Uncharted 4 A Thief’s End™ 20250424044936 - Chapter 18 - New Devon

Nate and Elena arrive at New Devon's gate. After jumping across the gibbets and climbing atop the wall, Elena surveys the ruins with a pair of binoculars and notes that someone deliberately destroyed a dam to flood New Devon. They then deduce that the only intact house has to be Avery's. At Avery's front door, Sam is seen with both Rafe and Nadine, with Shoreline as backup. While traversing through the dilapidated neighborhood crawling with Shoreline, Nate and Elena find evidence that the founders turned on each other. Edward England, out of retaliation for his home being ransacked and burnt on Christopher Condent's orders, killed Condent's brother. Richard Want's wife or female relative was hanged by Adam Baldridge, after Want supposedly murdered one of Baldridge's own. In the wake of the civil war, a letter addressed to Baldridge from Condent calls for a truce, with thinly-veiled threats of what would happen following a refusal. In Thomas Tew's mansion, Nate and Elena stumble upon a tableau of human remains seated around a dining table. They realize the bodies are actually the pirate captains who founded Libertalia, dead from poison. Elena finds a letter penned by Tew, inviting all the captains to his mansion in order to settle their differences and "unite under the banner of god and liberty." Avery and Tew's bodies are missing. After sparking a revolt for stealing the treasure for themselves, the founders successfully repelled the colonists, but then had to deal with each other's greed. Avery and Tew, wanting the treasure for themselves, poisoned the other captains. Nate and Elena then head over to Avery's manor. In the foyer, Shoreline has barricaded the front door, and left behind a trail of muddy footprints. Following it, the two come across a door barred from the other side. Before they can force it open, Shoreline attacks. After dealing with them and bursting through the door, Elena finds and reads a note written by Avery. In the letter, Avery denounces Tew as a traitor, orders the dam to be destroyed in order to "cleanse New Devon", and has the treasure moved to his ship via a secret passage. Entering a large study with no other exits, the footprints Shoreline left have disappeared. Nate finds Sam's lighter on the floor and, knowing he left it on purpose to act as a clue, Nate surmises that the entrance to Avery's passage has to be where they're standing. While Nate unsuccessfully looks for a hidden switch, Elena brings his attention to a globe. After pressing a bloody fingerprint where Libertalia should be, a section of the floor lowers into a spiral staircase. They then descend the stairs and pass through a metal gate which shuts behind them, barring any backtracking. 3166th video
