==Description==
==Description==
Ezio Auditore returned to his [[Palazzo Auditore|home]], confused about the people his [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|father]] associated himself with, and after witnessing several [[Soldier|guards]] running towards it.


When [[Ezio]] returns to the [[Palazzo Auditore]] after he had finished doing some errands, he finds that the Palazzo is empty. He is then attacked by [[Annetta]] who thinks he is a guard, Annetta, [[Maria Auditore da Firenze|Maria]] and [[Claudia Auditore da Firenze|Claudia]] tell him that Giovanni has been imprisoned at the Palazzo della Signoria. Ezio makes his way there and climps up the Palazzo while avoiding the guards he then sees Giovanni locked in his cell near the top of the tower. Giovanni says he knew that he knew what would happen, but not like it did and not as fast. He tells Ezio that in his office there is a hidden door and in a chest there is a letter which he should deliver to [[Uberto Alberti]].

Jailbird was a virtual representation of one of Ezio Auditore da Firenze's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus.

Description[edit | edit source]

Ezio Auditore returned to his home, confused about the people his father associated himself with, and after witnessing several guards running towards it.

Dialogue[edit | edit source]

Ezio returned to his home, after delivering the letters his father had given him.

He began to worry when no one answered, and after hearing a quiet noise behind him, Ezio moved just in time to avoid a vase from hitting him.

Claudia called from inside.

  • Claudia: Ezio...
  • Ezio: Claudia! Are you alright?
  • Claudia: Yes. But mother...
  • Annetta: She's in shock. They... When she resisted...
  • Ezio: It's not safe here. Is there a place you can take them?
  • Annetta: Yes. Yes! To my sister's.
  • Ezio: Good. Do that. In the meantime I'll go see my father.
  • Annetta: Be careful Messer Ezio! The guards were looking for you as well.

Ezio made his way to the Palazzo della Signoria without attracting any attention to himself, and then climbed the prison tower to find his father.

  • Giovanni: Ezio!
  • Ezio: Father! What's happened?
  • Giovanni: Took a bit of a beating, but I'm alright. What of your mother and sister?
  • Ezio: Safe now.
  • Giovanni: Annetta took them?
  • Ezio: Yes... Wait. You knew this would happen?!
  • Giovanni: Not the way it did... And not this soon. It doesn't matter now.
  • Ezio: What do you mean? Explain!
  • Giovanni: There's no time. Listen closely: Return to the house. In my office is a hidden door. Use your talent to find it. Beyond lies a chest, take EVERYTHING you find inside. Much of it may seem strange to you, but all of it is important. Do you understand?
  • Ezio: Yes.
  • Giovanni: Good. Among the contents is a letter – and with it some documents. I need you to take these documents to Messer Uberto. He was with me in the office this morning.
  • Ezio: The Gonfaloniere. I remember. Now please – tell me what's happening. Are the Pazzi behind this? There was a note at the pigeon coop. It sai–

They were interrupted by the sound of the door opening behind Giovanni's cell.

  • Giovanni: Go Ezio! Go now!

Outcome[edit | edit source]

Ezio spoke with his father through a prison window, and then left to find the chest in Giovanni's study, as his father commanded.

Trivia[edit | edit source]

  • Despite Ezio making mention of the pigeon coop letter, and presumably having read it himself due to his dialogue, the player never gets to see it at any point. The reason for this is unknown.
  • This memory is one of the few instances in the series where Eagle Vision is mentioned (albeit indirectly) by another character in the game.
