The Search for Cesare Borgia was an event after the Liberation of Rome in which the Assassins attempted to find out where Cesare was imprisoned, with the intention of assassinating him. [1]

Interrogations

Immediately after the imprisonment and escape of Cesare Borgia from the Castel Sant'Angelo, Cesare was sent to a different prison. His location was kept a secret and only Pope Julius II and King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Aragon and Castile were allowed to know of his location. Not even the Grand Master of the Assassin Order, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, was allowed to know his location.[1]

Ezio and Machiavelli immediately started their search for the Templar Grand Master, tracking down and interrogating ex-lovers and other associates of the Borgia family. Their first destination was the house of Vannozza dei Cattanei, Cesare's mother. However, she was not able to give any new information to the Assassins, and they set off to interrogate Giulia Farnese, Rodrigo Borgia's last mistress. She too was unable to provide the Assassins with useful information. After that, Ezio and Machiavelli visited Charlotte d'Albret, Cesare's wife and the mother of one of his children. After a brief conversation, they left her to her own devices, still without a clue about Cesare's whereabouts.[1]

Ambush

While on their way back to Tiber Island, Ezio and Machiavelli discussed the use of the Apple to find Cesare, but Ezio was hesitant, wanting to rely on his own skills, and not just on the Apple. However, their discussion was soon interrupted by Bruno, one of Machiavelli's spies, who told them the Borgia diehards had captured Claudia Auditore da Firenze. The Assassins made their way to the Borgia hideout, only to find themselves ambushed by the diehards. During a brief conversation, the diehards revealed that Bruno was actually working for them, and that they in turn worked for Micheletto Corella. Ezio and Machiavelli managed to fight of the diehards and free Claudia without too much trouble and quickly made their way to their hideout, deciding they would try to find Micheletto, as he would lead them to Cesare.[1]

Micheletto

He was then taken to Florence and locked up in the Palazzo della Signoria.[1]

Meanwhile, Ezio and Leonardo da Vinci traveled to Gaspar Torella, Cesare's personal doctor, to ask him about Cesare's whereabouts. However, both attempts proved futile. Machiavelli soon traveled back to Rome to meet Ezio. He informed Ezio of Micheletto's escape from prison. Borgia-diehards had climbed the prisons roof and lowered a rope to allow Micheletto to climb out of his window and escape. The bars in front of the window were removed with a file, which was smuggled in by the priest that took his confession. The Assassins now decided to find Micheletto and follow him to Cesare, and Ezio agreed to use the Apple to do so.[1]
