Behind the scenes

This memory's events occur immediately after the fall of the Crows in Rome, many years after the Siege of Monteriggioni in 1500. However, the memory's journal entry describes its events as also occurring shortly after Ezio and Mario Auditore presented the Apple of Eden to Machiavelli with the idea to send it to Forlì, which canonically occurred in 1488. Reinforcing this inconsistency is that the Battle of Forlì happens soon after this sequence, but the game has removed the date.
