Assassinate Tomás Torquemada was a virtual representation of one of Ezio Auditore da Firenze's genetic memories, relived by Desmond Miles in 2012 through the Animus 2.0.[2]
Description
Ezio made his way through Tomás de Torquemada dwelling to assassinate him.
Dialogue
Ezio cornered Tomás in a hallway.
- Ezio: You are a vile and pitiful man, Torquemada. And your alliance with the Spaniard has disqualified you from your God's love.
- Torquemada: You dare to lecture me? I am the hammer of heretics, the light of España, the honor of my order. I follow none but God's command.
- Ezio: All lies. Rodrigo Borgia is an unbeliever like me, and yet you lavish him with favors.
- Torquemada: A fantastic tale, and a spurious one. Borgia is one of three Papal candidates this year. And he is as devoted to God as I am.
- Ezio: There's no better hiding place than in the shadow of virtue. You are as blind to his evil as you are to yours.
- Torquemada: So what will you do with me, heathen? Murder me? Slit my throat and bathe in my blood?
- Ezio: No... I prefer a quick, clean kill.
A gate dropped, preventing Ezio from reaching Torquemada.
- Torquemada: Guards!
- Ezio: You will discover the truth about Rodrigo Borgia in time. But by then it will be too late.
Ezio left and reunited with the Spanish Assassins Luis de Santángel and Raphael Sánchez.
- Ezio: Forgive me, my friends. Torquemada escaped. But not before enlightening me on one or two points. He is a petty man, consumed by self-deception.
- Luis: What of his connection to the Spaniard?
- Ezio: He admires Rodrigo Borgia, but I do not believe Torquemada is a Templar himself. Merely a credulous old sycophant. Perhaps this is for the best. Torquemada's death would have caused more turmoil than it ended.
- Luis: We will work hard to distance him from the Queen, while we protect ourselves from the Inquisitors.
- Ezio: Best of luck, my new friends. And send me word when Christoffa returns.
- Sanchez: He has promised to write me the moment he arrives. I will forward a copy of any letter he sends.
- Ezio: I look forward to it...
Ezio departed.
Outcome
Ezio failed to assassinate Tomás de Torquemada, and returned to Italy in search of the stolen Apple of Eden.
