Altaïr: Tell me, what’s your part in all of this? Do you intend to defend yourself as the others have and explain away your evil deeds?
Majd: The Brotherhood wanted the city. I wanted power. There was… an opportunity.
Altaïr: An opportunity to murder innocents.
Majd: Not so innocent. Dissident voices cut deep as steel. They disrupt order. In this, I do agree with the Brotherhood.
Altaïr: You’d kill people simply for believing differently than you!
Majd: Of course not! I killed them because I could, because it was fun! Do you know what it feels like, to determine another man’s fate? And did you see the way the people cheered? The way they feared me? I was like a God! You’d have done the same if you could. Such power!
Altaïr: Once perhaps. But then I learned what becomes of those who lift themselves above others.
“Sit a Moment and Rest” – Assassin’s Creed Revelations
Haytham: So, a question for you: why medicine?
Church: I’m supposed to tell you I care for my fellow man – right? That I chose this path because it allows me to accomplish a greater good.
Haytham: Are these things not true?
Church: Perhaps. But that’s not what guided me. No… for me it was a less abstract thing. I like money.
Haytham: There are other paths to fortune.
Church: Aye, but what better ware to peddle than LIFE? Nothing else is as precious – nor so desperately craved. And no price is too great for the man or woman who fears an abrupt and permanent end.
Haytham: Your words are cruel, Benjamin.
Church: But true as well.
Haytham: You took an oath to help people, did you not?
Church: I abide by the oath, which makes no mention of price. I merely require compensation – fair compensation – for my services.
Haytham: And if they lack the required fund?
Church: Then there are others who will serve them. Does a baker grant free bread to a beggar? Does the tailor offer a dress to the woman who cannot afford to pay? No. Why should I?
Haytham: You said it yourself, nothing is more precious than life.
Church: Indeed. All the more reason one should ensure one has the means to preserve it.
