  • Ezio: I am content with my own vices, grazie (thank you).
  • Yusuf: So, what's on your mind, Ezio?
  • Ezio: Tell me more about the Templars. You call them Byzantines, yet the Byzantine Empire was overthrown sixty years ago.
  • Yusuf: These men are remnants of a line loyal to the cause of the last Emperor, Constantine XI. Who leads them now, however, I cannot say.
  • Ezio: Capisco. (I see.) I suppose it is up to me to find out.

    Harika! (Excellent!)
