A Tactical Retreat

The Second Day of December, 1886

Galahad begins his road to reclamation with a “tactical retreat” to Whitechapel via the Thames underground embankment. Armed at first with just his Duelist revolver, he must fight through dark passages patrolled by United India Company mercenaries.

Escape to Whitechapel

As the short journey begins (1), Lakshmi reveals her Blackwater source: Sir Bors de Ganis, a Knight whose origins trace back to the search for the Holy Grail. (According to Arthurian legend, Sir Bors sought the Holy Grail with Galahad and Perceval.) Proceed down the first dark, narrow stretch until the passage opens up to a second track (2) and you hear voices up ahead. Three Company guards open fire. Target the explosive barrel (B) up the righthand tunnel (just left of the track) to inflict some damage. Then take out the other guards.

After you eliminate the first crew, swap to the Dragoon revolver (3) sitting on a side room table then grab the ammo crate (4). You hear another Company squad advancing up the left tunnel. Look for their approaching lantern lights as they slide around the rail cart (5).

Continue past the cart up the left tunnel. You can find another ammo crate (6) where the tunnel opens up to two tracks wide again. Slide sideways to the righthand track and prepare for one more wave of five Company guards. Target another explosive barrel just up the tracks, and look for one more ammo crate (7) if you need it.

After you clear the tunnel, proceed until the final cutscenes trigger. First, Lakshmi leads Galahad toward Whitechapel. Then watch as Lady Igraine bursts into the safehouse with an escort of royal soldiers. Her anguish at the clear signs of Galahad’s suffering is counterbalanced by the fury of her hatred for the Rebellion.
