Storylines
Part 4 of 7 in Sequence 5: The Perils of Business
Found in
- LambethLambeth is the quietest of Syndicate's boroughs, a stretch of low houses, markets and works on the south bank across from Westminster. The Templar Cletus Strain runs it in 1868, and it is home to Lambeth Palace and the Lambeth Asylum, where several major memories take place.
- Lambeth AsylumLambeth Asylum is a fictional mental hospital in Lambeth, funded by the Templars in 1868 and the setting for some of Syndicate's darkest memories. Jacob kills Dr. Elliotson here, Evie and Clara seek a cure here, and the Jack the Ripper story ends here.
Good to know
- Sequence 5, memory 4 of 7; global story order 18; played as Evie Frye.
- Region: Lambeth, around Lambeth Asylum.
- Giver: Florence Nightingale.
- Optional objectives: do not kill the peddler; hijack the pharmacist's cart in under 1 minute.
- Clara's children have been falling ill from tonics that no longer work.
- Nightingale gives Evie a written list of what the asylum needs before sending her out.
Objectives
Carry Clara inside and take Nightingale's list. Pickpocket a potion from the peddler who is overcharging a desperate customer rather than hurting him. Then find the pharmacist surrounded by Blighters and kill them. A Blighter drives off with the supply cart, so chase it, hijack it quickly and bring it back to the asylum.
Why Lambeth is struggling
With Elliotson dead and the asylum shut, counterfeit tonics and price gouging have filled the gap. Nightingale tells Evie she plans to push for regulation so genuine medicine can be handed out.
Outcome
Nightingale treats Clara, who recovers, and Lambeth gains a proper source of care. The title is Nightingale's well-known nickname.
Tips
The peddler is charging a desperate man everything he has. Lift a potion from his pocket instead of fighting him, since killing him fails the first optional objective. When the Blighter drives off with the supplies, cut across rather than following his exact route so you can board the cart inside the minute.
Nightingale's view
Nightingale says the district has been flooded with fakes since Elliotson's murder. She needs plenty of basic supplies and some rarer ingredients. Clara wakes long enough to worry about the children back in Babylon Alley.
- Clara O'DeaClara O'Dea is the young girl who runs London's network of street urchins and pickpockets. She trades her intelligence to Jacob and Evie Frye on one condition: that they free the children forced to work in the city's factories, which is the Child Liberation activity.
- Florence NightingaleFlorence Nightingale is stationed at Lambeth Asylum in 1868. In The Lady with the Lamp she treats Clara O'Dea and asks Evie to recover the supplies needed to replace the counterfeit tonics flooding Lambeth after John Elliotson's death.
- John ElliotsonDr John Elliotson is the Templar physician behind Starrick's Soothing Syrup, the addictive tonic dulling London's poor. Jacob Frye tracks him down through Sequence 4 with Charles Darwin's help, and he is the target of the memory Overdose at Lambeth Asylum.
