Currently residing in the manor on the Davenport Homestead, Shay was playing with his 3 year old daughter before he had to leave for a mission in Lisbon. His poor girl was very sick with many, even some doctors, not believing she could survive, so Shay was spending as much time as he could with her, just in case. Her mom passed during childbirth, so Shay was left to raise her all alone, of course with the help of the other assassins though.

As a result of her ailment, she was sitting on her bed, her back against the headboard while her father was sitting right beside her. They were playing with her handmade dolls that Kesegowaase so graciously gifted her.

"Oh but Miss (Y/n), doesn't your hair just look so lovely!" The Irish man spoke, forcing his voice to be a couple octaves higher as he brought one of the dolls up to brush the little girl's hair with it's fabric hand. The little girl, who looked just like her late mom with her (h/t) (h/c) hair and bright (e/c) eyes, let out a giggle before coughing. Shay's eyes that had been filled with amusement immediately shifted to concern as he gently patted the lass' small back.

Once she stopped coughing, she acted as though nothing had happened and looked at the doll her father held. "Why thank you (doll name)!!! I love your hair too!"

"Oh thank you, thank you!" Shay made the little doll bow a few times as he continued the voice he used before

A loud knock on the wooden door resonated throughout the room, gathering both of the inhabitants attention. After a few seconds of no opposition, the door creaked open revealing Achilles. The older man gave a little smile seeing the small family but it left once he remembered why he was here.

"Shay, the ship and crew are ready for your departure to Lisbon" Achilles informed causing Shay to let out a sigh. The younger assassin turned towards his daughter and kissed her lightly on her burning forehead. He then stood up, still facing his daughter, he leaned down and whispered words into her soft hair

"Be good for them my clover, I'll be back before you know it"

"When you come back, can we finish playing dolls?" (Y/n) asked innocently, and Shay gave a small nod and ruffled her hair slightly

"I love you lass, and I'll miss you" He said before he walked out and turned to Achilles "Take good care of her, will you?"

"Of course"

"Okay, I'm trusting you"

Of course, that trust broke as soon as the earthquake destroyed Lisbon.

After Shay betrayed the brotherhood, the assassin's told (Y/n) that he had passed, which at the time they believed to be true. After finding out this information was false, they didn't let the little girl know that, at least not until she was older. This news only worsened her already bad condition as now she felt broken. However, she was able to hang on and was finally starting to show signs of improvement.
