Altaïr: The Templars have retaken their archive on Cyprus. Abbas sent no reinforcements. It was a massacre.
Maria: Oh my God…
Altaïr: Maria, when we left Masyaf ten years ago, this Order was strong. But all our progress has been undone.
Maria: Abbas must answer for this.
Altaïr: Answer to whom? The Assassins obey only his command now.
Maria: Resist your desire for revenge, Altaïr. Speak truth and they will see their error.
Altaïr: He executed our youngest son, Maria! He deserves to die!
Maria: Perhaps. But if you cannot win back the Order by honorable means, its foundation will crumble.
Altaïr: You are right. Thirty years ago I let passion overtake my reason. And it caused a rift that has never fully healed.
Maria: Speak reasonably, and reasonable men will listen.
Altaïr: Some will, but not Abbas. I should have expelled him thirty years ago when he tried to steal the Apple.
Maria: But you earned the respect of the other Assassins because you let him stay.
Altaïr: How do you know this? You were not there.
Maria: I married a masterful storyteller.
