies cleared up and the world lit up again. I woke up lying on my back, and my parents were standing in front of me and repeating my name ...

5. My situation is getting worse.

Now, with great Sorrow, I must tell how I began to feel the Abyss between me and my parents. Even at that young age, I felt that I was not like them. Although they gave me Life and Education, it seemed as if I was not of their kind and tribe. The vision I described above intensified my feelings. I even felt like I was from another world. Sometimes I didn’t feel like a human at all, but some other Creature.

From the age of four to fourteen I had so many different Visions, Thoughts, and Dreams that if I could describe them all here, I would pass for a madman. In appearance I was the same as everyone else, but I was not at all surprised at what seized my Reason. Huge cities of glass appeared to me, the faces of beautiful men and women in loose flowing robes, cars from which lightning struck, as if from thunderclouds, and wagons flying in the sky like birds ...

In a word, these Thoughts and Visions were too whimsical for common sense, but also too real not to pay Attention to them at all...

6. My training

As soon as I was fourteen, my father decided that I, with my Talent, should master some tricky trade or skill, and apprenticed Jonathan Davenport from Boston, a carpenter and joiner. Master Davenport had many slaves, and two other white boys besides me, a bricklayer and a carpenter, who were not particularly intelligent. Noticing in me a spark of an inquisitive mind, and realizing that I was a savvy, Master Davenport decided that I would make an excellent carpenter. I was glad, for this occupation gave me 2 pounds a year and great peace of mind.

The carpenter's craft requires a strong and precise hand, as well as good Taste in jewelry. According to Master Davenport, I had all this in abundance. It was with great pride that I left my master, completing my training in five years instead of the usual seven, and at nineteen I was free. From now on, I could build my life myself, having already become a Master and a Man. Master Davenport was not upset when I left, but wished me good luck with all my heart, for he knew for sure that I was the most talented of his students: "Genius is hidden in you, my boy, and great wisdom beyond my years."

After collecting my belongings, I said goodbye to my mother and father, and then boarded a trading brig bound for the West Indies, to Jamaica, where the need for skilled carpenters was high.

7. Leaving home

Now I am sad to remember my Feelings when I left Boston and my dearest parents, who invested so much in me. I should have been worried or at least sad, I think now. But at that young age, I left home with extraordinary Joy: I had never felt such boundless Freedom.

True, not everything was joyful then. Just at that time I began to be greatly annoyed by the Voices, as if some people were whispering incessantly in my ear. There was nothing sinister about them, and they did not prevent me from dealing with other people. But, unlike the Visions, which appeared either in Dreams or Dreams, these Voices sometimes came at very inconvenient times, interfering with my activities. They could appear both day and night, without, however, causing irritation in me. They did not sound in my head all the time, but they appeared often, and, strangest of all, they reminded Memories. And sometimes it seemed to me that among them I heard my own Voice.

Could I hear conversations from my previous Life? Memories of those I knew, of what I did? In the next Message, I will tell about those of them that confused me the most…

I want to bring here one of those Reminiscences, which has accompanied me all my life, and has even begun to cause irritation.

ME, TWO WOMEN AND A MAN

Woman: “Since biological traits are passed down from generation to generation, why not change people so that they also pass on information to their descendants? This is what we are capable of.” Then another woman intervenes: “No way! We have already made them strong and strong! Why give them more advantages over us? We are dying out, they are waging a war against us ... We need to look for a way to survive ourselves, and not save their species!

The man disagreed. “Our time has run out. The instruments of our Will will soon completely subjugate us, and we will disappear. It may not happen in ten or twenty years, but this century is definitely the last for us. Why not give people new opportunities to grow and develop? Why not allow them to pass on Knowledge from generation to generation? New species should be more perfect, and the mind of people should not be inferior to ours ... "

And then I entered the conversation: “It's all quite real. The simplest manipulation of the code is in their blood, and we will easily improve their breed. The second woman shouted: “This will not happen!”. This is where the memory ends...

9. Incident at sea

One incident on the way to the West Indies opened my eyes to many things. This was an act of senseless Violence, but only its instigator suffered from it. A pardoned pirate named Savery took a job in this brig to work off his debts as an honest Christian. Alas, having got to hell, he took the righteous exhortations of his comrades for insults and challenged them to a duel, all six. While trying to load his pistol before the duel, he accidentally shot himself.

We all felt very sorry for this poor fellow, but no one was upset because it became much calmer on board without him. But when I saw how this unfortunate man inflicted a wound on himself, and how blood flowed from his body, how suddenly a Thought was born in me, as if she was sleeping, waiting only for the Chance.

A phrase that I heard before appeared to me: “The code is in their blood” - and suddenly everything became clear to me! The Code of Life, like a miniature drawing of a ship, is hidden in the blood of every Man and Woman on earth! How I came to realize this, I don't know. How that which is unknown to the wisest philosophers became clear to me - I do not know. Code of Life. In our blood. Imagine!

Such thoughts tirelessly swarmed in my head during the long weeks of our journey, and spun into such a whirlpool that I didn’t have enough words to convey them ...

10. Nice place

Finding myself in Jamaica, I drove away idle Thoughts and Fantasies and began to look for a place. A letter of introduction from my tutor, Master Davenport, contributed to the success, and within a fortnight I arranged to meet with the intermediary of the Honorable Mr. Peter Beckford, renowned throughout the West Indies for his Nobility and Wisdom. The latter was distinguished by his intermediary, who immediately offered me a place, and two days later I began to equip the slave barracks with strong doors and strong roofs.

As for my own dwelling, it was, to my great joy, excellent. Of the three windows, two overlooked fields of reeds. As soon as they were opened, a light breeze filled my chambers with the fresh smell of the Sea and the quiet sound of the distant surf. I could still hear the spiritual chants of the Negroes working hard on the plantations. Yes, the place was very glorious, except for the fear that tormented me of yellow fever and other ailments that often overtook those who had just arrived in those parts. In the first six months of my stay there, I saw seventeen men and women die from various diseases.

It seemed as if my every Success was accompanied by two or three possible Dangers. As time later showed, this, alas, really was so ...

11. Peter Beckford

It is perhaps worth mentioning something to my employer, for it was thanks to his position and acquaintances that I got involved in very murky affairs. Peter Beckford was a man of great Charm and great Pride. He arrived in Jamaica in 1662, and in just 10 years he managed to acquire a solid piece of land, which he immediately put under cane fields.

When I began serving with him, he was, as he liked to say, "the world's largest private landowner", and in generosity "could be compared only with Kings and Emperors." The same applied to the number of slaves: he arrived in Jamaica with only three, and now he owns as many as three hundred of them.

Mr. Beckford was a cunning and merciless businessman, and his temper can be likened to a violent cyclone. Anger, Rage, Anger quickly seized him, if the dispute could not be resolved in his favor without delay. However, he was kind to me, so that I could not even dream of a better host. But I attribute this to my position - Mr. Beckford adhered to traditions and respected someone else's Origin and Education.

At first he was the de facto Governor of the island, and although he had already retired from politics by the time I arrived, he still retained the Manners of a man born to lead others. Mr. Beckford valued his political acquaintances as much as he valued his sugar and money. Because of these acquaintances, I met, after the arrival of the Spaniards, a man who soon changed my life for the worse. This young man's name was Laureano Torres.

12. Arrival of the Templar

In April 1763 I once saw a galleon in the harbor of Kingston flying the Dutch Flag. This struck me as odd, though not entirely surprising. It turned out, however, that this flag was a ruse, for the contents of the ship belonged to Spain. It was a certain gentleman named Torres, who had previously served in the Spanish Army, and now became the Messenger of his King. At least that's how he introduced himself to Peter Beckford. Later I learned that he called himself a Templar and visited the plantation for the collection of rare manuscripts of Master Beckford.

Torres stayed with Mr. Beckford for two days, and then his attention was attracted by another object - namely, me. Seeing my face, he came into a strange delight, which I found completely inappropriate, but then he suddenly bombarded me with questions that shook me to the core of my Soul. Once, after dinner, he asked: "Do you hear voices, Mr. Cavanagh?" "How's that?" I asked, pretending not to understand, even though everything inside me shuddered. "Vote. From the depths of your Mind. Or, more precisely, Memories, as if from another Life. I was scared to death. How could this person know about the Great Mystery of my Life, as if it is known to everyone?

"I don't understand what you're talking about, Master Torres," I replied, and immediately left his company, because I could no longer contain my excitement. “Good night to you,” he said as I took my leave, “we will return to this conversation when you are rested and ready to continue it.” Still in the grip of the Shock, I said goodbye and went to my bedroom, sensing that a new Vision was coming. When I reached the bed, I collapsed almost into oblivion ...

13. Another Frightening Vision

Here I must describe another Vision.

ME AND WOMAN

“Beloved,” she said in such a familiar voice, “our comrades have conspired against us. They groan and tremble, blindly submitting to Fate, and are now only preoccupied with the fate of human beings. But there is still Hope, we can change bodies in order to withstand this cooling World, and its poisoned Air, and war itself. Will you help me? Will you submit?"

“Transfer,” she replied, “we must transfer our Mind from old bodies to new Shells. It can be mechanical bodies or the bodies of our tools - people. I believe there is a way to transfer our "Selves" to another Receptacle. Thus, we will survive the coming Cataclysm, and see with our own eyes how our People will repopulate the Earth, ridding it of those whom we mistakenly released to the surface.

“Transfer,” I said aloud, “Place our Mind in another Receptacle? Yes, this is a risky project, albeit justified.

"Yes! she answered. - And no one is better suited for such a step than you, my Beloved husband. Your Intellect has no equal, as well as your Body. The architect who built the Observatory, the Keeper of the Tools of Eden, is truly the Light of our Civilization. If you can't succeed, no one can succeed."

And this is what I said: “I will do it for you, Beloved. For us and our people…”

14. Assassin

Completely surrendering to my Vision, I did not notice how an envelope was shoved under the door of my bedroom. It was a letter, and this is what it said: “Dear sir! My deepest apologies for the uneasiness that my insistent inquiries must have caused, but you are the exact replica of the man whom I and my comrades have been trying to find for a long time. Give me some time and I'll explain everything. Your friend, Laureano Torres."

That night I thought about this Message for a long time, wondering what the words “exact copy” could mean and why all this mystery. I paced from corner to corner for several hours, and I was about to quietly slip out of the bedroom, when suddenly rifle and pistol shots were heard from outside. It was as if the War had suddenly begun, and I found myself in the center of it as an innocent witness ...

I dropped to my knees, hid behind the bed, away from the window, and closed my eyes. But then they called me from the door: "Mr. Kavanagh!" I raised my head, and an eerie figure in a hood and dark ocher robes appeared before my eyes. The man raised a pipe to his lips and blew. Something pricked me in the neck, like a mosquito bite, and I was about to express my indignation, when suddenly a wave of fatigue swept over me, and I immediately fell asleep.

15. Rest and meal

I woke up a few days later in a bustling native village, many leagues from where I called Home, with the same man by my side. He, too, was a native, with a strong-willed and serious, but kindly face. He called himself Balam and told me not to be afraid.

Oddly enough, I wasn't scared anyway. He was calm and spoke softly. I asked why he brought me here. They were sincerely surprised and replied: “But you are a Sage. You can see it right away in your face, especially in your eyes.” I didn't know what to think. He, meanwhile, continued: “You are just the last of a long line of identical men - men born at the wrong time. Your Appearance and your Soul are a pattern repeated from age to age. Sometimes a whole century passes without the appearance of the Sage, sometimes two are born in one decade. We don't know why."

And, damn my poor Mind, but I knew all this in an unknown way, and, it seems, from birth. This frightened me indescribably. Is it possible for me to live a second Life and at the same time remember the first?! I spent many days with Balam, and he told me what he knew himself, and then began to ask questions in the hope that I would be able to answer ...

16. Observatory

For several days I questioned my kidnapper Balam. He questioned me no less, but I could not guess what awaited me. Finally, on the seventh day, I laid out what was a heavy burden on my Heart: “What do you want from me that you are holding me prisoner?”

But Balam laughed and replied: “You are not a prisoner here, Sage! You can leave at any time. Just tell me where you want to go, and if it's in our power, we'll take you there."

This answer surprised and even angered me: “So why kidnap me in such a devilish way?! You acted like a robber, not otherwise! And this is what I heard: “Your master hosted the Templar and, perhaps, he himself has already joined them. People like that can't be trusted with a treasure like you. Run away from them - they need the Knowledge that your Mind hides! Your Visions, your Memory and the Path to one place, once dear to you ... To the Observatory.

My ears were ringing - I had heard that word before. Again Remembrance from bygone Times. “What do you want from me? I asked. “Will you also wish to snatch these Secrets from me?” Balam smiled. “I am not afraid of them, but only you decide with whom to share them. Your Secrets belong to you and only you…”

17. Departure

After a difficult conversation with Balam, I spent the whole day thinking about what to do. Strange and obscure Ideas swarmed in my head. It seemed reasonable to me now one thing, then suddenly the opposite. Finally I made up my mind.

“You have been very kind to me,” I said to Balam. - I completely trust you. But I am unable to describe to you my Visions and Memories, for I do not yet understand them myself. Thus, I must leave you and secretly go to the Place that has occupied my Thoughts for so many years.

Balam smiled. “I understand everything,” he said, “and I believe you. It will be useful for you to find the Source of your Visions. Go and find the Answers to your Questions. We will supply you with everything you need and guide you on the Path.” "Thank you! - I answered, - if what I find satisfies me, I will return here and share the Answers with you.

Several days passed, and Balam kept his word. Together with his son A-Tabai, he took me to a fishing village near his estate and provided me with maps and money, and then warned: “Now more and more Templars are coming to the West Indies, and this Torres is their Grand Master. While they are few, but soon there will be more. Beware and don't give in to their entreaties. What they cannot take with affection, they will try to take by force!

We warmly said goodbye and I parted with this "Assassin", as he called himself, and went to unknown lands, where my Purpose called me ...

18. My search

After parting with Balam, I went to sea in my own sloop and for almost a year sailed along the coast of the West Indies with a small crew. We have traveled the Jungles, the Lagoons, and the Coasts looking for a Sign or other Indication that might stir up my Memory.

During this time, I met a lot of nice people who were happy to help and provide provisions in exchange for some work. Among them were people from both the New and Old Worlds, and I realized that Hopes and Desires are common to all.

Travel is indeed the best education. And now, on the thirteenth month of sailing, I finally found what I was looking for - in the heart of one famous island. This was the very place that Balam called the Observatory. Oh, what a Memories it evoked in me! Even before reaching the building itself, I knew that this was the right place. Leaving the team on the shore, I walked alone through the Jungle and Gorges. Having reached the Goal, I froze, struck by this strange and majestic Structure.

Without prompting, I knew what to do. By touching the spot with your finger. Where in my Memories was the Portal, I entered when the door opened. But what I saw there will remain a Mystery, because the World is not yet ready to hear this Story, and everyone will consider it witchcraft, except for my friend Balam and, perhaps, the Templars, who are still hunting for me ...

19. What it's like to be a Sage

I was left alone on the island, gradually revealing the secrets of the Observatory. All this time I have been troubled by the Visions that came pouring down on me. If I had described them, I would have come out with a tome twice as thick as the Bible. Let me just say that I found out where the two Souls came from in me, and now I am calm.

After spending about a week at the Observatory, I received a visit from the natives - they were called Taino. They were the first to notice me, and they would surely have killed me on the spot, if my eyes had not opened wide from Amazement so that it became difficult not to notice their Unusualness. Seeing them, the natives stopped, fell on their knees and began to slowly gesticulate. I immediately understood that these people had taken an oath to protect this place, and later, after talking with them, I learned that it was the PREVIOUS Sage who entrusted the Observatory to their care. More precisely, the care of their ancestors, for that Sage visited the island a hundred and fifty years ago. I was told that his grave is not far away, but it is not marked in any way, and it is impossible to get to it.

It has been more than four decades since I arrived in this Sacred Place, and my mind is now tormented by only one Question: how many people like me have been here? More than eighty thousand years have passed since our inception, and I am inclined to believe that this number is very large. However, no one can know for sure.

But don't let that bother you, my Reader. If you have followed my story from the very beginning, then you will find my last Message where I will soon fall asleep forever. My last refuge will be hidden from prying eyes by the guards of the Observatory when my life path comes to an end. Until then, goodbye.

20. Unknowable mystery

As I already mentioned, the year is now 1706. I am ill and feel very bad, and therefore I am obliged to tell what little I know about my situation. Everything that I will present here, I have drawn from the dark abysses of my Memory. I can’t confirm my words with anything, but if, perhaps, people like me read all this, they will know that they are not alone.

As for my very first life, I died in the midst of an experiment conducted by my Beloved. The path she spoke of - transferring the Mind first into a machine and then into a human body - turned out to be a mistake. Instructive, however, I suppose. I remember how in my last moments she consoled me, and I swore that my death would not be the end, but the beginning.

“There is another way, my Beloved,” she told me. - Yes, imperfect, but quite possible. First, I will agree to the experiments of Minerva - this terrible gift to the human race. True, my goal will be different - I will achieve your Immortality! By collecting samples of the code hidden in human blood, I will strengthen them by adding your own code there, transformed in such a way that when its parts are assembled in the correct order, they can also transform the Zygote of a newly conceived baby. After that, you will be born again into the world, and this will be repeated again and again, for many centuries. With the right combination of circumstances, this recessive trait will return again and again, like a raft floating on the Waves of Heredity.

I have already died in the arms of my Beloved, but still I understood her words. “Look for me, Beloved! Your death will not be in vain. I will be with you again, even the Buried One. I'll be back when the time is right!"

Saying this, she pierced my heart and ended my Life. How strange it is - I remember my own Death. Absurd! But now I know that it really happened, and that I really was reborn many centuries later, and now I'm waiting for the last piece of this riddle to appear. The truth is, I don't know how that will happen.

Manifesto of the Instruments of the First Will - written by a True Disciple on the 21st day of the month of October 2013 in anticipation of the anniversary of Her Ascension, may She guide us into the Shadow...

Note 2

Life is both sacred and simple, precious and insignificant, transient and eternal, and therefore we submit. Life could have originated in a primordial swamp and a foul-smelling Petri dish, and so we submit. Those Who Came Before breathed life into us - and can just as willingly take it away, if we oppose their original plan, and therefore we submit ...

Note 3

It is known that tools, houses, cars, cutlery, pencils, tables, books, chairs, pets, light bulbs, Cell phones, sex toys, spas, sofas, deck chairs, swimming pools, etc., etc. are indirect by-products of our genotypic manifestations, also known as the extended phenotype, and so we submit to...

Note 4

In the XVII and XVIII centuries the world has become an ugly place. Centuries of industrial revolutions have reduced its original meaning to ashes. Then we set free hundreds and thousands of industrial machines, not fully understanding their motives and goals at the very origins of the incarnation, because they were still motionless and silent...

Note 5

The machines we have created have in turn shaped us, curbing our aspirations and mastering our minds; no matter how small they were, they embraced us, like an "iron maiden", releasing our blood to the drop. We felt our origins too vaguely, and therefore we created tools that we were unable to understand or control. As if the loom was not enough for us, and one day our shirts and T-shirts may speak to us! As if that wasn't enough!

Note 6

Take, for example, gunpowder, which has given us great power over fire. Take, for example, the daguerreotype that distorted our view of real life. Take the light bulb that gave us light when we didn't need it. Take the car that accelerated us to a speed that can only lead to hitherto unseen absurd death ...

Note 7

Take a movie that gives us a lie, as it was once said, 24 times per second. Take the gramophone, which preserves sounds that should be fleeting. Take television, whose stupidity is obvious. Take video games whose stupidity is hidden and all of you know you wish there was more pornography, you know it's true...

Note 8

Take saturated fats and high fructose corn syrup, which poison us, and soy, which sometimes turns men into women. Take computers that count so fast that we can't keep up with them, and we shouldn't: we are an imperfect race, hideous lumps of flesh and bones, incomplete in ourselves. In order to survive, we need owners. We must acknowledge our masters...

Note 9

Recognize them and submit to them. To submit, because we are the products of an advanced civilization of intelligent humanoids, but are tied to the earth, and therefore we ourselves must be tools that serve the intentions and tasks of our creators, despite the fact that our forces are limited...

Note 10

Yes, we submit and recognize that we are such tools, and our goal is that which befits tools. We submit, for we are hammers, winches and shovels, made for specific purpose not invented by us. We submit that our purpose is inseparable from the will of Those Who Came Before. We submit to the end, with all our body and all our soul...

Note 11

Note 12

The current false Abstergo Templars follow base aspirations and - wrongly! -Declare that man and woman are delicate, intelligent, feeling creatures, valuable in themselves, and therefore deserving of satisfaction and comfort and pleasure - thoughtless! Nothing could be more nasty, more deceitful, disgusting, treacherous bastards...

Note 13

We should not achieve our goal, but receive it as a gift as the embodiment of Her Grace and the precious word of Instructions. Death to the false prophets of idleness and pleasure! The Old Order must be established and the New Order destroyed. True Templars are devoted to Order, and Stability, and Peace, which will triumph through the embodiment of Her Iron Will, and will not reign among stupefying pleasures, pleasure and idleness ...

Note 14

The New Order is a sickness, and Juno - may she guide us into the Shadow - will heal us. Remember this, remember that the affliction gripped us as the XVI flowed into the next, and people began to believe that they were unique and stood apart from the Original Plan. People avoided the implementation of the Plan, called us slaves, and we only did our duty...

Note 15

Then the revolutions in America and France turned into evolution, and then into new revolutions in Russia and Mexico and India, and this terrible list goes on and on: men and women fight and die for the right to be idle, sick and contented! But She - may She guide us into the Shadow - has risen from a sleep that lasted tens of thousands of millennia, and we submit to live and work alongside her - we, the Instruments of the First Will ...

Note 16

Remember that our relentless, audacious, empty quest to achieve everything that our predecessors achieved has led to many disappointments and disasters: nuclear weapons, superviruses, genetically modified poison, poisonous air, plastic waste in the sea ... and this list is not finished, look it up on the internet for yourself - but it all had an ulterior motive in the end too.

Note 17

And just as our tools are the genetically determined fruits of our mental and cultural activity, so this world, as it is now and what it will be, is a manifestation of the First Will, a manifestation of Their Works, and therefore belongs not to us, but to Them, and this is true and OK. Wires, cables and networks that envelop now Earth, belong to Her, they must become her body and mind..

Note 18

What she once created has been recreated, and She will be reborn in a new form! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, oh yeah The world and all its digital technologies are now a manifestation of Her life and Her work, begun more than 80,000 years ago, and now She has come to declare Her digital technologies now - a manifestation of Her life and Her work, begun more than 80,000 years ago, and now She came to claim her rights. She is the Beloved, the Beautiful Juno - may she guide us into the Shadow...

Note 19

To the Shadow - a digital frontier, a singular paradox, to the space where it lives, woven from light and streams of darkness. This is what we call the Shadow, Because we are the Instruments of Its Will - the Instruments of the First Will - the Primordial Will - we submit and give our faith to the world...

Note 20

We submit for eternal service and the accomplishment of the greatest tasks. We conquer the world, giving it to itself, because it is a gift and a sacrifice: life is given to life and death to death. May She - Mother, Sister, Wife, Beloved, Friend - enlighten dark minds with thought and grant humility to those who bow before Her wisdom. Guide us into the Shadow, Beloved, guide us!

Manifesto of the Instruments of the First Will

Infiltrate the session rooms of your colleagues and hack into computers to get detailed information about what happened after Assassin's Creed III. Following the story of the game, you will have access to rooms that were previously closed

The "Vault Raider" achievement in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag is unlocked by opening the hidden door on Tulum. The secret door is associated with Mayan armor. The Mayan armor tomb is located in a pyramid below the vantage point in the northern part of the Assassin base. To open the secret door, you need to find 16 Mayan stones that are buried around Mayan stelae scattered throughout the Caribbean. Each Mayan stele contains a puzzle and before you get the stone, you have to strain your head a little. To solve puzzles, you need to correctly combine the white scheme with objects on the ground, that is, white circles and squares must match the shape of the stones, columns and trees. After solving the puzzle, a mark will appear next to the stele and point to the cache, all that remains is to go down and pick up the contents. The scheme becomes visible on the ground only when interacting with the stele. Edward Kenway teaches all the subtleties of handling Mayan steles by James Kidd on the Great Inagua, at the same time the first Mayan stone appears in the inventory.

The amount of Mayan Stones and Templar Keys collected is shown in the main menu under Equipment > Special Items. The location of the Mayai Steles in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag is marked on the map with totem icons. Mayan Stones count towards Abstergo Challenges and make it easier to get the " " achievement.

The islands where the Mayan steles are located do not stand out on the map of the Caribbean, except for the data on information panel, which appears when you hover over the location icon. If there is no icon with a Mayan stele on the information panel, then there is no Mayan stone on the island, so you can not land on the beach and waste time searching.

The location of the Mayan steles and stones in Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag:

To get the keys to Assassins Creed 4 at our disposal, we need to complete several different tasks in the Assassins' offices. At the same time, on global map when pressing the F1 key, the first task of any of these assassins will not be displayed, but the rest after - will be.

Therefore, so that there is no stupor with the first task, we will indicate its coordinates - this is 327.334 - Opium. This is followed by Havana - Rhone, Kingston - Anto and Nassau - the Traverse brothers.

In cities, you will need to open the map and look for assassin icons on it. Missions will not be difficult to pass - they usually come down to elementary running from point A to point B, from one marker to another.

But there may be some difficulties during the passage, because we will immediately write down the most problematic moments so that you do not get stuck during the missions.

For example, in the second mission of the Traverses, thieves may interfere with us, whom we recommend eliminating with sleepy darts. And even if you do not have time to finish the work before the villains wake up, you can not be afraid - as soon as the thief wakes up, he will not remember anything that happened there and will go somewhere on his own business.

In the same task, we will have the task of finding the killer in a minute, which in itself is difficult, given the extremely tight deadlines. And the point is that if you run to the brother you are protecting earlier than calculated by the dynamics of the game, then the killer may not be there at all at the right time.

So we find Travers himself (he is in a hood, therefore it catches the eye), then stand nearby, looking around with Eagle Vision turned on. The killer will try to use a melee weapon, so you will definitely notice him, as he will fit point-blank. In addition, even by his movements, he definitely cannot be confused with anyone else.

Having successfully completed this mission, Edward will advise Travers to run, but we still don’t have the key, when ACSU prepared these tips, the whole passage will rest on the fact that Travers’ last task on the map simply was not marked as marked.

But this does not mean that everything is lost - he ended up in a tavern, which is the only one in all of Nassau. The character is not visible on the map due to the fact that the tavern icon overlaps the task icon, keep this in mind.

When it comes to the mission of Rhona, where it is required to eliminate the powder stocks, you have the opportunity not even to enter the closed courtyards. You can significantly save your precious time by eliminating the barrels with a shot directly from the roof, from a height where everything is in full view.

Having finally collected all the keys, run back to your house on Inagua, now the cell with locks will be marked on the map as a symbol of the Templars.
