Ezio arrives at the Tiber Island Hideout where he finds La Volpe and Caterina. Niccolò Machiavelli then arrives and Ezio tells them all about the events that took place at the Castel Sant'Angelo. Ezio, along with Machiavelli, then leave the hideout, and begin to walk the streets of Rome. Ezio proposes that they recruit the enemies of the state into the Assassin Brotherhood, stating that they would arm those who have been disarmed by the Borgia. Machiavelli finally relents, telling Ezio to go and recruit their first novices.
Machiavelli: Looking for Ezio. What of Cesare and Rodrigo?
Ezio: Cesare rode off before I could get close to him and Rodrigo was somewhere else entirely.
Machiavelli: That is odd. Rodrigo is usually at the Castello.
La Volpe: Very odd indeed.
Machiavelli: What a waste. No offense.
Caterina: None taken.
Ezio: With Cesare gone to Urbino, we must build our forces.
Machiavelli: I thought we intended to strike now?
Caterina: Impossible. Cesare commands a massive army in Romagna. You would never reach him.
Ezio: I say we work here. In Roma. Erode the Borgia’s influence while restoring our own. And in fact, I want to begin right now. Volpe, bring Claudia and Bartolomeo d'Alviano here. Machiavelli, meet me outside.
Ezio turns to walk out of the Guild and passes the doctor.
Ezio: Take care of her.

Ezio consults Machiavelli.
Outside, Ezio and Machiavelli walk together crossing a bridge over the Tiber River.
Ezio: Look. The Borgia rob everything from the people to maintain power.
Machiavelli: What do you intend to do?
Ezio: We will recruit them to our cause.
Machiavelli: You can not be serious.
Ezio: To win this war, Machiavelli, we need loyal soldiers. By recruiting enemies of the state, we arm those who have been disarmed by the Borgia.
Machiavelli: Go then. Recruit our first novices.
Ezio speaks with a male recruit.
Ezio walks off into the streets to find citizens in need, who are being troubled by the Borgia. He fights with the citizens and together they defeat the Borgia.
Man: Assassin!
Ezio: The Liberation of Roma has begun. If you choose to flee, do so now, but if you choose to fight, stand with me against the Borgia.
Man: I am tired of hiding in the shadows. I will join you.
Ezio: Then seek Niccolò Machiavelli on Isola Tiberina (Tiber Island) and we will make you one of us. Their lies will no longer mask your truth.

Woman 1: That was close, grazie. Would you teach me to fight these vermin as you do?
Woman 2: Your cause is also mine, my life is at your service!
Woman 3: Your actions are truly noble! Allow my fury to strike with yours!
Outcome
Ezio recruits the first of the novices to the Assassins’ cause. More citizens can now be recruited throughout Rome in the same way.
