| Aguilar, María, and Ezio learned that Torquemada planned to use the Inquisition's activities during the ''[[Reconquista]]'' as a front for the Spanish Templars to search for and acquire any Pieces of Eden hidden in Spain, with the ultimate goal of using them to rule the country. In response, the Spanish Assassins established a headquarters in the Cazorla mountains, giving them a base of operations whence they could conduct raids and track Torquemada's actions.

| Android versions of the game open with Ezio speaking instead and have a very truncated prologue, featuring only the eavesdropping mission. The dialogue goes as follows:

| <blockquote>

| *'''Ezio:''' ''Following [[Assassin's Creed II: Discovery|the trail]] of [[Rodrigo Borgia]] has brought me all the way to Spain, for the Inquisition is controlled by Templars. Rodrigo's underlings.

| :Moving through a church courtyard and climbing the outer walls, Ezio entered the chancel from a rooftop door. Approaching an overhanging ledge to eavesdrop on the Inquisition meeting below between Torquemada and Ojeda, he was joined by Aguilar and Maria on a beam opposite him.
