Arriving at the port of Constantinople in 1512, Ezio overheard a herald alerting the population about a large bounty put on Ezio's head by the Ottoman soldiers. Upon hearing this, being unsure whether Ahmet had kidnapped Sofia yet, Ezio decided to travel to her shop to investigate. He found the place trashed with multiple bodies of dead Byzantine soldiers and Sofia missing. At the scene, Ezio also found Yusuf Tazim's dead body on a bench with a dagger embedded to his back and a note attached to it. After giving Yusuf a final blessing, Ezio turned to the Turkish assassins and asked them to help him kill ahmed.
===Infiltrating the Arsenal===
Ezio assassinates the surrounding Byzantine guards by himself or his Assassins in the Arsenal Port, leading him to Ahmet hiding in the central fortress. He converses with him about his treachery as a Templar, to which he replies that he was only trying to bring peace. Not in a position to negotiate, Ezio decides to trade with Ahmet: the five keys for Sofia Sartor.
===Galata Tower===
Ezio, along with the other Assassins, approached Ahmet and brought him the five keys in a red pouch at the border of Constantinople. Once they trade, Ahmet reveals that Sofia is on top the Galata Tower. Once Ezio is able to climb up the Tower he assassinates the guard, seizing the bag covering Sofia’s face and discovering that it was imposter. He saw that the real Sofia was on ground level getting choked by a guard. Suspecting that it would take too long to run there, he parachutes off the structure.
