Yeah this day has been pretty awful for Connor, as Charles begins to de-claw him.

I'm not sure if it was mentioned in Shaun's archives, but I believe Ziio was intended to be the next clan mother of her people - which is probably why Silas had given Ziio her own escort (that Haytham ambushed), and I also love that Ziio sort of bossed Haytham around...

Ziio: FOLLOW
Haytham: O-Okay... please have my child

:p
