Dialogue

Ezio enters Leonardo's workshop, where Salaì is examining one of the recovered paintings.

• Ezio: Have you found anything?
• Salaì: Nothing is there, no pages, nothing.
• Ezio: That cannot be. Something must be special about them. Think.
• Salaì: I am done thinking. These paintings are a blank slate.
• Ezio: Salaì, doesn't Leonardo conceal his research?
• Salaì: He frequently writes backwards... Ezio, he also experimented with inks, including an ink that vanishes! But we can't see invisible ink... can we? Ezio, use your gift!
• Ezio: You know about that too?

Ezio speaks to Salaì as he sits by the fireplace.

• Ezio: I am going to solve this.
• Salaì: I hope so. I cannot take much more.

• Salaì: Do you think they would hurt him? Leonardo is terrified of violence.
• Ezio: Unfortunately, this world is a violent place.

• Salaì: Don't look at me, I cannot see them.

Ezio begins to search the paintings for clues.

Ezio speaks with a distraught Salaì

• Ezio: There are drawings on the paintings!
• Salaì: We were right!

He continues to scan the remaining paintings for more clues.

• Ezio: Found another!

This one has been searched entirely.

There were two in this one as well.

I see a drawing

Everything found.

I found one.

I found two drawings.

Got one!

• Salaì: You have finished with that one, I see.
• Ezio: I've found all the images. They seem to fit together.

  

  Ezio starts to search for the clues.

• Salaì: Draw them already!
• Ezio: Bring me paper and ink.

Ezio draws the images on sheets of paper.

• Salaì: Is that a map? Show me the entrance.
• Ezio: I must first position its pieces.
• Salaì: Wait! What about the burned paintings?
• Ezio: It is likely the missing parts will not be needed.
• Salaì: Care to bet on that?
• Ezio: No.

Ezio puts together the recovered pieces of the map.

• Ezio: Here! The entrance to the catacombs!
• Salaì: Go. Bring him back to me.

  The map pieces are put together.

• Ezio: Hang on, old friend. I am coming.

Outcome

Trivia

• To achieve 100% synchronization, the entrance to the catacombs must be discovered within 5 minutes.
• The title of this memory, Decoding Da Vinci, is likely a reference to the famous novel by Dan Brown, The Da Vinci Code.
