All Roads Lead To...
All Roads Lead To... is a memory in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood.
Ezio Auditore meets Bartolomeo d'Alviano at the barracks to discover Cesare Borgia's whereabouts.
Dialogue
- Bartolomeo: My men tell me Cesare rallies his best soldiers in front of the main gate into Roma.
- Ezio: Gather the Assassins. We'll face him together.
United
Ezio and the Assassins reach the city gate as Cesare waits with his men.
- Cesare: All of Italia shall be united, and you will rule beside me.
He sees Ezio and the Assassins standing together.
- Cesare: Come to watch my triumph? Soon Micheletto and his army will arrive. But you shall be dead before then.
Cesare sends his guards towards the Assassins.
- Ezio: Insieme per la vittoria! (Together for victory!)
- Assassins: Vittoria agli Assassini! (Victory to the Assassins!)
The Assassins attack Cesare's guards, Cesare stands outside the closed gates watching and insulting Ezio.
- Cesare: My men will never fail me. They know what awaits them if they do.
Kill him.
Soon you will pass from this Earth and my dominions will be returned to me.
Rip the Assassin's throat out.
I want the Assassin name to die today.
Your uncle fought back. Look what happened to him.
Troops
Ezio and the Assassins succeed in killing all of Cesare's men. However, they see a troop of soldiers approaching.
- Ezio: Throw down your arms, Cesare Borgia.
- Cesare: Micheletto's troops mass behind me. We will take back my city once and for all.
- Ezio: This is not your city anymore.
The troops which Cesare considered to be Micheletto's turn out to be Fabio Orsini's.
- Fabio Orsini: By order of Pope Julius II, I arrest you, Cesare Borgia, for the crimes of murder, betrayal and incest.
- Cesare: No! No! No! No! This is not how it ends! Chains will not hold me! I will not die by the hand of man!
Hideout
Ezio returns to the Assassins' hideout, where he tells Leonardo about Cesare's arrest.
- Ezio: It was the manner in which he said it, "Chains will not hold me."
- Leonardo: If you are so worried, there is a way to find out.
Leonardo gives Ezio the Apple.
- Ezio: No, it is too powerful. It must be hidden outside the domain of men.
- Leonardo: What a shame, hiding a masterpiece where no one will ever see it.
- Ezio: And yet... what if he meant what he said? I cannot risk it.
Ezio places his hand on the artifact, it activates, and he seems to have a vision.
- Ezio: Cesare was right. I have to leave.
- Leonardo: What about your friends?
- Ezio: I built this Brotherhood to last, with or without me.
- Leonardo: What do you intend to do?
- Ezio: Plant a seed. Here. A gift.
- Leonardo: If this is goodbye, then keep your money. I do not want it.
- Ezio: We will see each other again, you have my word. Buona fortuna, (good luck) my oldest friend.
And take the money. On your meager salary you will need it. - Leonardo: My patron has been arrested after all.
Outcome
Cesare Borgia is arrested and taken away, and Rome is liberated from the control of the Borgia.
Trivia
- Ezio can use only the Apple, no other weapons. He can however, use his recruits.
