Assassin's Creed II
Minerva appears as a hologram figure within The Vault, and reveals a little of the history of humanity and her people's origins.
She explains the disaster that the Earth suffered, and specifically referred to Ezio as the "prophet"; she revealed that she was not speaking with him, but through him. Minerva apparently knew that Desmond would one day relive Ezio's memories, as she seemingly addressed the camera (or Desmond's perception of the scene through the Animus) throughout her monologue, and concluded by saying, "the rest is up to you... Desmond", much to his ancestor's confusion.
Trivia
- Minerva is the Roman name for the Greek goddess Athena imported from the Etruscans who called her Menrva, meaning that the people of ancient Greek, Roman and Etruscan times thought Those Who Came Before were gods.
- Minerva is also one of the statuettes that must be collected to place with her 'partner' Jupiter on one of the pedestals at the villa Ezio's great-great-grandfather built in Monteriggioni.
