User blog comment:Suriken88/Ezio's speculated death in Embers/@comment-4651659-20111213220748
I don't believe he was poisoned. I'm going to follow the theory that the young man was to represent him from the past and right after he dies, he talks about that when he was young he had liberty, time and love but he never saw it.
